Jewish Immigration To Palestine 1945-1948 The Jewish migration to Israel is one of the most important pivoting points in the issue of the foundation of the Israeli nation. Zionism is the main driving idea that led to the Jewish migration to Israel. The period before 1948 was the period when Zionism along with the Zionist lobbies around the world were working to promote mass migration to Israel even before the foundation of the state of Israel. The migration to Palestine was occurring under the effect of huge suffering of the Jews across Europe. In the period from 1920 to 1929 there was a slow migration to Palestine. This period is followed by the Nazi takeover, and a huge tide of anti-Semitism that led to the murder of millions of Jews especially in Germany in the period from 1941 to 1943. The latter period, had the holocaust as a huge reason for Jewish migration to Palestine. Anti-Semitism and the holocaust provided the political reason to the Zionist to perform huge public relations campaigns through news presses and media. This campaign was to promote the reasons for the necessity of providing an alternative nation to the Jews across the world in Palestine, in order to prevent such mass murder in the future as claimed. In the region of the Arab world, there was an anxiety from the trend of the Jewish migration to Palestine. In the period of 1939 the British authorities stopped the migration to Palestine, leaving the Jews under the growing pressures of anti-Semitism.
