1. Arab settlers!!
(09.13.07)
Since when the Arabs become settlers in this land?? From the Canaanites, through the Nabateans, Arabs have been present in this land... They were in part pagans, some converted to Judaism like the family of Herod's the Great, and so on.... This is a misleading biased article... Do not confuse Arabians, with Muslims.... Arabs have been pouring into Palestine since 2500 BC... Amorites, Canaanites, etc all originated in Arabia.
2. To #1, Ignorance
Jake   (09.13.07)
If there is anything to wake up the world to fraudulent Arab claims and hammer nails into the coffin of the 'Palestinian cause', it is your bogus claim that the Arab Palestinians are desended from Canaanites. This claim is worse than spurious. It is laughable. Calling Herod an Arab, when he was a Jew of Edomite descent (Edomites were themselves Hebrews, descended from Jacob's brother Esau) shows hardheaded ignorance. At least, the Jews have their claim carefully documented in the Bible, which has become the most cherished document in the Western world. What claim to the 'Palestinians' have to antiquity?
