It is difficult for an impartial observer in U.S. or Europe to reach firm conclusions regarding the calamitous Arab-Jewish conflict still raging in Palestine. The report of the Shaw commission in Great Britain put the immediate blame for the outbreaks upon the Arabs but absolved the Arab leaders as a body of deliberate incitement. It met the charge that the Palestine government was weak by pointing to "the difficulties inherent in the mandate." It cited as the underlying cause of the outbreaks the fear on the part of the Arabs that wholesale Jewish immigration and land purchase might create a situation in which the Arabs would be landless paupers under Jewish political domination.
