That is the region known as Palestine. I guess the answer to your question would be, they should call themselves Sumarians, Phoenicians, Galileans, Judeans, Pereans and Decapolisians.

The Palestinians want their own country. There’s just one thing about that: There are no Palestinians. It’s a made up word. Israel was called Palestine for two thousand years. Like ‘Wiccan,’ ‘Palestinian’ sounds ancient but is really a modern invention. Before the Israelis won the land in the 1967 war, Gaza was Owned by Egypt , the West Bank was owned by Jordan , and there were no ‘Palestinians.’
As soon as the Jews took over and started growing oranges as big as basketballs, what do you know, say hello to the ‘Palestinians,’ weeping for their deep bond with their lost ‘land’ and ‘nation.’
So for the sake of honesty, let’s not use the word ‘Palestinian’ any more to describe these delightful folks, who dance for joy at our deaths until someone Points out they’re being taped. Instead, let’s call them what they are: ‘Other Arabs Who Can’t Accomplish Anything In Life And Would Rather Wrap Themselves In The Seductive Melodrama Of Eternal Struggle And Death.’ I know that’s a bit unwieldy to expect to see on CNN. How about this, then: ‘Adjacent Jew-Haters.’ Okay, so the Adjacent Jew-Haters want their own country. Oops, just one more thing: No, they don’t. They could’ve had their own country. Anytime in the last thirty years, especially several years ago at Camp David. But If you have your own country, you have to have traffic lights and garbage trucks. And Chambers of Commerce, and, worse, you actually have to figure out some way to make a living.
That’s no fun. No, they want what all the other Jew-Haters in the region want: Israel. They also want a big pile of dead Jews, of course that’s where the Real fun is — but mostly they want Israel.

I'm sure they do live in Palestine but the issue was not where they live but rather what one would label the people who live in Palestine.
The Palestinians don’t live in Palestine. That’s what they are bidjing about.
Okay, let's approach it this way.
What do you call people who don't live in Palestine?
Now, after you've answered that tell me what you call the people who do live in Palestine?
Arabs.
The same thing you call people who live at Hogwarts?
ping
Jews and disaffected arabs.
Sat in synagogue with Larry Miller a few years ago. He really is a great guy.
I don’t call Canadians or Mexicans ‘Americans’ even though they live in North America.
I guess the people who live in Sonora are Sonorans and deserve their own country. They want to call it Atzlan though.

All of those things existed before Mohamhead and Islam did.
The people living in Sonora Texas or California don’t call themselves Sonorans but what in the world would cause you to guess that if they did they’d deserve to be a country?
The people who live in Palestine do call themselves Palestinians and according to most reports I’ve read, they do feel they deserve their own country.
I couldn’t locate what you read on the thread that caused you to make such a silly guess. Would you share what you base your guess on?
Neither do the Canadians or Mexicans. What is your point?
That would be correct for both Palestine and Israel.
Okay, I call the people who live at Hogwarts Palestinians. There, that's settled.
Proverbs 14:7 Go from the presence of a foolish man, when thou perceivest not in him the lips of knowledge.
That is the region known as Palestine. I guess the answer to your question would be, they should call themselves Sumarians, Phoenicians, Galileans, Judeans, Pereans and Decapolisians.
What in the world would cause you to think the people living in Gaza, former Egyptians, or the people living in the West Bank, former Jordanians, deserve a country?
Canadians and Mexicans do call themselves Americans as do people in Central America and South America. They actually get mad about U.S. citizens calling themselves Americans. You really need to do some research.
So now, you finally admit there are people called Palestinians. That reverses your previous position; what was your point?
