I forgot to give credit for the above extended quotes.

The page from which I drew the above referenced quotes was produced by Joseph E. Katz, Middle Eastern Political and Religious History Analyst, Brooklyn, New York. Essay is from the 15 February issue of "Time to Speak." [According to Mr. Katz, some of the material in the above referenced article is drawn from the book From Time Immemorial by Joan Peters.].

And thank you very much! I suppose I was confusing the 'Palestinia' usage with the scriptural stories of the times of the birth of Christ. I really do appreciate correction; I'll be visiting the site you offered.
