I completely understand why Arabs would be 100% okay with this
This happened after ww1 . This is part of the reason Hitler was able to rile up the German popolulous against the jews was the action the British government did.
The British government gave the jews the previously Palestine controlled area and Hitler went " See , it's the Jews fault. They will take your homes and land!" I'd you actaully are any sort of a history buff this British promise is the base of thebjewsbare evil and will takebover your stuff stagedy. This is where he fed his base his rhetoric. The British with drawing out Isreal really did become the architect of their own destruction. Actions like this fuelled modern day anti Semitic beliefs.

This is actually fairly correct narrative of Arabs view on the matter. They hate the very fact that Jews have a state in Palestine, because immediately before there was such state, it was Arab's lands, even if controlled by Britain. Similarly, Putin hates the very fact that there's Ukraine, because before there was Ukraine, its lands were Russian.
