No, they're just doing science.
I have the book. Too bad he's dead wrong about the dates, and about the Bronze Age "collapse".
Do you have a link to that?
Yep. Since the Philistines were Israel’s enemy he so named it; but that didn’t create a state of Palestine. That area was ruled first by Israel, then the Romans, then the Ottomans then the Brits who called it the Mandate, then the UN vote to reestablish the area as Israel, then came the Arab invasion, then Israel won and on several other occasions.
PS: Titus didn’t actually wipe out Israel, there were always Jews in the region with their own towns. The Romans conquered it then ruled it until the Ottomans kicked them out.
That’s the reason Rome named it Palestine after Israel’s hated enemy.
A link to?....
the correct years as compared to what is in Eric Clines book. - of course you have links ;.)
I’ll work on it! Meanwhile, here’s a new one, followed by two older ones:

Thanks, that will keep me occupied for a month!
I noticed the Eric has been here http://www.freerepublic.com/tag/by:ehcline/index?tab=comments;brevity=full;options=no-change
I remember it, it was nice of him to stop by. His dating remains wrong. You'll find plenty of posts and links of mine in those keyword topics. :^)
Even a Patrician blue blooded family like the Bush clan has native Americans intertwined in their New England roots.
My wife is a distant cousin of baseball star Rogers Hornsby descended from a common half-sister of Pocohantas . . . and more than a century later, we have common Cherokee ancestry which married into settler line on the Georgia/Carolina/Tennessee frontiers. There are remote areas still with sizeable Cherokee populations who escaped the forced removal in 1838 either because (a)they were sufficiently intermarried with settlers or (b)in locations too remote and/or numbers too few to bother with rounding up.
What you describe is correct, it’s a matter of degree. Certainly English immigrants intermarried with natives, but every English settlement included women, even early Jamestown. I am a descendant of a family who were on the 2d Supply. Even the Adventurers during the Virginia Company era were interested in establishing wealthly estates that would include English family members.
Spanish and French settlements were almost exclusively male, either military or Adventurers seeking precious metals or jewels. Not very many farmers except among the clergy who were, officially, celebate.
Most of the first families of Virginia were descended from Pocahontas. Her line was a very fine thread as most of her line was continued by a single person until one finally had several children.

Does this Cherokee lineage show up in your wife’s DNA?
We supposedly via written documentation have lineage with your wife’s ancestor and her father, uncles and aunts. Yet zero DNA showing any Indian blood in our DNA.
“Exactly. Minoan refugees from the Thera volcano.”
The fact that Dagon is a male diety (and the Minoans were supposedly goddess worshipers) made me doubt this at first, but Dagon is often represented as a fish-man, and fish play a very prominent part in Minoan art. Plus, the Minoans were practitioners of ritual child sacrifice AND cannibalism: there’s lots of evidence from mass graves of children that the kids were butchered just like a food animal. So it would make sense that the local tribes that God so hated in the Old Testament descended from these awful people.
Growing up, I LOVED Greek history, and Minoan history (and it’s mysteries) were a fascination of mine. It was such a disappointment to find out that the people that constructed such beautiful (even magical ) places like the Palace of Knossos were sacrificing and eating their own children in honor of dark deities.
