TRUE. In order to conserve the rights of the Arab peasants and tenant farmers, King Faisal reassured the immigration of the Jewish into Palestine. Both Faisal and Weizmann (Zionist leader) agreed that the borderlines between an Arab state and Palestine should be resolved by a Commission after the Paris Peace Conference.
