The State of Israel declared independence as the British Mandate ended. Holocaust survivors were among those who sought refuge and rebuilt lives there, after years of blocked routes and displaced-persons camps. The declaration occurred in a settler-colonial and imperial context in which Palestinian Arabs also faced dispossession and mass displacement during the Nakba. The Holocaust and the Nakba are distinct histories; the latter cannot be reduced to an effect of the former.
