Made sense as in April 1936, six prominent Arab leaders overcame their own rivalries and joined forces to attack Jews and the British in Palestine. The Arab High Command, as the group was known, was led by the Mufti, Haj Amin al-Husseini, and represented Arab interests in Palestine until 1948. These actions were terrorist attacks against the Jews and the British. This first stage of the “Arab Revolt” that lasted until November 1936. So put things in their proper perspective!
