''In 1929, Husseini distributed pamphlets saying: “O Arabs, do not forget that the Jew is your worst enemy and has been the enemy of your forefathers.” He also announced that the Jews had “violated the honour of Islam.” This led to a pogrom in Jerusalem and a massacre in Hebron, where 60 Jews were killed and the town ethnically cleansed. The British attributed the attacks to “racial animosity on the part of the Arabs.”''</ref>

<blockquote>Arab journals Falastin and Al Difa'a publish every week articles with a racial tendency and frequently reproduce large portraits of various leaders of the [[Third Reich]].

In April 1936, the ''Falastin'' agitated openly for an alliance between the Arab nationalist movement and British Union of Fascists (BUF) by Oswald Mosley.<ref>[https://www.nli.org.il/en/newspapers/ajnm/1936/05/01/01/article/74 The Australian Jewish News (Melbourne), 1 May 1936].<blockquote><small>
Arab Press On Legislative Council Debates
Jerusalem. April 8th.
The paper goes on to express its regrets that the Arabs have not taken the slightest trouble to get in touch with Sir Oswald Mosley, who, as leader of the British Fascists attacks the Jews and their influence on British politics. The newspaper concludes by appealing to Arabs to start a campaign for joining hands with the British Fascists and get their support.</small></blockquote></ref><ref>Jewish Frontier.

Another Arab paper "Falastin" agitated openly for an alliance between the nationalist movement and Sir Oswald Mosley.
The government seemed incapable of understanding that though it might be possible to treat fascist agitation humorously in London, amusement was out of place in Jaffa. The entire German population of Palestine numbers barely three thousand. Assuming that every one of them is a Nazi, they are still unable to publish a daily newspaper without assistance. The fact that a Nazi paper began to appear in Jerusalem, was in itself evidence enough that well-financed Hitler agents were in the country striving to establish contact with the Arab population. The government saw fit to ignore this.</small></blockquote></ref>
