PA Historians: Israel's Biblical history is actually Arab Muslim history
by Itamar Marcus
Introduction
On an educational program on PA TV, two senior Palestinian Authority [PA] historians went to great lengths to deny ancient Jewish history and erase the Jewish connection to the Land of Israel. At the same time they describe an ancient Palestinian - Arab history, creating a historical connection to the land that never existed.
Two central components of this Palestinian myth consist of turning Biblical Israel into Muslim- Arabs, while teaching that the Palestinians are the descendents of the Biblical Canaanites, who are also turned into Arabs. With both the Canaanites and Israelites becoming Arabs and the religion of ancient Israel becoming Islam, the PA takes authentic Jewish history, documented by thousands of years of continuous literature, and crosses out the word "Jewish” and replaced it with the word "Arab".
This creative historical revisionism is not new in the PA. Denying the thousands of years of Jewish connection to the Land of Israel, coupled with the invention of "Palestinian" history of thousands of years, have always been of supreme importance to the Palestinian Authority. The PA is struggling with the challenge of creating a Palestinian national identity when no Palestinian national history exists. Even the term "Palestine" historically had nothing to do with Arab identity, and most of the population only migrated in the last century after the improved living conditions and work opportunities brought about by the Zionist movement.
Thus, incessant denial of Israel's history and right to exist, and the invention of a PA history have been backbones of PA indoctrination and education for years.
In the broadcast last week on PA TV the following are some of the main points of the "history".
1. The Hebrews of the Bible have no connection to the Jews today.
2. The Hebrews of the Bible were Arabs.
3. The Prophets of the Bible were Muslims.
4. Biblical King Solomon was a Muslim Prophet.
5. Solomon’s Temple was not built by Israelites but by Arab Canaanites.
6. The Canaanites are the forefathers of the Palestinians
7. The Bible is legends based on what Jews imagined and not on history.
8. The Jews today are descendents of a 13 th Century Khazar tribe with no history in the Land of Israel.
9. The location of the Temple Mount in Jerusalem is a Zionist invention.
10. Zionism is Racism.
The following are selections from the discussion on PA TV:
The historians:
Dr. Jarir Al-Qidwah, Head of the PA Public Library and Arafat's Advisor on Education
Dr. Issam Sissalem, Senior Historian and Educational TV host, former head of History Dept. of PA University
Moderator: Mohammed Albaz

