Episode ImageViolence broke out between Arabs and Jews in 1920. The Arab mobs were incited by Haj Amin Husseini, who would continue to incite violence for many years. An armed band of Jews, led by Vladimir Jabotinsky, tried to stop the violence but were stopped by British troops. This was only the beginning of violence in Palestine.
