5. Romans re-named Israel Palestine. Arabs have no land claims
Daisy ,   USA   (10.02.05)
It has nothing to with the Arabs! Jews were the frist to be called "Palestinians." The "Palestinian" people and the country of Palestine are a myth! http://www.sullivan-county.com/id3/palestine.htm
6. "Palestinians" - my leg!
Ariel ,   Jerusalem, Judaea   (10.02.05)
Tell me one word of "palestinian" language, read me one prayer of "palestinian" religion, show me one piece of "palestinian" culture (homicide bomber, perhaps?) - in short, anything that differs you from other Arabs. You guys know, you're a fake! Your chief murderer, Arafat (now hopefully testing different frying-pans in Hell ) was born in Cairo. It was he that invented this new "nation" (when he wasn't busy chasing pretty boys).The whole notion of "palestinians" was non-existent before 1967. There is no other group in our region, that the Arabs despise more, than you, folks - because you're a fake. Now you've got a state worthy of yours - the garbage dumps of Gaza. A fictious "state" for a fictive "nation".
7. What Palestine, #3?
AK   (10.02.05)
There is NO Palestine. Palestine was a Roman and than European invention. The so called "Palestinians" are also and invention. They are plain ARABS. Move the $%^&*&^ back to Jordan and Egypt.
8. israel is a myth
sam ,   pal   (10.02.05)
The Philistines were in Palestine before the grand father Abraham.You know from Tora that when he wanted to bury his wife he asked ABUMALUIK for the permetion. Abraham peace be upon him did not mention the word israel at all.There is no land called israel, Israel was the name of a prophet not a name of a land. This prophet and his family left to Egypt to live there.and you come and call it israel. you must read the Tora at least to know that you are (not my Ami) you are (the hard necked). You changed Palestine to a big prostitution house. 24 h a day look for illegal sex which your prophet Israel forbided. But you still follow your lusts. the land the ,money, adultry,(rebet),ans etc.

Good point.
10. To Sam, a "pal"
Ariel ,   Jerusalem, Judaea   (10.02.05)
Your post just proves what I've written. - You haven't even bothered to check the sources up. Philistines were uncircuncised Trojans and other non-locals, so if you want to be the one, you've got to undergo an unpleasant chirurgical operation and to learn ancient Greek:))) Anyway, time & again, you, children of Hagar - Abraham's SLAVEGIRL - prove the biblical description of Ishmael as blood-thirsty savage (Gen:16, 12) So, buddy, nobody exspects a decent behaviour from you, don't worry - we all know it's in your blood.
11. EMPOWERING GLOBAL JIHAD. NEVER AN ARAB COUNTRY OF PALESTINE
Linda Rivera ,   New York   (10.03.05)
Global jihad is empowered as Islamofascists receive amazing help in the jihad against Israel from the international community. The entire world will pay the price of an Islamic terror state in Israel. THERE NEVER WAS AN ARAB COUNTRY OF PALESTINE. Jerusalem was NEVER the capital of any Arab or Muslim entity. JERUSALEM IS MENTIONED OVER 800 TIMES IN THE BIBLE, not once in the Koran. Around 1948, Arabs violently ETHNICALLY CLEANSED about one million Jews from Arab countries. Arab governments seized the land, homes, bank accounts, businesses and assets of the Jews. Most of the Jewish refugees fled to Israel. THERE MUST NOW BE A JUST SETTLEMENT FOR THE JEWISH REFUGEES AND THEIR DESCENDANTS-COMPENSATION IN LAND AND FINANCES. In 1922, Britain illegally gave MOST OF PALESTINE-80% TO THE ARABS. The area became Jordan, giving the Arabs an Arab Palestinian state on JEWISH land. IT WAS ETHNICALLY CLEANSED OF JEWS. This area is part of ancient, Biblical Israel, and along with present-day Israel, including Judea, Samaria, Gaza and the Golan was recognized by the League of Nations as the Jewish homeland. In 1948, Egypt invaded Gaza and ethnically cleansed ALL Jews. In 1948, Jordan invaded Judea-Samaria (West Bank) and east Jerusalem and ETHNICALLY CLEANSED ALL JEWS. Jordan, opposing G-D DESTROYED 58 synagogues in Jerusalem. In 1967 when Israel won Islam's religious war of aggression against it, Jews returned to the areas of their homeland they had been ethnically cleansed from for 19 years. Islamofascists DECEITFULLY call this return "occupation". Under international law, territories are considered "occupied" only when taken in an act of aggression which does not apply to Israel. Judea, Samaria and Gaza are not 'occupied territories' according to international law because they were not taken from any foreign sovereign. ALL of the Jewish land, homes, properties and businesses stolen from the Jews in the 1948 Islamic invasion must be returned to the Jews IMMEDIATELY
