"The Jews were paying exorbitant prices to wealthy landowners for small tracts of arid land. "In 1944, Jews paid between $1,000 and $1,100 per acre in Palestine, mostly for arid or semiarid land; in the same year, rich black soil in Iowa was selling for about $110 per acre." So this is good for the arabs--getting 10X the value of the land. "In fact, many leaders of the Arab nationalist movement, including members of the Muslim Supreme Council, sold land to Jews." Again is this in and of itself bad. Land is sold by folks who own it for what the market will bear, no? "Jewish money" Whats that? Does it have a picture of Shylock or Fagan on it and is the ink red and made from the blood of arabs kids?
