OK, According to the map in my bible the land that is listed as Palistine is now called Jordan! But then you did not want to go that far back. Quite frankley I think the PLO should leave and go back to Jordan or where ever hole they crawed out of.

Uh, if you look at the preamble to bugbear's posting number 19 that you refer to, I think you will quickly figure out that he does not support the info mouthed by Bin Layin' but is simply stating what the typical Pali response would be.

Quite frankly I don't ascribe to Aslamic Law, but it does amaze me how much they have in common with Democraps. For me Clintons, Dashles, Ashola Bin Lying, Pot Pol, Lenin and Hitler are all from the the same pot of egotistic, Socialist Scum.

Arab Islamics lie thorugh their teeth regularly about their "palestinian" Arab fodder. Such is consistent with the Islamic historical view - revisionist to the core.

When I clicked on this link I was expecting some sort of National Geographic type of pictorial with information. I've never seen or met a Palestinian. My thoughts though on who they are is that they are/were an Arabic people who live in the area that is Israel and are NOT peaceful.

Hey, that Indian tribe in CN, aren't they the ones who are black?

I'm close to agreeing with you, they're Arabs, though not a distinct group of Arabs till well post 67, and then only due to "political recognition".

Certainly not peaceful, which is really the relevant point.

"It's a great big lie that the Israelis displaced anyone – one of a series of lies and myths that have the world on the verge of committing yet another great injustice to the Jews. "

It is a lie endorsed by the US State Dept which much too often sides and marches with terrorists.

My Bible endorses it too. Joshua wiped out somebody in Jericho. Or are you going back to some earlier date?

Do they claim to be a distinct group? I figured they were the same as the other Arabs in that part of the world. I had known that before Israel became a country, that it was sparsely populated and mostly desert. I suspect many of the Palestinians/Arabs came in afterwards looking for jobs. The same kind of thing happened with S. Africa, though there was no earlier history there as there was in Israel.

Maybe an Egyptian can qualify as a Palestinian if he decides he wants to be one? Seems to work that way. If you are an Arab and you move to Israel, *poof* you can be a Palestinian too! I think that is how it works. (sarcasm off)

i think that you are an un educated man, because obviously you claim that there was never a country called Palestine. just answer a question the major religion is Muslim and the language spoken is Arabic. who gives you the right to say Jerusalem belongs to the Jew's obviously you must be one. when Jew's needed a place to live we Palestinians welcomed them in and gave them a country they can freely unit and live in. but of coarse those no good for nothing Jew's went against us and started to take over. all in all one day that land will come back to the rightful owners the Palestinian. just to let you know you are very ignorant and should brush up on your history on whats been going on for the past decades in the middle east.

"Who are the Palestinians"

A group of Arabs - mostly Jordanian, but also Egyptian Syrian etc, who, for political reasons, chose to call themselves "falistainians" (there is no "p" sound in Arabic) since 1967.
