MORE than a thousand words ...

The concept/reality of not knowing history repeats history is severely brought to the forefront.

It seems the argument of Palestine should be it's own (Arab/Islam) state is preposterous when it is already Jewish.

OH YEAH ?

Check THIS out !!!

ART. 28. In the event of the termination of the mandate hereby conferred upon the Mandatory, the Council of the League of Nations shall make such arrangements as may be deemed necessary for safeguarding in perpetuity, under guarantee of the League, the rights secured by Articles 13 and 14, and shall use its influence for securing, under the guarantee of the League, that the Government of Palestine will fully honour the financial obligations legitimately incurred by the Administration of Palestine during the period of the mandate, including the rights of public servants to pensions or gratuities.

ART. 13.

All responsibility in connection with the Holy Places and religious buildings or sites in Palestine, including that of preserving existing rights and of securing free access to the Holy Places, religious buildings and sites and the free exercise of worship, while ensuring the requirements of public order and decorum, is assumed by the Mandatory, who shall be responsible solely to the League of Nations in all matters connected herewith, provided that nothing in this article shall prevent the Mandatory from entering into such arrangements as he may deem reasonable with the Administration for the purpose of carrying the provisions of this article into effect; and provided also that nothing in this mandate shall be construed as conferring upon the Mandatory authority to interfere with the fabric or the management of purely Moslem sacred shrines, the immunities of which are guaranteed.

ART. 14.

A special commission shall be appointed by the Mandatory to study, define and determine the rights and claims in connection with the Holy Places and the rights and claims relating to the different religious communities in Palestine.

I wonder if this will get out into the Press. So, for the last 60 years the
MSM/Haters have been lying to the public.

I cannot imagine how they will explain it away.

“Palestine” in the Bible by Paul Sumner The names "Palestine" and "Palestina" occur four times in the Old Testament portion of the King James Bible (1611), the most influential English translation in history. What have ye to do with me, O Tyre, and Sidon, and all the coasts of Palestine? (Joel 3:4a = 4:4a Heb) The people shall hear, and be afraid; sorrow shall take hold of the inhabitants of Palestina. (Exod 15:14)

Rejoice not thou, whole Palestina ... (Isa 14:29a)

Howl, O gate; cry, O city, thou whole Palestina, art dissolved. (Isa 14:31a)

A few English versions since the KJV occasionally use "Palestine." But most use the term "Philistia." For example at: Exod 15:14; Isa 14:29, 31; Joel 3:4; Ps 60:8; 83:7; 87:4; 108:9 (NASB-95). [Note 1]

Whence “Palestine” The oldest known reference to "Palestine" is in the work of Greek historian Herodotus (ca. 484–425). He says Palaistine is "part of Syria" along the Mediterranean coast. [Note 2]

http://www.hebrew-streams.org/works/hebrew/palestine.html

ºººººººººººººººº

In the fifth century BC, the region of eastern coast of the Mediterranean started being called as “the Philistine Syria”, a term coined by the Greek historian, Herodotus and used in its Greek language form. In AD 135, the Emperor Hadrian blotted out the name “Provincia Judea” and renamed it “Provincia Syria Palaestina”. This was the Latin version of the Greek name and soon became a name to be used as an administrative unit. This name was shortened to Palaestina and the name “Palestine” was derived from it as a modern and anglicized version.

This is one to print out and tack to the wall. I am sitting here stunned.
I “THOUGHT” I was familiar with history. Have to start over.

A lot of blood was spilled to gain independence from the British

And a lot of blood was spilled to destroy the Ottoman Empire.

The battle of Armageddon was one of the most decisive battles in history: breaking the Ottoman Empire that had lasted for more than 400 years.

One of the fruits of this victory was that the Jewish people didn't have to win their independence from the masterminds of the Armenian Genocide.

they know not history prior to “founding” of MTV....for the most part.

Philistine...makes a great search term...as relates to biblical HISTORY

the post modernists dont much CARE for the results but as they are backed up by EXTRA BIBLICAL History...theres little they can do to try to smear the authenticity of such material.

as I remember...... Goliath was a Philistine

Yup. Problem is history will be denied or altered to fit the current scheme.

As the lefty radical once said,

"The Issue is never the issue. The issue is always Revolution. "

Tie people in knots, then bathe them in blood if you have to.
