I was under the impressoin that those riots were due to the fact that England was already considering the whole Israel idea, not the cause of it.

No, it was because of Zionism and the rapidly growing Jewish population, which the Arabs correctly understood to be a threat to the existing character of Palestine. Each side accused the British of supporting the other, especially after they bungled the security situation, but that was neither here nor there. Violence between the two sides was inevitable.
