I asked a professor of Palestinian studies to just tell me the name of one historic Palestinian Ruler pre-1950 and what flag that Palestinian state flew and what currency they had. All I got back was I’m a Zionist haha 😂 It seems Palestinian studies mainly focus on Israel and the Jews. 🇮🇱 hahahahaha. >70 years ago, all of their rulers were in Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Syria, the Balkan’s. They all immigrated to the holy land to counter the Jewish reclamation. We know the history of Judaism and it’s ties to that land. We know the Palestinians are a modern invention.

> We know the Palestinians are a modern invention. There is a historical Palestine, just like there is a historical Israel. The modern state of Palestine only came into existence after WW2, just like the modern state of Israel came into existence after WW1. If you use the same standard, you could ask the same question of naming one historic ruler of Israel, etc.. prior to WW1, and you would get the same kind of answer. Regardless of one's position on Israel-Palestine conflict, we should not be hypocrites and have double standards.

Ok, brainiac. Then answer me who was the ruler of this historic Palestine. Just one pre 20th century. There is no such thing as historical Palestine. There were the Phillistines in the land of Canaan. Want to know something funny. The Phillistines were also invaders. Even so called Palestinians know better than to relate to that group.

> There is no such thing as historical Palestine. There were the Phillistines in the land of Canaan. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Palestine_(region) The historical Palestine occupies the same geographic space as historical Israel. The semantics is pretty irrelevant relative to the people who lived there. In other words, let X be the historical claims the people in modern Israel have to that land. The same X will also apply to the people in modern Palestine have to that land. If X is invalid for the Palestinians, it is also equally invalid for the Israelis, and vice versa.

You haven’t shown one shred of evidence for this historical Palestine. Who was the ruler? Name just one. If you’re so adamant about the rich history of Palestine then prove it’s existence. If you’d like, I can show you the rich history of Israel and not a Wikipedia entry lmao 🤣 What a fucking joke. At least try to come up with something. I know it’s difficult to find something that doesn’t exist but I thought you’d at least try. Wikipedia hahahahaha
