'''Ahead of the Arab anti-Jewish pogrom in Jaffa, 1921'''
A noted Arab, involved in "re-establishing friendly relations," has alerted his Jewish colleague, warning him that the government had given Issa el-Issa permission to start ''Falastin'' again, which Dajani felt would lead to a return of "anti-Jewish agitation and would spoil all oir joint efforts to establish harmony between Jews and Arabs."<ref>Levine, Mark Andrew.

Ninety-five years ago, bloody anti-Jewish riots took place in Jaffa, then one of Mandatory Palestine’s most important cities and home to large Jewish and Arab populations. The Jaffa “events,” as they euphemistically became known, constituted one of the opening sallies of the Arab-Israeli conflict...
In 1921, the Arab journalist Issa al-Issa returned to Jaffa. Issa, before leaving for several years to Damascus, had edited the newspaper Falastin in Jaffa until 1914. Under his direction, the paper published such sharp incitement against the Jews that even the Ottoman authorities banned the publication. Upon his return, the British gave him permission to renew the publication of his paper.
Abdullah Dajani, one of Jaffa’s Arab leaders, was terrified of the danger inherent in granting official permission to distribute Issa's words of hatred. With his friend, the Jewish agronomist Shmuel Tolkowski, Dajani tried to get the approval rescinded, but to no avail. Jaffa’s residents interpreted this move as governmental support for the paper’s anti-Semitism.</small><blockquote>Ninety-five years ago, bloody anti-Jewish riots took place in Jaffa, then one of Mandatory Palestine’s most important cities and home to large Jewish and Arab populations.

'''Pushing "the Protocols"'''
In December 1924, Arab papers, ''Falastin'' and ''Rakib Sion'', cautioned their Arab readers against joining Masonic lodges, because they are dominated by Jews. As evidence they refer to the infamous falsification, "Protocols of the Elders of Zion."<ref>[https://www.jta.org/archive/refer-to-protocols-in-warning-against-masonic-lodges Refer to "protocols" in Warning Against Masonic Lodges], ''JTA'', December 23, 1924.
