Some examples of that famous co-existence in Palestine

The Kotel in 1910

From the American Jewish Yearbook 

September 23, 1910:  Arabs assault about sixty worshippers at religious service on Rosh Hashanah at Wailing Wall.

February 2, 1911: Serious conflict between Jewish colonists in Palestine and the Arabs reported. Three colonists said to have been killed and seven wounded.

June 7, 1911: Anti-Jewish newspaper Carmel resumes publication at Haifa.

July 16, 1911: Colony Merchaviah (Phule) attacked by Arab Christians. Government takes measures to restore order

There are lots of anti-Jewish incidents in other Arab countries like Syria and Yemen mentioned as well. But I hadn't heard about the 1910 attacks before.

Incidentally, speaking of the Kotel, there was also these little tidbits:

February 2 1911:  Chief Rabbi protests to Minister of Justice and Public Worship against removal of seats before Wailing Wall, Jerusalem. Protest of Jerusalem Chief Rabbi Franco ignored by Governor.

March 15, 1911: 15. Decree of Ministry of the Interior to Governor of Jerusalem permits Jews to place benches and light candles in front of Wailing Wall.

But that allowance was soon overturned - in November 1911, under pressure from local Muslims, the Turkish government issued an edict banning benches at the Wall.
