The very notion of a “Palestinian Arab nation”, having ancient attachments to the Holy Land going back to time immemorial is one of the biggest hoaxes ever perpetrated upon the world! There is not, nor has there ever been, a distinct “Palestinian” culture or language. Further, there has never been a Palestinian state governed by Arab Palestinians in history, nor was there ever a serious Arab-Palestinian national movement until 1964…three years BEFORE the Arabs of “Palestine” lost the West Bank (Judea and Samaria) and Gaza as a result of the 1967 Six Day’s War (which the Arabs started). Even the so-called leader of the “Palestinian” people, Yasser Arafat, is Egyptian! In short, the so-called Arab “Palestinians” are a manufactured people…a people with no history and no authority…whose sole purpose for existence is to destroy the Jewish State!

Israel first became a nation in 1312 B.C., two thousand years before the rise of Islam! Seven hundred and twenty-six years later, in 586 B.C., these first ancient Jews in the land of Israel (Judea) were overrun and Israel’s First Jewish Temple (Solomon’s Temple) on Jerusalem’s Old City Temple Mount was destroyed by Nebuchadnezzar, king of ancient Babylon. Many of the Jews were killed, enslaved or expelled; however many were allowed to remain. These Jews along with their progeny and other Jews, who would resettle over the next 500 years, rebuilt the Nation of Israel and also a Second Temple in Jerusalem on the same site as Solomon’s Temple. Thus, the claim that Jews suddenly appeared fifty years ago, right after the Holocaust, and drove out the Arabs is preposterous!

Then, in 70 A.D.(nearly 2,000 years ago), it was the Roman Empire’s turn to march through ancient Israel, known at that time as Judea, and destroy the Second Jewish Temple, slaughtering or driving out much of the Jewish population. The Romans, without success, had tried to impose their many deities on the Jews, but few Jews were willing to submit to the Roman demands regarding their worship, and were certainly unwilling to regard a Roman Emperor as a divine being.

After a succession of uprisings against Roman rule, in which over one and a half million Jews were killed, enslaved or driven out of their homeland, the then Roman Procurator in charge of the area decided to take even another measure in retaliation. Calling his scribes, he asked the historians as to who had been the worst enemies of the Jews in past history. He was told the “Philistines.” Having this determination, he then ordered all maps altered to reflect that the Land of Israel (Judea) would be labeled “Philistia” (further bastardized into “Palaistina”) to dishonor the Jews and obliterate them, if only figuratively, from the map. Hence, the name “Palestine” was invented, and entirely appropriate that this invented name of the Romans would be used by Muhammad’s invented religion of Islam, over 1,800 years later, when initiating its campaign to steal the Jewish homeland.

Over 3,250 years, various Peoples, Religions and Empires marched through Jerusalem, Israel’s ancient capital established by King David. The region was successively ruled by the Hebrews (Jews), Assyrians, Babylonians, Persians, Greeks, Maccabeans, Romans, Byzantines, Arabs, Egyptians, the Crusaders, Mamelukes, the Turks (who indifferently governed the backward neglected territory from the 16th Century until the British drove them out during World War I) and then once again by the Jews in 1948. None bothered, nor were they in the least bit inclined, to build a Nation of their own…EXCEPT the Jews!

It should be noted that in 636 A.D., when the Arab marauders of Muhammad came to the land, and uprooted even more of the Jews, they did not form any Arab nation there…and certainly not a “Palestinian” nation. They were simply “Arabs” who, as did others before them, moved into a geo-political area called “Palestine!” And, remember this one fact…it was not the Jews who “usurped” (a favorite word from the Arab propagandists) the land from the Arabs. It was the Arabs in 636 A.D. who overran and stole it from the Jews! A point: The Dome of the Rock Mosque was constructed atop the ruins of the second Jewish Temple, and not vice-versa!

The Jewish People have the most legitimate “Birth Certificate” of any nation in the world! Every time there is an archaeological dig in Israel, it does nothing but support the fact that the Jewish People have had a presence there for well over 3,000 years. The national coins, the pottery, the cities, the ancient Hebrew texts…all support this claim. Yes, other peoples have passed through, but there is no mistaking the fact that Jews have always had a continuous presence in that land for over 3,000 years. This predates and certainly dwarfs any claims that other people in the regions may have.

IN CONCLUSION: No nation, other than the ancient nation of Israel and later again in 1948, with the rebirth of the 2nd Nation of Israel, has ever ruled as a sovereign national entity on this land. A mighty Jewish empire extended over this entire area many centuries before the Arabs, and their newly invented religion of Islam appeared on the scene in the 7th Century A.D.

Dafty Weegie the fact that Jews lived here is of course factually known and this is obviously cause for a right nor do the arabs have a distinctive claim other than the one that christaians have as well that it is the holy land and it should be protected against non-beleivers. But the arabs that have lived their have lived their much longer than most modern Jews. It was not a nation but people lived their and called it home. I find it hard to judge both sides people will claim that the israelies slaughter the palestinians of Gaza but then I am not exactly confident that the muslims are some how innocent it as been shown quite clearly Muslims don’t like Israel moderate muslims believe them to be wrong and more extremist want to destroy it.
Jack the picts were just another invasion they came from Ireland. The biblical does concern us because this is were the Jewish claim comes from or the Talmud. The Quran is were the muslims get theirs. This is the problem with nations attached to faith Judiasm is a faith and a race it is hard to come down on any side and our 21st century sensibilities are usually abused by both sides to try to gain our support. If the west were more willing to let them get on with it the situation would be less ploliticised.

The Arabs were allowed in by the Jews to work and build the country, it is the satanic death cult of Islam that teaches them to hate Israel and turned them against the Jews and created all the problems that we see today, terrorism and the terrorism in the wider world etc etc. The proof that Palestine is invented purely to destroy Israel should explain everything its simple and the real evil behind this ISLAM. In terms of scientific, engineering and medical developments the Jews have given more to the world than any other race just look at the amount of Nobel prize winners that are Jewish, even windows XP was made in Israel allowing you to read this. The Arabs have given nothing and their cult of Islam wants to convert or kill you

(and then kill your homosexual friends & relatives, kill unchaste females friends & relatives, kill you if try to leave……)

Paul says:

Palestine claims to be a natiion but it most certainly has the best Press office. Several countries have minority muslims and each calim to want a nation of Islam. this nation is represseve. Islam as a form of governance is unacceptable it often discriminates against women and holds back its people. The worry of palestine and others like it is the fact that they beleive that Islam is the only reason to have that land. Also it is well known that the arabs which palestinians are. Forcefully took the land off of the byzantine Empire. The fact is the palestinians claiming the land as theirs is essentially like our immigrant communities claiming this lands as their own and splitting the land. i.e. the way that the Scottish immigrants to northern Ireland now claim this land as their own this is wrong.
