Despite attempts by ''Falastin'' to "deny" that Fawzi al-Qawuqji [Kaukji] is campaigning (financially) to drive the British and the Jews into the sea,<ref>[https://www.nli.org.il/en/newspapers/pls/1936/12/30/01/article/44 Arabs Split on New Outbreak on Crime], The Palestine Post, 30 December 1936.
<blockquote>
Arabs Split on New Outbreak of Crime.
Dissatisfaction with the state of Arab political affairs in Jerusalem is fast growing and a correspondent in "A 'Difaa" has pointed out that there are two National Committees in existence. One is controlled by the Husseini faction and has 22 members; the other, known as the National Society, consists of leaders of the Nashashibi party.
The latter contend that the original National Committee was really an offshoot of the Mufti of Jerusalem's organization.
The Police at Jaffa are reported to have arrested a man found with 30 leafets calling for attacks on Christian Arabs and signed by "Moslem Youth."
No More Riots
Alleged exaggeration by the English and Hebrew press in Palestine of the possibility of further disturbances was criticised in yesterday's Falastin, which declared that the present wave of crime could not be regarded as political.
The paper denied that Fawzi el Kaukji had any intention of taking further measures in regard to Palestine or that the Arabs were raising £500,000 to drive the Jews into the sea.
Declaring that the recent revolt in Palestine served as the dividing line between an epoch of compromise and an epoch of militant national activity.
"A 'Difaa" on the other hand pointed out that the spirit of rebellion was still rife in the country.
The Arabs had been led into their present position, the paper said, after trying vainly for 20 years to reach a compromise with the British Governmentand this had, grown insupportable. Every Arab old and young rich and poor must now volunteer for the front-line, for they must know that there is no peace for them, so long as they are under a regime from which Syria, Iraq, and Trans-Jordan have already freed themselves.</small></blockquote</ref> it was reported that Kaukji in fact, is active (speeches and personal negotiations) in a Jihad calling to drive the Brits "into the sea."<ref>The Calgary Daily Herald, Jan 23, 1937 (p. 23).

Syrian Leader Blasts Jews With French 75s
By Robert Conway
Jerusalem, April 5. -- Fawzi Bey El Kaukji, field commander of Syrian troops in Palestine, today blasted the Jewish colony of Mishmar Haemek with French 75s.
Apparently it had abandoned the idea of storming the defenders who have withstood five ways of Arab attacks in 24 hours...
Fawzi Bey's attacking force at Mishmar Haemek is estimated at from 1,500 to 2,000 crack troops from his command of 6,000 to 7,000 Syrians, Iraqi and Lebanese troops, which the British admit have illegally taken possession of Samaria in northern Palestine...
Jewish Haganah forces early this morning attacked Arab military headquarters near Tel Aviv killing 25...
The attack on Mishmar Haemek began yesterday at 5. P.M. yesterday when Fawzi Bey personally led a large force on his initial big action to "drive the Jews into the sea."
The assault achieved initial surprise on the colony which normally has about 700 inhabitants, mostly young men and women students...</small></blockquote></ref>
