<blockquote><small>From time to time, anti-Jewish slogans written in Arabic and German, and embellished with the swastika, appear on vacant walls and boardings in different Palestine towns, enjoining a boycott of Jewish goods and enterprises… According to well-informed local quarters , the origin of these throwaways is in a central Nazi propaganda ascent for Palestine who, it is believed, works through Arab Fascists. An attempt at Fascism was started some eighteen months ago as the only hope of Arab salvation in the present state of the Arab nationalist cause, as one young leader said. The object was to introduce an ultra-nationalistic spirit among the Arab youth. But it was more closely modelled on the National-Socialist brand of Fascism than the Italian, because the German politics embodied anti-Semitism as the central motive.</small></blockquote></ref> <blockquote>

On April 21, 1936, I was informed by telephone from Tulkarm that the city was closed and a national committee would be established today. There was a big demonstration in the streets of the city. During the demonstration, a car drove by and the driver was wearing a western hat. When the protesters started attacking the car, the driver shouted "Heil Hitler", hung the Nazi flag on his car and waved goodbye to the Nazi movement. So the crowd greeted him, took his hat and replaced it with a turban. This story can teach about the Nazi influence among the crowds in the Palestinian street.</blockquote></ref>

Maj.Thomas Gregory Tulloch on Apr 29, 1936:<ref>

In March 1936, shortly before the outbreak of the events of that year, Tulloch decided to say what was in his heart and wrote a long and detailed memo to Winston Churchill, who was then serving as a member of the British Parliament, in which he described the picture of the situation as he saw and understood it. Churchill was very impressed by what was written and through his secretary asked to know to what extent Tulloch wanted the material he sent to be confidential.
Tulloch replied to him on April 29, 1936, that he did not want to keep anything a secret, except his name so that word of his memo would not reach Israel and spoil his standing among the Arabs, and that they would stop telling him things that are of great importance for understanding the situation for his approval. In addition, he feared that he would be flooded with trending stories of the Jews, while he himself strives to remain independent and draw his own conclusions independently. His answer was written already after the events of April 1936 broke out, and in the letter the killings of the Arab rioters are described in detail.
As for the 'general strike' announced by the Arab leaders, he writes that the common people suffer from it and are impoverished, while the 'leaders' covertly buy their needs from the Jews, but the lower-class Arabs do not dare to raise their heads against the 'leaders'. These require frequent meetings with the High Representative, as if it were their right. The strike and the reign of terror also drove away the tourists.
The students of the agricultural school 'Kadoorie' in Tulkarm are on strike, and according to him, this is really absurd since the school was built with the money of the Jewish donor Sir Ellis Kadoorie.
Tulloch writes difficult things about the police, in which Britons, Arabs and Jews served. Only the British police chief, Spicer, is praised by him; While the Arab policemen, according to him, do not help the Jews who are being attacked, although there has been an improvement since the events of 1929, when they stood by, saw acts of robbery and murder and did not intervene, Tulloch's heart goes out to the Jewish policemen who live together with the Arab policemen and must receive orders from their officers. Their salary is meager and they cannot live on it because they are more educated and their standard of living is higher. In his opinion, the number of British police officers should be increased, because it is a shame to employ the British army that was sent to Israel to make peace there.
There is also interest in the information that Tulloch brings about the influence of the Nazis on the Arab residents of Israel. The Nazis penetrated the ranks of the Arab scouts. Many of the young Arabs study and get educated in Germany free of charge, and when they return to Israel they spread the Nazi ideology among the Arabs. The Arab press is full of hate speech against the Jews, and the censorship is not strict with them.
The country is strategically important and could have flourished and prospered if peace had been established between the Arabs and the Jews. But Tulloch predicts that the country will indeed develop and flourish, because the Jews' desire to succeed is determined and they will succeed, despite the difficulties that the mandate government puts in their way.
And finally, we will mention the congratulatory letter that Tulloch sent to Eric Mills on March 15, 1934, when he was appointed by the High Commissioner to serve as director of the immigration department of the mandate government.
In a letter written after the Nazis came to power, Tulloch congratulates Mills and says that a great privilege fell on his part in being appointed during such an exciting historical period at the gates of immigration to Israel. He asks him to open wide the gates of the country to the Jewish immigrants fleeing for their lives from the Nazi persecution. These Jews will not burden the country's economy. On the contrary, they will bring with them wealth and knowledge, excellent education and good taste. Tulloch ends his letter by saying that if Mills acts in this way, he will receive the gratitude of the intellectual people of the people who are persecuted on his neck without injustice. Moreover, such an act of magnanimity will contribute to raising the profile and glorifying the name of the British Empire, which has suffered in this region.
It is not known how much the Jewish community at that time knew how to appreciate the Scottish Major, who, being a conservative British patriot of the old school, saw the Jewish people as a virtuous people and judged/spoke about them favorably.</small></blockquote></ref><blockquote>The Nazis penetrated the ranks of the Arab scouts.
