Background
Since 1920, Palestine is under British administration but within the country zionist Jews fight nationalist palestinian Arabs and both fight the occupying British troops. At that time, the population of Palestine consisted of approximately 589,200 Muslims, 83,800 Jews, 71,500 Christians and 7,600 others (1922 census ). This fight culminated by the Arab revolt in Palestine from 1936 to 1939.
