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.

I agreed with the fact that England were fools. However thew jews weren't in the right to just move in and demand that land back, and England should never have decided to appease them. They lost that land a long time ago, from people who didn't use extrenal help with anything (like the Assyrians and then ROmans, etc.). The Palestinian population however had been there for jsut as long, in fact they were the very same jews who just happened to stay and assimilate.

It would be like native americans going up to DC or New York then demanding they have their land back, then have all of the EU give it to them and supply them with armaments to somehow smash the US army. It's jsut dumb, they lost their land and that's that, there is no good claim to it whatsoever.

The jews should never have gone back to the middle east since they had no claim to the land whatsoever.
