I find it quiet telling that all these museums and historical documentation depicting Arab life in pre-Israel time, never extend beyond a 100 years back, all start at some point 2-3 decades after the Jewish community has already started widely rebuilding and investing in the land.

How come these museums have no history preceding Zionism?
