The myth of Palestine

Obama erroneously states that Israel should return to the Palestinians all the land prior to the 1967 war. History confirms that it was only after the Jews reinhabited their historic homeland of Judea and Samaria that the myth of the Arab Palestinian nation was created and marketed worldwide.

There is no language known as Palestinian or any Palestine culture distinct from that of all Arabs in the area.

There never has been a land known as Palestine governed by Palestinians. Palestinians are Arabs that migrated into Israel, Judea and Samaria from the surrounding Arab countries in the past 100 years.

The claim that the Jews stole the Palestinian homeland is and still remains a myth.

All this info is available online and can be confirmed by honest seekers.

As Arafat proved with his rejection of Israel’s peace offer, the intent of the Arabs is not coexistence but the elimination of Israel.
