Philistine.

You can tell the Liberals until you’re blue in the face, and they won’t listen.

[Right_Wing_Madman]

In Roman times, the area was known as Judea and was ruled by Jewish kings

One clarification: after the death of Herod in 4 BC, the lineage of Jewish kings ended in Judea and the Romans ruled the province through their governors (though the Romans did allow Herod II to rule Judea in 41-44 AD). Pontius Pilate was one of the more famous Roman governors of Judea.

[rktman]

Correct.

[Cronos]

Well, the Roman’s did call it Syria-Philistia from 70 AD. However that has zero relevance to the current “Palestine “

Also the fact that they never gad a state doesn’t mean they can’t have one. And they do have a state of their own, it is called Jordan

Not one single call for a Free Palestine from 1948 to 1967:

Gaza was under Egypt’s control, the West Bank including East Jerusalem under Jordan’s.

The call Is limited to its use in attacking Jews.

[NoLibZone]

There has never been a single archaeological find of a Palestinian civilization or nation.

[Cronos]

and during Ottoman times

[21twelve]

“...the region was established as Israel, a Jewish state, although Arab Muslims have full civil rights in that nation.”

I saw some interesting videos of interviews after the 10/7 attack. Arab Muslims in the IDF saying how Israel is one. A Beduoin telling of the attack on him and his family, killing his wife point blank as she wore her head covering.

[SaveFerris]

I wish that David Jeremiah would stop referring to it as “The land of Palestine”

Completely ignores what happened after the Bar Kokhba Rebellion (132-135 A.D.) after the Romans erected a Temple to Jupiter

Result Roman victory

Restructuring of Judea as Syria Palaestina

Massacre of the Judean populace

Suppression of Jewish religious/political autonomy by Hadrian

Expulsion of the Jews from Jerusalem

Great resources, thanks for posting them.

[Daveinyork]

The province of Judea was renamed by the Roman Emporer Hadrian to punish the Jews for revolting. He renamed it Syria Palestina as a deliberate punishment and insult. The name was derived from the ancient, extinct enemy of Israel, the Philistines.

[Vaduz]

There never was, in all history, a State of Palestine.

I can see the media drawing up maps for the 6:00 news to prover there was one.

They never let reeducation go to waste.

[Kathy in OC]

Was there a State of Israel prior to 1948?

[MosesKnows]

Try telling some folks there never was a "Dixie" makes about as much sense as telling a Palestinian he doesn't exist.

To know the history of Palestine is to know the history of the world.
