The reporter is Albert Londres, who wrote for "Le Petit Parisien". He was an investigative journalist who covered momentous events in East Europe, India, the Soviet Union, Japan, French Guinea, North Africa, and more.
In 1929, as European antisemitism was gaining uproarious momentum, he travelled to Mandatory Palestine where he met the Jewish communities. He declared his support for the creation of a Jewish state, but was concerned for possibility to coexist with the hostile Arab majority.
" He then visited Palestine twice, during 1929 and 1930, following the Arab riots there, producing a remarkable series for his newspaper, which ran them on page one. His combined series of 27 articles on the Jewish people was titled
"The Drama of the Jewish Race: From the Ghettos of Europe to the Promised Land." Displaying rare insight, as well as unique attention to authenticity in the portrayal of persons, places and events, Londres depicted the implacable Arab hostility toward the Jewish presence
in Palestine, recorded threats by Arab leaders to slaughter the entire 150,000-strong Jewish community there, and predicted that the "new Jews," as he described them, would defend themselves vigorously should they be attacked. These new Jews, he explained in detail,
came from many lands: Britain, Holland, Czechoslovakia, Belgium, Germany, America, Russia, Canada, Chile and others, although, Londres lamented, he had not yet met one from France. They were statesmen, jurists, professors, agronomists, architects, artists, writers, musicians
and actors, and if their lives in Palestine were difficult, was this not infinitely preferable, he asked rhetorically, to the "yoke of the Europeans"? [-] Zionism, he said, was a kind of instinctive passion which affected some, though not all, Jews.
The fulfillment of such desire, he commented, resulted in happiness, and those idealists who remained in Palestine were, in his view, pure. His depictions of people and places were replete with accurate Hebrew terminology...
Displaying an uncanny understanding of the Jewish condition, he pointed out that anywhere else in the world, when a Jew is guilty of a misdeed, he is no longer a Frenchmen, a German, a Belgian or an Englishman — he is a Jew.
But when a Jew discovers something important or contributes something beneficial to mankind, he is no longer a Jew, but a Frenchman, German, etc. In Palestine, however, the Jews acquired the right to be villains or geniuses without having to stop being Jews as a result.
In 1931, approximately a year after his travels in Palestine, Londres went to China to cover the Sino-Japanese War for another newspaper, Le Journal. On his return voyage to France in 1932, he was lost at sea on a ship that caught fire and sank."
Albert Londres dans son livre 'Le Juif errant' décrit ainsi les meurtres de Juifs ce jour là :
 Ils coupèrent des mains, ils coupèrent des doigts, ils maintinrent des têtes au-dessus d'un réchaud, ils pratiquèrent l'énucléation des yeux.
On scalpa un rabbin tandis qu’il recommandait à Dieu ses juifs. On emporta la cervelle. Sur les genoux de Mme Sokolov, on assit tour à tour six étudiants de la Yeshivah [école religieuse juive] et, elle vivante, on les égorgea. On mutila les hommes.

On mutila les hommes. On outragea en même temps filles et mères de treize à soixante-cinq ans !
Le lendemain, dès le matin, des Arabes marquent leur inquiétude sur le sort des Juifs. Tous les Arabes ne font pas partie des fanatiques.
La virginité d’esprit n’est heureusement pas générale en terre d’Islam. Sauvez-vous ! disent-ils aux Juifs.
Quelques-uns offrent aux futures victimes l’hospitalité de leur toit. L’un d’eux, même, ami d’un rabbin...vient se planter devant la maison de son protégé.

"In Palestine, he discovers the new metamorphosed Jew, and his succinct, harrowing descriptions of the Arab massacres of the Jews of Hebron and Safed expose an age-old animosity that is still very much alive today.
Presciently, Londres investigation provides startling insight into how the unthinkable -- the Holocaust -- could happen, sweeping across Europe barely a decade after the publication of his book. His evocative [report] transports readers back to a pivotal moment in history
and offers an invaluable perspective on ... on the nascent days of the State of Israel, and on the ongoing strife that has engulfed the region ever since. The Wandering Jew Has Arrived is as relevant today as when first penned." https://www.librarything.fr/work/1026923 
"After the 1929 riots, the non-Jewish French writer Albert Londres asked the mayor why the Arabs had murdered the pious old Jews in Hebron and Safed, with whom they had no quarrel. The mayor answered,
“In a way you behave like in a war. You don’t kill what you want. You kill what you find. Next time, they will all be killed, young and old.” Later on, Londres spoke to the mayor again and tested him by saying ironically,
“You cannot kill all the Jews. There are 150,000 of them.” Nashashibi answered “in a soft voice, ‘Oh no, it’ll take two days.’”
... Mufti of Jerusalem, Haj Amin al Husseini, during the Second World War, developed plans for a Palestinian Auschwitz-like crematorium to kill Jews near Nablus."

"A commission of enquiry led by Sir Walter Shaw took public evidence for several weeks. The main conclusions of the commission were ... that the Government reconsider its policies as to Jewish immigration and land sales to Jews. " wiki
As always, then as now, Palestinians were greatly rewarded for their terrorist violence. The more horrific their atrocities, the greater the rewards, the more solid the support for them, the more vicious the anti-Zionist propaganda.
