No...There has never been a country or nation known as Palestine...

In fact, historically, there was never an independent country named Palestine. There was for a time a Roman province named Palestine, when the Romans bestowed that name in the second century A.D. ... So, the historical record says that Palestine was never a country, and was rarely ever an intact entity.May 11, 2011

Please forget one of the great fallacies of our time: Israel did not steal Palestinian land. It’s not Palestinians’ land; it’s never been their land; it will never be their land. This land was given to the Jewish people, as stated in the Bible, by the Creator, and will remain the homeland of the Jewish people in perpetuity. Despite 27 invasions of Judea and Samaria (erroneously called the West Bank), conquests by many, forced conversions, exiles, massive oppression, generations of Diaspora, and cowardly acquiescence by a cadre of 5th-column Jews themselves, Jews have not only survived in what’s known in Hebrew as Eretz Yisrael (Israel), but they’ve taken a desert wasteland and turned it into a powerful little democracy, the envy of the world

The declaration of a State of Palestine (Arabic: دولة فلسطين‎) took place in Algiers on November 15, 1988, by the Palestinian National Council, the legislative body of the Palestinian Liberation Organization (PLO). It was approved by the Palestinian National Council (PNC) by a vote of 253 in favour, 46 against and 10 abstentions. It was read by Yasser Arafat at the closing session of the 19th PNC to a standing ovation.[78] Upon completing the reading of the declaration, Arafat, as Chairman of the Palestine Liberation Organization assumed the title of "President of Palestine".[79] By the 1988 declaration, the PNC empowered its central council to form a government-in-exile when appropriate, and called upon its executive committee to perform the duties of the government-in-exile until its establishment.[78] The borders of the state were not specified. Jordan extended recognition to the state and ceded its claim to the West Bank to the Palestinian Liberation Organisation, which had been previously designated by the Arab League as the "sole legitimate representative of the Palestinian people".[77][80][81][82] They named THEMSELVES a "State"... They have never been a sovereign nation....

uh no, the romans declared it But thats too easy. You see there romans ruled the are and they called it Palestine. So you can listen to anyone you want, I’ll accept the authority of the time. Your problem is this blows your entire argument out of the water.

Good day

I may have crossed comment. I never wanted to condone anything she says. i was addressing palestine in the roman era not her comment.

Anyone else would be pressured into resigning. the first question out of every journalists mouths to a democrat is if they denounced Tlaib.

That’s right.

The spirit of the Democrat party and the Left is actually the spirit of antichrist.

The end fast approaches.

Most of the above posts were copied from research on the internet, not my personal comments i.e. your reference to “independent”...

Whether you accept it or not, Palestine has never been a country or a nation...

You do know the difference between a “state” and a “nation”, don’t you???

Tennessee is a “state”, not a “nation”...
United States of America is a “nation”, not a “state”...

And, as I said once before, an “area” is known as “Palestine”, just as an “area” in known as “Appalachia”.

Neither is known as a state or country or nation...

I don’t understand what your problem is with seeing this...

"Anyone else would be pressured into resigning. The first question out of every journalist's mouths to a Democrat [would be] if they denounced Tlaib."

I'm assuming you meant that if a REPUBLICAN said something like this, his/her resignation would be demanded, and every other REPUBLICAN would immediately be asked to denounce her. And that is exactly what would happen.

state and nation have often been used synonymously.

You are using one example, the US to show Palestine was a state like the US. The romans didn’t use that concept. There was no United States of Rome.

here’s a simple way to unravel the ball of twine in which you have entailed yourself. If the romans called it palestine, and they were in charge, then it was palestine. So your comment that there was no palestine is just historically and logically inaccurate.

There are other historical references to Palestine before and after Christ, if you want to refresh your research.
