There are no more Philistines and the people who currently call themselves Palestinian have no relation; no more than they could claim relation to one of twenty different peoples or tribes that have resided in that area in history. Modern day Palestinians are a hodgepodge of Arabic people from the greater Egyptian and Syrian, Lebanese and Jordanian areas.
It is frequently difficult to ascertain the intentions of the O admin. Actions are taken that are clearly incompetent. As well, some actions are obvious attempts to side with our enemies. These are not JV players. They are children with ridiculous ideas messing about in business they do not understand.
I just read a bit on the Philistines. Maybe the experts are right and they don’t have any relation to the modern Palestinians.
It appears they were probably either Greek or Minoan colonists. They were fierce warriors and worthy opponents to the Israelites. They were not even always their enemy.
The Palestinians on the other hand always lose to the Israelis.
