[2] As a Result of the riots, Trust between the British, Jews, and Arabs eroded. One consequence was that the Jewish Community Increased Moves towards an autonomous Infrastructure and Security Apparatus parallel to that of the British Administration. In its Wake,. sheikhs of 82 villages round the city and Jaffa, claiming to represent 70% of the population, issued a document protesting the demonstrations against the Jews.

[1] Communiqués had been issued about foreseeable troubles between Arabs, and Arabs and Jews. To Weizmann and the Jewish leadership, these developments were reminiscent of instructions that Russian generals had issued on the eve of pogroms. [6] In the meantime, local Arab expectations had been raised to a pitch by the declaration of the Syrian Congress on 7 March of the independence of Greater Syria in the Kingdom of Syria, with Faisal as its king, [7] that included the.

The Editor of the newspaper Suriya al-Janubia (Southern Syria. ), Aref al-Aref, another Arab Club member, delivered his speech on horseback at the Jaffa Gate. [12] The nature of his speech is disputed. According to Benny Morris, he said "If we do not use force against the.
