    At no point in history was there ever a Palestinian country

    Then why did the Brits use the word Palestine?

    There is no Palestinian that can trace his lineage to some Palestinian hundreds of years ago.

    Are you like a disinformation bot??? How do you even suggest to prove this claim???

      Wait. To counter my argument that there is no Palestine you provide a snapshot of the mandate recognizing the historical connection of the Jewish people to the land? Doesn’t that counter your arguments? Yes, the british called this peice of land Palestine. Do you know where the name originates from? The Jewish Bible where the Philistines are mentioned as large red headed folk probably originating from somewhere near Greece. So do the current Palestinians claim to be their decendants? Jewish people have always lived in the region of Israel which was under the occupation of numerous other empries. The arab folk living in Israel prior to 1948 can trace their heritages to a myriad of neighboring countries such as Syria, Lebanon, Jordan, Egypt, Iraq and so forth (Some of their surnames are a clear indication of that).

        You didn’t answer my question. If Palestine never existed then why did everyone in the area call it Palestine?

        Also sorry to break this to you but the Bible is no basis for history or genetics rofl
