Oh this is funny.
(COMMENT)What would Prince Faisal, a Bedouin, have to do with Palestine. There were less Bedouins in Palestine than Jews at the time.
You are incorrigible. Herzl's plans are in writing in his autobiography.
The senior Arab Leader for the entire region, especially for the Arab Irregulars on the Allied side, was Hussein bin Ali, Sharif of Mecca, King of the Hejaz. Prince Faisal was the King's son and dispatched to negotiate on the Kings behalf. When Prince Faisal entered Damascus, he was the most senior Arab Leader.
Most Respectfully,

Faisal was not the senior Arab leader for the whole region. He certainly could not have been the leader of Palestinians who were not Bedouins and at the time 20% Christian. The Palestinians had their own leaders, Christian and Muslim.
