what immediate effect did the formation of Israel have? A.the transformation of Palestinian territories B.the rise of extremist parties like hamas C.the beginning of a series of regional wars D.the signing of a peace treaty with egypt-my answe is A.

Well, not so much. Palestinians still have some territory, but what once was Palestine is now Israel. I think C is correct. So both are right as worded here, but the wars have marked the entire era since the founding of Israel in 1948.

Hi reed you getting along with the other guy?

You are correct, option A is the immediate effect of the formation of Israel. To understand why, let's break down the other options and explain why they are not the immediate effects:

B. The rise of extremist parties like Hamas:
The rise of extremist parties like Hamas is not an immediate effect of the formation of Israel because Hamas was founded in 1987, nearly 40 years after the establishment of Israel in 1948. So, it cannot be considered an immediate effect.

C. The beginning of a series of regional wars:
While the formation of Israel did lead to conflicts between Israel and neighboring Arab countries such as the Arab-Israeli War in 1948, the Six-Day War in 1967, and the Yom Kippur War in 1973, these wars were not an immediate effect. They occurred years after Israel's establishment, and thus, option C cannot be considered the immediate effect.

D. The signing of a peace treaty with Egypt:
Israel's peace treaty with Egypt was signed in 1979, more than 30 years after the establishment of Israel. Therefore, it is not an immediate effect of Israel's formation.

A. The transformation of Palestinian territories:
The immediate effect of the formation of Israel was the transformation of the Palestinian territories. With the creation of Israel, there was a significant impact on the Palestinian population and their territories. Many Palestinians were displaced, and a large number became refugees, leading to the transformation of the Palestinian territories.

In summary, you are correct that option A, the transformation of Palestinian territories, is the immediate effect of the formation of Israel.
