"After Goliath, it's been all downhill for them Philistines."
The Philistinians where a totally different race of people. They are now literally extinct. poof. no longer exists. The Arabs in Palestine are just that. A mixture of different tribes of Arabs who migrated into the area over a period of time.

As races go, you are correct. I was jesting in response to post 10, where fellow Arabs refer to the Palis as Philistines in derision.
