Thought you’d find this interesting if not seen before.... I didn’t find it in search of FR.
There is no Palestinian blood.
No genetic marker for Palestinian.
No Palestinian art.
No Palestinian artifacts
No where is there to be found architectural digs, sites of so called Palestinians.
There is no Palestinian language.
Lastly, there is no Palestinian history.

Isn’t it interesting that Palestinian sounds like Philistine?
Also, IIRC, most of those few indigenous, pre-Zionist, inhabitants didn’t own where they were living, under the law (Ottoman) of that place and time. Rather it was mostly owned by absentee Ottoman landlords. From whom the Zionists BOUGHT their land. And at the time those Ottoman landlords thought they were getting MUCH more than what they thought their land was worth.
God gave that land to the Jews. Plain and simple.
Everyone seems to be pretending that the Christian Palestinians don’t exist. As usual.
What about the substantial Christian populations of Bethlehem and Galilee? Conveniently down the memory hole, right?

We used to go to the beach at Nabi Rubin. Used to be an annual bazaar. Now it is Israel’s Cape Canaveral.
Joan Peters is dead? I didn’t know.
It’s worth noting that the vast, vast majority of Jewish Israelis are of Eastern European descent and also have no “genetic” claim to Israel. Ironically, most Biblical Israelites converted to Christianity and Islam centuries ago and are essentially lost to generic history as a group.
The Palestinians never existed and Palestine has never existed as a nation.
They’re a fake people with only one intent and that is to get rid of Israel.
It all boils to the essential “racism” of the Arab political class and Muslim religious leaders, which goes as follows: Arabs with no family in Palestine, had, and have a “right” to immigrate to Palestine, but Jews did, and do not.
Notice also, that all Arabs living in Israel when it became a state, became Israeli citizens, as did/do their children; while most of the Jews in most of the Arab states were stripped of their citizenship and expelled.
Very important facts, necessary for countering the relentless misinformation fed to us about the historical demographics of the region.
If you'd like to be on or off, please FR mail me.

The Palestinians remind me of an old Andy Capp comic strip I cannot find.
Andy is on a train, and next to him is a man reading a newspaper. In the next scene Andy is looking over the man’s shoulder reading the newspaper. In the next scene Andy is sharing the newspaper with the man. In the final scene Andy has the entire newpaper, and the man is looking over his shoulder. Andy turns to him and says, “Do you mind?”
That’s how I see the Palestinians.
Ping for later
> Article is not new, but very important and topical — so-called “Palestinians” try to pretend that they have ancient long-standing right to all of the land of Israel, Gaza, and “West Bank”.... in reality, only a few per cent (author estimates under 5 per cent) of the Arab/Muslim population of “Palestine” preceded 19th and 20th century waves of immigration to the area.
Arabs owned Palestine by right of conquest from the Romans, who owned in right of conquest from the Jedeans, who owned it in right of conquest from the Canaanites. The most recent right of conquest is that of the Jewish settlers and thus have the most valid set of rights.
“Palestinians” were the creation of Yasser Arafat (an Egyptian) and the KGB. Most of the inhumanity towards them has come from the Arab nations which will not allow those in the refugee camps to become citizens or do much of anything productive.
Mark Twain’s “Innocents Aboard” makes the point that there was almost no population in what is now Israel and that it was mostly sh@thole.
