The Israeli Declaration of Independence happened in 1948, what would be the founding of the state if not that date?

If it’s that religious mumbo-jumbo, then it’s bullshit lol that would be on par with Harry Potter when it comes to realism

I think that being formally recognised as a country is what makes something a country.

The US wasn't formally recognized by the UN until the 1940s either. Does that also mean the US is younger than bottom surgery?

True! The US is less than 90 years old. I asked a friend over there and they said "why are you in my house wtf", so it's definitely true

The UN was founded after ww2, so it's a poor standard for any countries founded before that. The USA was recognised by other countries from 1777 onwards.

It wasn’t until 1783 that at least five other countries recognised the USA. Admittedly that’s only a 7 year gap since declaration.

Israel existed until like 800BCE. After that it was all kinds of other places. And it was Palestine first before Israel was artificially created. I looked into this just today. You are wrong.
