31. #22- Finally someone who knows their history
Susan ,   Starkville, MS USA   (01.22.08)
Thanks, Joe, for pointing out the fact that Palestine was a territory, not a nation. In fact, it was given this name during the Roman occupation in order to humiliate and mock the Jews: their greatest enemy were the Philistines, therefore the name Philistia, or Palestine, was given to the Jewish State. Also, Jesus was a "Palestinian" Jew. So chew on that a bit, smile! Learn your history, and read in the Bible the territory God gave to the Jews-Gaza, or Canaan was part of the promised land!
