In the 1920s and 1930s, when Arabs were attacking Jewish owned farms in British-controlled Palestine, it wasn’t unusual for the Arabs, after killing all the farm’s inhabitants, to destroy the fruit orchards as well.

I don't know about killing all the inhabitants, but they did destroy fruit trees. Settlers and the IDF destroy their olive trees. Is that also the same thing?

Can you supply a verifiable reference source for this? Mine came from “O, Jerusalem”, a book written back in the 1960s.
