Yes I do. The Palis have been thrown out of every country they’ve infected over the last 10 or 20 centuries.
I think it’s great that they are trying to run to Egypt.
That’s like jumping in to luxury.

When Kuwait fell to Saddam the Palis were in there looting like locusts.

Where do you get THAT? People who call themselves Palestinians today are mostly descendents of those who came in the 1800s and 1900s to work on Jewish farms because the Jews had made fertile land out of the desert due to hard work and intelligence. These people came from Egypt, Syria and Iraq.
You point about 10/20 centuries is just wrong. Up until 70 AD, the land was Jewish (And Jewish Idumeans/Edomites). After the Second Jewish war when the Romans cast them out, the land fell fallow. Even under the Byzantines, 600 years later, the land was practically uninhabited and unfarmed. This was a back-water of the Empire inspite of being a pilgramage destination.
There is next to no mention of the lands that now include Israel and the Palestinian territories in Byzantine annals.
Then, the Muslims came and still it remained a backwater. Even until the early 1800s when BRitish explorers came there, they just found nomads and empty cities and tiny villages.
There were never any "Palestinians", just nomads and maybe small groups of the original inhabitants, including Jewish groups and Samaritans. The rest left for better lands, closer to the hubs of Empire (Byzantine, Shiraz, Persepolis, Baghdad, Alexandria, Rome, Fez, etc.)
