I'm saying the sectarian violence, including massacres and ethnic cleansing, on both sides, were caused by the mass Jewish migration, Zionist pretentions and ambitions, British policy in Palestine, among others.

"Buying land" is a drastic simplification. When an ethnic group moves en masse to a location inhabited mostly by another ethnic group, and claim the generic land around for their own religious and ethnic group, how can that not cause problems ? Why would the majority ethnic group in the location sit idly by while they get replaced? Especially when the colonial power in charge promises them independence, and also to give their homeland to the other ethnic group, and encourages their migration there?
