RE: "The violence started because it became clear that the Jews were not migrating to Palestine but trying to take it over."

I suggest that you investigate and determine how much and what land Jews had "taken over" when the violence started. Of course, you are supporting violence on the part of another group that wanted to "take it over." In 1931, there were 175K Jews in a population of over 1M and violence had been going on since 1920.

RE: "Hardly. I think the Jews were smart enough to distinguish between what makes a good purchase and what is buying a worthless piece of land in the middle of nowhere...but this is not the point."

The Jews bought what they could buy. There was a limited amount of land available. The Jewish objective was not kept secret.
