Found in the Churchill Archive, the Palestinians knew exactly what was going on early on.

[montelatici]

The Palestinian leadership knew that the Zionists planned to expropriate them. They were amazingly peaceful at the time considering they were facing an existential threat by the Jews supported by the most powerful empire at the time, the British.

Report on Palestine Administration

Foreword

The Palestine Arab Case against Zionist Aggression has repeatedly been submitted to the League of Nations and to the World Public Opinion in general and that of England in particular, by several deputations that have been delegated for this purpose to the League, to England and to the Lausanne Peace Conference, by the Arab inhabitants of Palestine, who form over 91% of its population; as well as by the different branches of the Palestine Arab Congress in that country and abroad. That case may be summed up in the following:- The injustice of creating a National Home for the Jews in Palestine which is the well-established home of the Palestinian Arabs (Moslems and Christians) and the impracticability of training its inhabitants in self-government and preparing them for independence, which is the principal aim of the mandatory system, as long as the Jewish National Home Policy is in progress.

…

Conclusion

The Palestine Arabs met this oppressive policy with patience. Their opposition has been conducted on constitutional methods. But this attitude of theirs has been both misrepresented by the Government and misunderstood by the Mandatory. The daily slight frictions between Arab and Jew, whose ideas, principles, customs and modes of life take diametrically divergent lines cultivate and solidify hatred between both communities, and there must come a time when it will accumulate to such a degree as to defy all moral or political restraints. It is a gross error to believe that Arab and Jew may come to an understanding if only each of them exchanges his coat of extremism for another of moderation. When the principles underlying two movements do clash, it is futile to expect their meeting halfway. The Zionist Policy is best described by Dr. Eder, ex-chairman of the Zionist Executive in Palestine, when he was asked to do so by the Court of Inquiry for the Jaffa disturbances of May 1921: “There can only be one National Home in Palestine, and that a Jewish one, and no equality in the partnership between Jews and Arabs, but a Jewish predominance as soon as the number of that race are sufficiently increased.”

Arab Demand

The Arab demand may be summed up in the following words: The establishment in Palestine of a National Constitutional Government in which the two Communities, Arab and Jewish, will be represented in proportion to their numbers as they existed before the application of the Zionist Policy.

Funny how unlimited Immigration can conquer a country and crush its culture and people.
Ask any American Indian what Immigration does.

Then comes the 3rd, well read and honest one. He says:


"Look brothers, they're Jews and they have been present among us as long as we remember. Their synagogues are being renewed time-after time and they come to die and be buried here. They actually use words from our common ancient language and keep the ways of our ancestors.
THEY'RE OUR BROTHERS who have been expelled from our homeland numerous times.

And BTW look at our religious writings, the prophecies - we were promised they'd come back home!

No let's welcome our brothers, and make sure we stop massacring them because of their religion , like we did numerous times just a century ago.
LET'S SHARE OUR SACRED PLACES, and make them feel home rather than make them submit to us.
This way we can start moving forward together rather than fight for land'

 

[montelatici]

An Arabian (not a Palestinian) endearing himself to the European Jews thinking they might bring money, is not honest, and even if he were, the Jews were having none of it. They were intent on ruling over the non-Jews.

"Dr. Eder, ex-chairman of the Zionist Executive in Palestine, when he was asked to do so by the Court of Inquiry for the Jaffa disturbances of May 1921: “There can only be one National Home in Palestine, and that a Jewish one, and no equality in the partnership between Jews and Arabs, but a Jewish predominance as soon as the number of that race are sufficiently increased.”

That's not surprising considering the history of Islamism and its virulent hatreds for Jews. Barely one hundred years earlier, Jews and Christians lived with the presence of dhimmitude under Islamist fascism.

So now it's all about money??!

Going forward together can be achieved in many ways without the need for big amounts of money - change in the attitude is a key.

What You fail to recognize is that Palestinian Jews were massacred numerous times by the Palestinian Arabs - their CLOSEST BROTHERS just in the recent 100 years prior to Your quote. Jews were present in Palestine long before political Zionism - and were 2nd class dhimmis who had to submit by paying special Jewish taxes, and were banned from their Holy sites.

You cannot deny Jews were discriminated against by their fellow Palestinians, for solely being Jews, even when spoke Arabic.

A few Jews from Europe migrated to Palestine after 1492, from Spain and Portugal. The laws were Ottoman laws, not Palestinian laws. The Jews spoke Maghreb/Andalus Arabic, almost a different language, they were "different" from the native Muslims and Christians and even then the native people did not trust the intentions of the Jews. They were, in the end, quite right to not trust the Jews, don't you think?

Check Your facts again, Jewish presence was long before 1492, there were Jews from the times of the 2nd Temple and Jews from almost ALL Arab countries - whole communities that were called "Mustaravim'.
Mustaravim were considered by Arabs as being exactly like them- except for religion...still targeted dhimmis.

