The research explored the justifications for the Palestinians’ rejection for
the Jewish immigration to Palestine (in the period from 1930 to 1936) through
an analysis for the Palestinian political discourse. This period witnessed a flow
of the Jewish immigrants from different countries, posing several challenges
to the Palestinian society (political, economic, social, cultural, ethical and
security related) , This required a new Palestinian political discourse to fit
the size of such risk. The study showed that the grounds for the Palestinian
refusal to Jewish Immigration were (political, national, historical, religious,
ethical, cultural, security related, and economic) . It also showed that these
justifications were not of the same importance. The rationale of economy
and security were the most powerful because of the Immigrants’ sheer risk
on the Palestinian economy and security and, the interests of the bourgeois
and feudal classes who have drafted a new political discourse against
immigration. It was noted in the study that there is a Palestinian consensus
on rejecting all forms of immigration despite all political contradictions in
the Palestinian arena. This rejection, nevertheless, was not accompanied by a
clear and practical program to deal with the Jewish immigration as the most
dangerous challenge from the viewpoint of the Palestinians.
