Sakakini vehemently opposed allowing Holocaust survivors into Palestine , arguing that a human problem needed to be solved by all humanity . While saddened by events such as the Struma disaster , he felt that the passengers were in fact invaders . An independent Palestinian Arab government should have used force to prevent them from landing , and he felt that while elderly Jews could come to live out their last years as had happened in the past , a thriving Jewish community under British protection should be forbidden . Khalil Sakakini believed that the Holocaust was being exploited parasitically by Jews demanding a homeland in Palestine , who he said would throw the Arabs out as soon as they got their homeland . Due to the Jewish influence in the United States , he believed that their right to vote in that country should be revoked
