	Palestine Coins and Banknotes - History of Palestine
		For the 400 years prior to 1918, Palestine was a small part of the Ottoman (Osmanli) Empire after their conquest of the Mamelukes in 1517 by Salim I. Since then, the Jews of the Diaspora sought refuge in Palestine from Christian persecution and expulsion despite spasmodic ill-treatment by their Muslim rulers.
		Legally, the Palestine Mandate was of the "Class A" Mandates in which the mandatory was regarded as the guardian of a people not yet able to stand by itself and which was to be trained for self-government.
		In May, 1939, the (Colonial Secretary Malcolm) MacDonald White Paper was issued, providing for the limit of 15,000 Jewish immigrants annually for a period of five years, as well as empowering the High Commissioner to dramatically limit the purchase of land by Jews.

	Myths & Facts - Israel’s Roots
		The term "Palestine" is believed to be derived from the Philistines, an Aegean people who, in the 12th Century B.C.E. settled along the Mediterranean coastal plain of what are now Israel and the Gaza Strip.
		Palestine was never an exclusively Arab country, although Arabic gradually became the language of most the population after the Muslim invasions of the seventh century.
		For many centuries, Palestine was a sparsely populated, poorly cultivated and widely-neglected expanse of eroded hills, sandy deserts and malarial marshes.

	Palestine Riots and Massacres of 1929
		In the summer of 1929 the Arabs of Palestine initiated rioting and massacres against the Jewish population in several towns.
		The occurrence of the riots did tremendous damage to the Zionist cause, far beyond the actual loss of lives and property, because they it seem that Palestine was unsafe for the Jews after all, just like everywhere else.
		Though only a small number of Jews had immigrated to Palestine under the mandate, the British accepted at face value the claim of the Mufti that these immigrants, rather than the world economic depression, were at fault for the real or imagined woes of the Arabs of Palestine.

	Palestine Arab Riots 1920-21
		Haj Amin al-Husseini emerged as one of the leaders of the 1920 Arab riots in Palestine and incited the masses to murder Jews and loot their homes.

	Is Jordan Palestine? - article by Daniel Pipes
		Palestine was administered in a myriad of divisions under the Babylonians, Persians, Ptolomies, Seleucids and Romans, sometimes combining east and west sides, sometimes not.
		Palestine lived in the hearts of those who loved it, and that was in a realm without boundaries.
		In Palestine it includes, quite beyond the river and its thickets, the very lowest spot on the face of earth; extremely hot and dry temperatures; steep, forbidding inclines; and few passes-all of which makes for a major natural boundary between west and east bank.

		Segev, however, not only fails to report the evidence that the riots were known about in advance, and likely encouraged, by some British officials, but cites just a few of the words that Meinertzhagen actually wrote.
		Even though he often quotes British officials, civil and military, in London and Palestine, uttering what are clearly antisemitic or anti-Zionist remarks (though some of the worst remarks are not given, particularly for the later period), Segev consistently minimizes their significance, or claims that they are unimportant, or distracts us quickly with still other details.
		Mandatory Palestine was not in-tended to be a colony to be run however the British thought fit; they were there not as colonial overlords but as the possessors of a Mandate from the League of Nations; they are to be judged, therefore, by another standard: did they encourage, as they were obligated to, Jewish immigration?

	Haycraft Commission of Inquiry into the 1920-21 Arab Riots
		The fundamental cause of the Jaffa riots and the subsequent acts of violence was a feeling among the Arabs of discontent with, and hostility to, the Jews, due to political and economic causes, and connected with Jewish immigration, and with their conception of Zionist policy as derived from Jewish exponents.
		The immediate cause of the Jaffa riots on the 1st May was an unauthorized demonstration of Bolshevik Jews, followed by its clash with an authorized demonstration of the Jewish Labour Party.
		While certain of the educated Arabs appear to have incited the mob, the notables on both sides, whatever their feelings may have been, aided the authorities to allay the trouble.
