moderate opposition, willing to accept the partition plane, and
compromise. The political leadership was thus divided into two factions
which formed political parties led by the same families. This chapter also
discussed how the failure of the political leadership to articulate a
coherent policy, develop a strategy, or take practical steps against the
Zionist colonisation led to the emergence of alternative, more radical
movements.
The Third chapter discusses the movement of Izz al-Din al-Qassam,
which adopted a more radical policy of armed struggle. The ideology of
this movement was a combination of religious and nationalist thought. It
was the first grass-roots movement, comprising mainly peasants and
workers, some of whom would play a very important part in leading the
revolt which began less than a year after the death of al-Qassam in
November 1935 in a clash with the British forces.
Chapter Four is a chronological account of the main events of the
revolt, from its beginning in the six months strike, to its end at the
outbreak of the Second World War in 1939. It discusses the background
to the revolt, the formation of the rebel groups, their main battles and
the effect of al-Qawuqji on the development of the military skills of the
rebels groups. It also discusses the Royal Commission’s Report and the
Partition plan suggested by it, which led to the continuation and
intensification of the revolt, which reached its peak in the summer of
1938. At which point the rebels were practically in control of most of the
country.
Chapter Five deals in detail with the military organisation of the
revolt, and tries to answer questions as to the form and level of the
organisation of the rebel groups, and the role of the Faz’a (auxiliary
forces); how the rebels conducted their guerrilla warfare and how they
developed their tactics and fighting skills. It also discusses the formation
of the Bureau of The Arab Revolt, which was to take command of the
operational and administrative leadership of the rebel groups.
