Margo shalom, I would use:
ISRAEL-ARAB WAR, 1948-1949 (Deir Yassin) or ISRAEL-ARAB WAR, 1948-1949 - Deir Yassin As Jewish libraries we should refrain as much as possible from using Palestine . Instead: Eretz Yisrael Land of Israel British Mandate of Palestine Palestinian Authority We, as educators as well as librarian, should never present Palestine as though it is or was ever an independent State. To the Jewish People it was Eretz Yisrael. To the Christians it was the Holy Land. To the Arabs it was part of Southern Syria. To the Greeks and Romans it was Palestina (because of the Philistines). To the British it was Palestine. So as Jews, let's us Jewish concepts and terminology.
