Read http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yishuv_haYashan (if you consider Old Yishuv "local") and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First_Aliyah Generally, no love had been lost between fanatically religious communities of pre-Zionist Palestine and mostly secular-leaning (to say nothing about socialists of 2nd Aliyah) Zionists. However, there wasn't a lot of hostility also.

Define POD. By 1945 Mizrahi Jews IOTL had been alienated by their gentile neighbours in Muslim countries.
