I rest my case - your own link doesn't support your proposition that of .24 Palestinians for every 1 Jew in the area. It does support about .24 Palestinians per Jew in Israel proper - excluding the west bank - that's because about 75% of Israel is Jewish, 25% is Palestinian Arab (so that about .24 to 1). However, that is NOT the same land area as your numbers for 1939 or 1946 in "Palestine" because Palestine includes the West Bank and Gaza (today, west bank and Gaza have about 8.5 to 9 million Palestinian Muslims and about and Jordan (another 8 or 9 million Muslims) -- compared to more or less, 0 Jews.
The fact that there were militant Jewish groups doesn't change that. Your assertion was that the Palestinians are historically being driven out of Palestine and your population numbers showed a descending Palestinian Muslim to Palestinian Jew ratio. That's just not true.
It's the Arabs and the Grand Mufti in the 1930s who sided with Adolph Hitler in Nazi Germany. The Muslim revolts of the 1930s led by the alQassam faction and were financially supported by fascist Italy. They demanded an end to Jewish immigration. They hated Jews. Can't be Jewish there. The "holy land" is rightfully Muslim. The Grand Mufti promised "the revenge of God Almighty" if the Brits didn't stop "the Jews" from immigrating.
The Grand Mufti entered a declaration with Germany and Italy which said, in part - "Germany and Italy recognize the right of the Arab countries to solve the question of the Jewish elements, which exist in Palestine and in the other Arab countries, as required by the national and ethnic (völkisch) interests of the Arabs, and as the Jewish question was solved in Germany and Italy."
Grand Mufti in 1943 - knowing that the holocaust was occurring, because he said himself that Heinrich Himmler told him the Germans had already wiped out 3 million Jews.... knowing that, The Grand Mufti wrote - "It is the duty of Muhammadans [Muslims] in general and Arabs in particular to ... drive all Jews from Arab and Muhammadan countries... . Germany is also struggling against the common foe who oppressed Arabs and Muhammadans in their different countries. It has very clearly recognized the Jews for what they are and resolved to find a definitive solution [endgültige Lösung] for the Jewish danger that will eliminate the scourge that Jews represent in the world."
“When I was in college, I took a terrorism class. ... The thing that was interesting in the class was every time the professor said ‘Al Qaeda’ his shoulders went up, But you know, it is that you don’t say ‘America’ with an intensity, you don’t say ‘England’ with the intensity. You don’t say ‘the army’ with the intensity,” she continued. “... But you say these names [Al Qaeda] because you want that word to carry weight. You want it to be something.” - Ilhan Omar
