Aren’t the Pali’s actually the Philistines of the Bible?

No. Not at all, except that the modern word has its origins in the ancient one.

The modern Palis are Arabs. "Palestine" is not an Arabic word. That is a pretty good indication that they until recently had nothing to do with each other.

HUMMM, lends credence to the theory that the Philistines had Greek origins. didn’t the Egyptians call them the SEA People?
