Best Answer

The Arabs in the Middle East flocked to Palestine in their tens of thousands when Jews began developing it in the mid to late 19th century. However, despite benefitting enormously, Arabs regularly attacked Jewish civilians, often whole villages, and perpetrated the most appalling violence and bloodshed. A typical example is the Hebron Massacre of 1929.

The reaction of Arabs living in Israel to the increase in Jewish Immigration was threefold:

-- complain about their influx to any international body that would listen;

-- create Arab paramilitaries to fight the Jews and have several pogroms to make the Jews fearful;

-- sell them as much land as they were willing to buy, at whatever price

they were willing to pay.
