b. the arab league is forced to disband.
c. great britain secures colonies in arab territories.
d. arab nationalism loses support from powerful arab leaders.

Explanation:

When Israel was established in 1948, it led to immediate and long - term conflicts. The Arab - Israeli wars (such as the 1948 Arab - Israeli War, 1956 Suez Crisis, 1967 Six - Day War, 1973 Yom Kippur War etc.) were a direct consequence of the establishment of Israel. The Arab League still exists today, so option B is incorrect. Great Britain had already been involved in the Middle East in a different colonial context before 1948, and after 1948, its influence was waning in some aspects, so option C is incorrect. Arab nationalism actually gained momentum in the post - 1948 era as a response to the Israeli - Arab conflict in some ways, so option D is incorrect.

Answer:

A. A series of Arab - Israeli wars begins.