12. An Excellent Article!
Dudu ,   Kfra Sava   (10.03.05)
Yediot - Can we please have more decent articles like this one? This guy writes simple common sense. It makes a change from the nonsense of the Burgs, Londons and Plockers
13. BEFORE 1948, JEWS WERE THE PALESTINIANS
Linda Rivera ,   New York   (10.04.05)
Global jihad is greatly empowered as the U.S. EU and UN give astonishing support for an Islamic terror state in Israel that will threaten the world. There NEVER was an Arab country of Palestine. Jerusalem was NEVER the capital of any Arab or Muslim entity. JERUSALEM IS MENTIONED OVER 800 TIMES IN THE BIBLE, not once in the Koran. Arabs FIRST took the name “Palestinians” in 1967. Arafat was the FIRST leader of this NEW PEOPLE. Before 1948, Jews were known as the Palestinians! The Jewish newspaper, the Jerusalem Post was called the Palestine Post. http://palestinepostings.blogspot.com/2005/06/historical-palestinians-very-simple.html After the Jews miraculously transformed desert and swamps into rich, agricultural land (for which Jews are world famous!) Arabs came in large numbers from Arab countries for jobs from the Jews. The fact that the overwhelming majority of Arabs resided only briefly in Palestine is attested to by the special UN decree: that any Arab who had resided in Palestine FOR ONLY TWO YEARS BEFORE 1948, and then left, would be considered a refugee and so would his descendants!!! On March 31, 1977, Dutch newspaper Trouw published an interview with PLO executive committee member Zahir Muhsein: “The Palestinian people does not exist. The creation of a Palestinian state is only a means for continuing our struggle against the state of Israel for our Arab unity. In reality today there is no difference between Jordanians, Palestinians, Syrians and Lebanese. Only for political and tactical reasons do we speak today about the existence of a Palestinian people, since Arab national interests demand that we posit the existence of a distinct “Palestinian people” to oppose Zionism. For tactical reasons, Jordan, which is a sovereign state with defined borders, cannot raise claims to Haifa and Jaffa, while as a Palestinian, I can undoubtedly demand Haifa, Jaffa, Beer-Sheva and Jerusalem. However, the moment we reclaim our right to all of Palestine, we will not wait even a minute to unite Palestine and Jordan.”
14. Who Are Those so called Palestinians really
Gabrielle Goldwater ,   Geneva Switzerland   (10.04.05)
The Arab claim that they were the "aborigines" - that Arab Palestinians are the equivalent of the ancient Philistines. This is totally incorrect. The latter were a non-Semitic sea people from the Eastern Medit. or Aegean Sea area (of David and Goliath fame). Arab Palestinians are, for most part--despite the blending of populations over the millennia--mostly newcomers themselves from other Arab lands in the 20th century, and at most descendants from the 7th century C.E. Arab conquests by the Caliphal successors to Muhammad. With all the bally-hooed talk of the " RIGHTS OF RETURN " for the "Palestinians" this thought occurs to me : We do remember the posters and placards ubiquitously displayed in Vienna after the Anschluß proclaiming: "JUDEN NACH PALÄSTINA." And the philosopher Emanuel Kant, in his frequent anti-Jewish vituperations, suggested to " send these Palestinians " back to where they came from. So THEY... Were then referring to the Jews, since Arabs at that time were given with a stroke of a pencil by the British Trans-Jordan, which became Jordan. and a so called kingdom .... even at that time it was only a Hashemite Emir that was wanting land..... so the generous British, but only generous with Arabs .... took a pencil and drew a map. on land that was NOT for the British to deal out. Those who still don't grab history for crying out loud . LEARN SAME History in a Nutshell http://www.conceptwizard.com/conen/conflict_2.html
15. What is a Palestinian?
daniel ,   amsterdam   (10.04.05)
According to the UN a Palestinian is a non-Jew who lived in Palestine between the years 1946 and 1948: http://www.un.org/unrwa/refugees/whois.html "Palestine refugees are persons whose normal place of residence was Palestine between June 1946 and May 1948" According to the PLO a Palestinian is any non-Jew who lived in Palestine before 1947: http://www.iris.org.il/plochart.htm "Article 5: The Palestinians are those Arab nationals who, until 1947, normally resided in Palestine" As long as you lived in Palestine and were not a Jew, you can claim to be a Palestinian. Doesn't matter if you lived there just one day. One day is enough. Where did those 'Palestinians' come from? Take a look at how many Arabs want to work in Israel. Do you think the Egyptians in Rafah would not want to work in Israel if they could? Of course they would. As if by magic that would make them Palestinians aswell. Everybody can be a Palestinian. But there is only one nation responsible for the creation of the Palestinians: The Jews. The Palestinians owe their very existance to us. Without us they would be Syrians, Jordanians and Egyptians.
