Arab colors were a constant and some added the jaffa orange and/ or cross and crescent.

The addition of orange to the Arab colors reflected the importance of the Jaffa orange in Palestine& #39;s coasts. Beginning in the mid-1800s, citrus groves were planted around Jaffa in Palestine& #39;s central coast, and became a key prt of local identity and economy.

The Cross & Crescent, meanwhile, was likely an inclusive Arab response to the Zionist movement& #39;s use of exclusively Jewish symbols.
Arab colors were formulated as a national symbol in the early 20th century. They& #39;re prominent in all proposed versions, linked to Palestinian insistence that their nation was part of the Arab world- and couldn& #39;t be cleaved off by British colonialism into someone else& #39;s homeland.

This flag, proposed by Elias Hana Rantissi, resembles somewhat the Japanese flag.

He did not see this as a problem - Rantissi noted the similarity, referring to Japan as "a great Eastern nation" and "the pride of the East"
