Only if it is a "Palestinian Flag". The flag is actually a flag of the ARAB NATIONALIST MOVEMENT and same identical flag was used by by two rulers in Mecca and the "Mashriq" in 1917. You're not proposing that Palestine is now in Mecca too, are you? Ha ha ha check mate:Egypt occupied Jaffa in 1937?
Link?
Jordan occupied the West Bank and Egypt occupied Gaza after the 1948 Arab Israeli War.
OK, so why the Palestinian flag in Jaffa in 1937?

Hussein bin Ali, GCB (حسین بن علی Ḥusayn bin ‘Alī ; 1854 – 4 June 1931) was the Sharif and Emir of Mecca from 1908 until 1917, when he proclaimed himself and was internationally recognized as King of the Kingdom of Hejaz. He initiated the Arab Revolt in 1916 against the increasingly nationalistic Ottoman Empire during the course of the First World War. In 1924, when the Ottoman Caliphate was abolished, he further proclaimed himself Caliph of all Muslims. He ruled Hejaz until 1924, when, defeated by Abdul Aziz al Saud, he abdicated the kingdom and other secular titles to his eldest son Ali.

The flag was used by Sharif Hussein by 1917 at the latest and quickly became regarded as the flag of the Arab national movement in the Mashriq.
