You're completely ignoring the fact that the British followed through on their promises of Zionism.
Or deflecting from it.
As soon as the British took over, in the first two years, more Jewish settlers arrived in Palestine than had in the previous two decades. And those two years were instantly eclipsed by the next two.
This was a deliberate colonization effort, complete with laws that blatantly favored Jewish settlers over the Palestinian natives.
A Jewish settlers could go to the British and simply say that they wanted Palestinian land, and the British would help evict the natives. (Okay, they had to be slightly more creative than that, usually lying about land deals, but everyone knew there was no deal or real land dispute)
Is it any wonder that the Palestinians started fighting back?
