The Peel Commission of 1937 offered to grant autonomy or independence to the inhabitants

the Arabs rejected giving any territory to the New Yishuv

The New Yishuv rejected what they were being offered

The Yishuv hayashan and some others as well were more concerned with both sides and preferred the status quo of the Mandate (even if they complained about their limitations re: access to the kosel)