Your explanation?
( but don't give me Your opinion, give me substance.)

 

[rylah]

What are the 'Palestinian laws' You were talking about?

 

[montelatici]

There were no Palestinian laws. The law was Ottoman law.

 

[rylah]

And BTW they were speaking Jewish Arabic, with many Hebrew words.
If Palestinians were true to their original (before Christian/Muslim occupation) culture they'd recognize a very close language, and preserved culture...they themselves almost entirely lost.

 

[montelatici]

The Sephardic Jews were culturally Maghreb/Moorish/Andalus in culture and language. Far different.

163. The Arabs of Palestine consider themselves as having a "natural" right to that country, although they have not been in possession of it as a sovereign nation.


166. The desire of the Arab people of Palestine to safeguard their national existence is a very natural desire. However, Palestinian nationalism, as distinct from Arab nationalism, is itself a relatively new phenomenon, which appeared only after the division of the "Arab rectangle" by the settlement of the First World War.

The Sephardic Jews were culturally Maghreb/Moorish/Andalus in culture and language. Far different.

Another subject you know jack shit about. Wow.

Another subject you know jack shit about. Wow.

Having lived in Tunisia as a child ( my father being with the U.S. defense attache' office there) and being stationed in Saudi Arabia while in the U.S. Army (after a tour in Vietnam), I know far more than you, moron.

 

[rylah]

The Sephardic Jews were culturally Maghreb/Moorish/Andalus in culture and language. Far different.

And when they came to Israel, The Yemenites, Sephardic, Ashkenazi and Palestinian Jews had the same culture and kept using Arameic and Hebrew words mixed with foreign languages of course.
But the similarity in tradition, heritage, customs was striking.

This is even more elaborated by the study You've linked.
If Palestinians didn't forsake their roots they'd hear and see simillar people - in many ways.

But for some reason the Arab Palestinians preferred the occupiers' identity and culture.

 

[rylah]

In other words Sephardic, Moroccan, Yemenite nad Ashkenazi Jews were more 'Palestinian' culturally, than the Arab Palestinians who lost almost all connections to their roots and original culture.

As a child. LOL. Antisemtic psycho thinks being in a middle eastern Muslim majority country for a few months as a CHILD, establishes him as an authority on the origins of the indigenous Jews of the Middle East, who are direct descendants of those that fled the destruction of the Temples.

Inside the Jewish community 'at home' in Esfahan, Iran - CNN.com
history
There have been Jews in Iran for more than 2,500 years. Many left the country after the Islamic Revolution in 1979 that brought Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini to power. Khomeini said Iran wanted to destroy Israel, but he also issued a fatwa, a religious decree, saying that Iranian Jews were different to those in Israel and should be considered an integral part of the Islamic Republic.

2,500 Year Old Jewish Tablets Discovered in Iraq | HuffPost

In 587 BC, it was the Babylonians, under King Nebuchadnezzar II, who destroyed Jerusalem, the capital of the Kingdom of Judah. They also destroyed the Temple of Jerusalem - the “House of God” - built by King Solomon, as the centrepiece of Jewish faith. It stood on Jerusalem’s Mount Zion for almost 400 years. After the destruction, the legendary Ark of the Covenant, that had once housed the Ten Commandments, disappeared. According to Jewish tradition, it was hidden by the prophet Jeremiah. It has never been discovered. The Biblical books of 2 Chronicles and 2 Kings describes how the Babylonians took the elite of the Jewish people into captivity. Psalm 137:1 records the anguish of the captives: “By the rivers of Babylon we sat and wept, when we remembered Zion”. After the Babylonian empire was defeated by the Persians from modern Iran, the prophets Ezra and Nehemiah led a minority of Jewish exiles back to Jerusalem, motivated by an ancient version of Zionism.

Now for the first time, one hundred and ten, 2,500 year old Babylonian tablets have been discovered in Iraq which provide a glimpse of Jewish life in Babylonian exile. Put simply, the tablets corroborate the Biblical tale. They describe a town called Al-Yahudu i.e., “the village of the Jews”, by the river Chebar, mentioned in Ezekiel 1:1. They also attest to Judaic names such as “Gedalyahu”, “Hanan”, “Dana”, “Shaltiel” and a man with the same name as Israel’s current Prime Minister, “Netanyahu”. The “yahu” ending to these names is called “theophoric”, meaning, they attest to a belief in the God of the Torah, by including part of God’s name in people’s personal names. The tablets also record everyday business transactions and witness to the Jewish return to Jerusalem (Nehemiah 6:15-16), as commemorated in personal names such as “Yashuv Zadik”, meaning, “the righteous shall return [to Zion]”.
