In my experience in life, it's often wiser to make things simple. The Turks were at fault: They are the ones who ruled over the unjust landownership system. As I point in my article, and as you suggest, Jews could have subdivided the land they bought and given some of it to the local Arab tenant farmers; however, it is almost certain that the best portions of the land were the ones the Arab tenant farmers were on. In pretty much any case, the Jewish buyers would always have told the Arab tenant farmers to vacate the prime portions of land that the Jews had bought; the Jews giving the Arabs some of the less desirable portions of land would not have mollified the Arabs much. Much simpler for the Jews to just instruct the Arab tenant farmers to completely leave the entire property, as was the Jews' right to do so, and clearly, simply, and unambiguously pointed blame on the party that actually created the unjust situation: the Turks.