PA TV, Aug. 2, 2004
Albaz: "Where did the story of Solomon’s Temple come from?"
Al-Qidwa: "Solomon’s Temple, I believe, was built by the Canaanites who were the neighbors of the Israelis, the Israelites... I want to state several words clearly: the Bible became an archival document, not representing what the Israelis and the first Jews were, but what they thought they were, what they imagined. The Temple is the fruit of their imagination. In any case, when our nation or our Canaanite forefathers came to Palestine, they built the Temple… a temple in Jerusalem"
Sissalem: "We, as the Palestinian nation fighting for its freedom and liberation, must not focus to much attention on these false [Biblical] legends. The history of our land continues more than ten thousand years. The land of battles and wars, [many] armies, tribes and commanders came through. I want to point out that we should not focus much on what is called the [Biblical] Hebrew tribes, who are in fact Bedouin – Arab tribes. There is no connection between them and these Khazar Jews [of Israel today]. Those [Hebrew - Arab] tribes were erased and ceased to exist and no traces were left of them… That group did not have a pure religion. They claimed that Solomon, may he rest in peace, built the Temple. Does the land testify to this? Solomon was a prophet and we see him as a Muslim and part of our [Islamic] heritage… There is no historical text that proves the existence [of the temple] or that it has a real history other than the Bible, and the Bible as we have previously mentioned… was written based on ancient legends."
Sissalem: "The Quran came directly from the Prophet [Muhammad]... while supporting all that preceded it in the [Biblical] Prophetic inscriptions, that, as you noted, appeared in the Quran as Muslims believing in the one and only God, and these [the Hebrew prophets of the Bible] are part of our [Muslim] heritage. They have no connection to the Imperialistic – Settlement Jews [Israelis] and nor to those that were destroyed."
Al-Qidwa: "The Jewish presence in Palestine and Jerusalem ended approximately in the year 70, when Titus utterly destroyed the Second Temple of Herod."
Sissalem: "When the Zionist movement started to set in motion the Imperialist – Settlement plan, it tried to base itself in the biblical legends, as we said, The Bible expresses a tradition of legends, that has no connection to history."
Viewer calls studio: "We say that when the Israelites... migrated to America. But the World Zionist Movement and the Free Masons drove them, while distorting the Bible and the Protocols of the Elders of Zion and the newly prepared Bible, drove them to come here [Israel]… these [the Jews] are the foreign invaders that will pass as the others passed, Allah willing."
Al-Qidwa: "Allah willing."
Sissalem: "Allah willing."
Albaz: "Allah willing."
Caller continues:"And Palestine will be for them a cemetery, Allah willing..."
Al-Qidwa: "Zionism is racist movement… that mixes or wears religious cloak, and it is false, but it mixes the nation and religion, like the mixture of the Jews. The Jews are a religion and not a race. The peculiar mixture we mentioned in the beginning is meant to follow the historical roots of the Bible, establishing a Jewish state in Palestine, and a so-called Jewish temple in the place of the [Islamic] Al Haram."
Al-Qidwa:"The issue of the temple is a Zionist innovation. No one said that the temple that was built in Jerusalem, neither the Canaanite nor Roman, no one said that it was in the place of the [Islamic] Al Haram."
Al-Qidwa: "These Jews, [after being conquered by Rome] were dispersed ... among many nations. The last, after many hundreds of years, the Khazar Jews, [are the ones] who live in Palestine [ie, Israel] today. When these people started to write the Bible they found that it was written in a [foreign] language... when they reached Palestine they had no knowledge or culture."
Albaz:"And without any historical or other link [to the land]."
Al-Qidwa: "And without any historical or other link... At first they were Shepherds. When they needed agricultural instruments, they went to the Canaanite cities to buy metal rods and knives and other things…"
Sissalem: "…About the Jews of Khazar... they had a state [in the Kavkaz (Caucasia)] and it was destroyed by the Vladimir Family and the Mongolian attack, that invaded them in the 13 th century. They dispersed in seclusion in ghettos, in what is called Russia, Ukraine, and Poland, and came to us [to Israel] in the 19 th century, with false Zionist claims based on legends."

These sandmaggots really believe that the rest of the world is as stupid and gullible as they are.
How come CAIR isn't protesting because there are no Muslims in Mel Gibson's movie?
"Jayson Blair."
LOL!!
Ali Babas of historical events.
Thet cannot even bring "Jesus" into there history lesson or make mention of him? Why" can they say he was not a Jew? that he only spoke to the Jews?
Who do they think brought Jesus to the rest of the Gentile world Ala-Akhbar?? The billions of Christians that today celebrate the Messiahship of Jesus Christ as the Son of the one true living GOD A Jewish Man?
Heheh heh
They don't Cair.
SO if one of there PA students are listening to there history lesson on Biblical History and they ask so teacher Mohammed "Who was Jesus? an Arab or Jew? do the billions of Christians believe Jesus the Arab is the SON OF GOD or JESUS the Jew is the SON OF GOD? As I pointed out in this Thread they cannot even mention Jesus maybe they should ask Arafat about Jesus so they can expand on there warpped version of Biblical history...
I thought Mohammed of the Koran couldn't read anyways....
I hope these mooselimb historians of Palace-sty are true. Then it would contradict with the fact that Islam as an excuse of a religion only happened in AD 700s. Thereby proving mohamed the bas-turd a sham, thus giving humanity an excuse for the forced civilisation of over 2 billion terrorists, which started with Afghanistan, and hope won't end with Iraq.

Who is Yasser Arafat nephew of Grand Mufti, Haj Muhammed Amin al-Husseini Mohammed Abdel-Raouf Arafat As Qudwa al-Hussaeini was born on August 24, 1929 in Cairo, his father a textile merchant who was a Palestinian with some Egyptian ancestry, his mother from an old Palestinian family in Jerusalem. His full name is also written as Abd al-Rahman abd al-Bauf Arafat al-Qud al-Husseini. Arafat shortened his name to obscure his kinship (nephew) to the notorious ex-Mufti of Jerusalem, Haj Muhammed Amin al-Husseini who collaborated with the Nazis during World War II. |

