There was nothing to explain. Every one understood what was happening.
The local Arabs saw an influx of foreign looking people with a different
outlook and a different culture streaming into their lands. No secrets
here. The Turkish and Arab elites were making money hand over fist but
the Falaheen ( peasants ) could not compete with the literate and hard
working newcomers. The same thing happened in the larger towns. The locals
really didn't like the competition.
Every one wanted to stop the influx of immigrants. For different reasons.

Well, that's pretty good. But you did leave out one or two key points. Firstly,
the house does not belong to you. The house belongs to an absentee landlord in
Turkey. After he lost the house in a poker game with the town officials, THEY
decided to split the house in two. It was a big house. THEN Prudy, your
story starts. After feeling guilty about the fires they helped start and not
put out, THEN they declared that half of the half of the house will be made
available to the burned out family.
So they moved into their 1/4 of the house. But even that was unacceptable to
our residents so they hired five hit men to come and kill off the unwanted
newcomers. "OK" said the hit men. " But you will need to leave for a little
while because we're going to shoot up the building and kill everyone inside." "
After
that you can come back and take possession of your whole half of the house."
Once the shooting commenced it became obvious that things were not going as
planned. The local renters who stayed behind got real nervous. So the
newcomers helped their house mates make up their minds about the necessity to
relocate because the neighborhood had gone violent.
Unfortunately, the Hitmen were from the Gang That Couldn't Shoot Straight, and
the newcomers kicked their sorry ass and took possession of the entire half of
the house and allowed some of the original squatters to remain because they
were really nice guys.
Then years later the Hitmen bought new guns from their uncles Nikita and Sam,
and were ready to shoot up the old house again. But the new owners had a fine
neighborhood gang who were real tough and could take on all the other gangs
and Hitmen from the other neighborhoods. So they did.
Now the Newcomers own the whole half of the house but the old tenants don't
like their new landlord. Too bossy they say. But the new landlord thinks that
his old tenants are trying to burn the house down. This makes the new landlord
feel real bad. Now he thinks that maybe the old tenants would be much happier
moving in to the other half of the big house with the rest of their relatives
and everyone will live happily ever after.
And that's the end of that part of the story.
