Bibliographical note
Funding Information:Since the very beginning of 1948, owing to an escalation of violence between Jews and Arabs, a process of re-examination of US policy towards Palestine had taken place. The suggestion by the Department of State for a provisional trusteeship intending to postpone implementation of partition was supported by President Truman.

However, the Soviet Union did all within its power to prevent the partition resolution from being altered.