Grand Mufti, Haj Muhammed Amin al-Husseini Grand Mufti, Haj Muhammed Amin al-Husseini place as leader of the radical, nationalist Palestinian Arabs was taken by his nephew Mohammed Abdel-Raouf Arafat As Qudwa al-Hussaeini, better known as Yasser Arafat. In August 2002, Arafat gave an interview in which he referred to "our hero al-Husseini" as a symbol of Palestinian Arab resistance. According to documentation from the Nuremberg and Eichmann trials, the Nazi Germany SS helped finance al-Husseini's efforts in the 1936-39 revolt in Palestine. Adolf Eichmann actually visited Palestine and met with al-Husseini at that time and subsequently maintained regular contact with him later in Berlin. In 1940, al-Husseini requested the Axis powers to acknowledge the Arab right:
While in Baghdad, Syria al-Husseini aided the pro-Nazi revolt of 1941. He then spent the rest of World War II as Hitler's special guest in Berlin, advocating the extermination of Jews in radio broadcasts back to the Middle East and recruiting Balkan Muslims for infamous SS "mountain divisions" that tried to wipe out Jewish communities throughout the region. At the Nuremberg Trials, Eichmann's deputy Dieter Wisliceny (subsequently executed as a war criminal) testified:
With the collapse of Nazi Germany in 1945, the Mufti moved to Egypt where he was received as a national hero. After the war al-Husseini was indicted by Yugoslavia for war crimes, but escaped prosecution. The Mufti was never tried because the Allies were afraid of the storm in the Arab world if the hero of Arab nationalism was treated as a war criminal.

This is exactly right. The Arabs of Palestine do not share a collective history, so they do not have much vision for the future as a 'nation'. That is one reason why they are currently turning on themselves. There is an opportunity for them to unite, but that opportunity has brought along dozens of opportunists like Arafat and others who seek to exploit it for personal gain, which only reinforces the divisions.
The Arabs of Palestine are like most other Arabs, they are tribal and relate to their clans. They have not been very nationalistic, and only a few who understood the power of nationalism were able to strike deals with the west to take control. It takes a form of fascism to unite them, like the Ba'athists in Iraq and Syria, the fascism of Nasser in Egypt, or the religious fascism of the Saudi Wahabbis - and indeed the patriarchal family clan structure is a form of fascism in itself.
But in the WB the powerful families who control loyalties like the Husseinis, Nashashibis, etc have not surrendered their loyalties to the Arafat's PLO. Add to this mix the hardline fundamentalists like Hamas, Al-Aqsa, Hezbullah, and the other clans and gangs and platoons of security services (who, I should add, are often recruited from the powerful families in a deal made with the PLO leader) you have no easy way to enact positive change on the peace front. Every small time thug, family elder, clan leader, etc wishes to protect his interests.
Thanks Alaska, your production's a keeper.
It's all Da Jooos' fault!
(Yep, actually, it is; Joshua & his successors should have obeyed the Lord's command, and completely wiped ALL of the Amorites, Canaanites, Perizzites, Hittites, Hivites, Jebusites, Prevertites, and those other tribes out.)
From a 19th-Century History of Palestine as written by a Palestinian, Rabbi Joseph Schwarz, living in Jerusalem in 1850:
There are nowhere to be met with regular documents in respect to its history, states, and towns; the past seems to have been entirely forgotten; so that the whole country cared, so to say, only for the present, and took no cognizance of what had prededed or was to follow. It is true that some few Arabic historians have written something concerning Palestine, such as Abulfeda and Serif ibn Idrus; but their works have almost entirely disappeared, as was to be supposed would be the case under a government which had not and suffered not a free press. It was only with the greatest trouble that I could obtain here and there an historical document, and I extracted therefrom only what interested me, that is, what has reference to the Israelitish people, but not the general and to us indifferent accounts and narratives. Reports referring to modern times, I obtained occasionally by way of tradition. Therefore it cannot excite surprise that the historical portion of my book should be so brief and simple.
PA TV ? What is this ? These monkeys have their own TV ?
Yeah, better to control, inflame, and brainwash the masses. Kind of like ABC, CBS, NBC, and CNN, here in Western civilization, except we have Free Republic where the last few remaining sane people congregate.
"He escaped to Switzerland, was expelled from there back to Germany, was captured by the French army and placed under house arrest; then he escaped from France to Cairo on a false passport, and became the head of the Arab Higher Committee." *
Yes. The US and EU pay for it
