In 1929, Arabs massacred 519 Jews in Hebron. Were the “occupied territories” of 1967 to blame for their rage?

Actually the number was 67. 133 died in all of Palestine.

110 Arabs died, mostly killed by the Brits trying to suppress the rioting.

There were only 67 actually killed in 1929. But they have a nice little museum in the Hadassah house that has quite a few pictures of the “injured”; severed hands and such. The really big massacre was in Baghdad, I think 1942. 800 murdered and thrown into a mass grave.
