Palestine is NOT in the Bible, no way no how. The Philistines were not the same people as the Palestinians of today.
The real homeland of Palestine is Jordan, not Israel, but gee, let's not let the truth interfere with PC!

All right, let me clarify this...First off, the word "Palestine" is mentioned in the King James version of the Bible and we (including today's marchers) all know what it means now even if it didn't mean the same thing at the time of the translation. Now, the point is that most people acknowledge that there will ultimately be a "Palestinian" state if there is to be peace in the region. Given this, my point was that it seemed to me that the folks parading here were either in denial or to the right of Sharon and are not really interested in "peace". As I said in the "comment" above, it seems to me that the morally correct chant would have been something else...
