Well, yeah. That's how the Palestinians felt.
"As immigration accelerated in the 1930s following the rise of Nazism, Palestinians' fears of being swamped heightened and recurrent violence between the two communities increased. Whatever Great Britain did to placate one side inevitably alienated the other."
"The Jewish population had swollen to a third of Palestine's total, but UNSCOP allotted the Jews 55% of the land. Given the interwoven patterns of settlement, Arabs constituted almost half the population of the proposed Jewish state. The Jews accepted partition, but the Arabs did not, in part because of the proposal's inequities, but more fundamentally from the conviction that the United Nations had no right to deprive them of their land against their will."

"arguing with a racist Jew-hater"
You said, "... without provocation." I responsed with factual history.
I was wondering how long it would take you to start name calling. Not "if" you would -- but "when" you would. You have no argument, I understand. What you do have is hatred and insults.
Too bad. It was a pretty good debate while it lasted.
But, I must say shalom. I don't debate with children. You need to get a grip and grow up.
1) I've sussed you out.
2) You were the first with the snide names (#49)
3) I agree we're done.
One final point - a lot of that "55%" was in the Negev Desert!
One other thing I can't let stand:
"Palestinians' fears of being swamped heightened and recurrent violence between the two communities increased."
Let's be clear, the violence, whether the 1929 Jerusalem "riot" and Hebron Massacre and judenrein, the pogroms of the mid-30's or the fighting just before independence, ALL the violence was repeatedly started by the Arabs without any rational justification and the Jews defended.
