		The uprising of the peasants in the Ukraine has been ascribed by most historians to their oppression by Jewish leaseholders, as well as to the privileges granted to the latter by the kings and nobles of Poland.
		But in the subsequent revolt, under Pavlyuk (1637), 200 Jews, mostly leaseholders and farmers of taxes, were killed in Pereyaslav, Lokhvitza, and Lubny, and many synagogues were destroyed; and when the Polish government restricted some of the rights of the Cossacks their animosity toward the Jews was still further increased.
		The flame of revolution spread with great rapidity throughout the Ukraine, and Chmielnicki, encouraged by Ladislaus himself, concluded a treaty with the Khan of the Crimea.

		Big Foot and his people lived on the Cheyenne River Reservation in present-day South Dakota and were among the most enthusiastic believers in the Ghost Dance ceremony when it arrived among the Lakota in the spring of 1890.
		The hunger and misery that had followed the final break-up of their great reservation in 1889 made the Lakota keenly receptive to the Ghost Dance message of messianic renewal, and the movement swept rapidly through their encampments, causing local Indian Agents to react with alarm.
		At the Standing Rock reservation, where Sitting Bull was suspected of encouraging the Ghost Dance in order to provoke an uprising, the crisis led to bloodshed when Indian police sent to arrest the aging holy man killed him in a confrontation with his followers.

	Arab Revolt (in Palestine) - Zionism and Israel -Encyclopedia / Dictionary/Lexicon of Zionism/Israel/
		The "classic" Zionist-socialist analysis of the roots of the uprising, adopted by non-socialists as well, is that the feudalists and Imams felt threatened by the changes introduced by Zionism in the economy and politics of Palestine.
		If, during their uprising, the Arabs of Palestine had confined their violence to British targets, it is unlikely that the Jews would have been so concerned to develop a military defense capability.
		The great issue of the post war period that built pressure for a Jewish state were the 250,000 displaced persons in Europe, of whom the US pressured Britain to admit 100,000.
