IIRC, the term Palestine dates back to Rome. The Romans used that term as a dig at the Jews. It was a derivative of Philistines and it was used as a slur to call the Jews Palestinians.

The irony is the real Palestinians are the Jews.

Nice try. Judea, not Palestine!

Palestinians are actually Jordanian by descent.
