This video segment from VOA News describes how many Gazans trace their roots to Kurdistan.

Of course, we knew this. There are plenty of Palestinians with the last name "el-Kurd" or "el-Kurdi," and many prominent Palestinian families proudly trace their roots to Arabia or Syria or Morocco or Turkey and everywhere else.

Tell me again about so called “native Palestinians” in the historic homeland of the Jews.

[montag813]

Yasser Arafat was Egyptian. Born in Cairo, school, at U of Cairo, Egyptian Army. Waves a friggin pink faggot wand and...POOOTFA...he’s a “Palestinian”. Kind of like a Hobbit or Elf, but less real.

[Wuli]

Much of the “Palestinian” narrative is that only Muslms, from wherever, had a right to emigrate to and be in “Palestine”, Jews from outside “Palestine” had/have no such similar rights.

As for racism, what portion of any of the Muslim states still has the portion of Jews they had in 1948? None. In most all the Jews are nearly gone. While in Israel 20% of the Israeli citizens are Arabs.

What are the real “aparthied” states in the Middle East. There are many of them and they are not Israel.

Mulims are so insecure in themselves that conversion from Islam is considered a crime in most Muslim dominant nations.

[Jim W N]

The Philistines, the ancient enemy of Israel.

Like most of the blacks in South Africa, the ‘Palestinians’ were not to be found until the CIVILIZED PEOPLE showed up first, and needed labor for their new country.

Now give us a list of Jewish names that link back to Eastern Europe, Morroco, Yeman, etc.

[Spok]

The sorry truth is that they don’t want a homeland; they just want to kill every Jew on earth, Israeli or otherwise. And the UN and most of the media in the world are good with that.

[Yulee]

Now give us a list of Jewish names that link back to Eastern Europe, Morroco, Yeman, etc.
*****************
Actually every one of those names except converts trace their linage back to Israel, before the Assyrians, Babylonians, and Romans conquered them. Jews have lived continually in Israel since around 1000 BC, even during the diaspora. Arabs (originally from the Arab Peninsula) invaded Israel in 638 AD. They took the name Palestinian from the imposed name given to Israel by the Romans (Philistine).

In fact only Jewish residents in Israel referred to them as “Palestinian” until after the modern nation of Israel was formed in 1948. All those of Arab descent referred to themselves as “Arab”. The rest Greek, Armenian etc.

[euram]

Pretty doubtful and impossible to prove.

[Yulee]

It’s all in the DNA.

[ptsal]

Bkmk

[Albion Wilde]

What does “Beit Sahour” mean?

[Paal Gulli]

Until 1967, everybody who lived in Israel was called “Palestinian.” The 6-Day War marked the end of the ‘relationship’ between Israel and the USSR. In retaliation, the USSR started a disinformation campaign to make “Palestinian” a political football.
