Zionists vs. British
Why?
The British prevented Jewish immigrants from entering Palestine.
The British foresaw tension between Arabs and Jews escalating to a civil war if Jewish immigration continued.
Imagine you're hosting a party, and guests keep arriving even after your home is full. As the host, you'd probably stop letting people in to avoid chaos and potential damage.
Haganah's Role
Who?
A Jewish paramilitary organization.
What?
They tried to thwart British plans and aid illegal immigration.
Imagine a secret group helping friends sneak into your already-packed party through the back door. Haganah was kinda like that secret group!
Arabs' Perspective
Major Concerns
They opposed the idea of a Jewish state.
Feared more Jewish immigrants, especially from Nazi Europe, would want even more land.
Believed Western powers should address the Holocaust and settle the Jews elsewhere.
