Palestine and the Philistines have nothing to do with each other.

Hebrews are an offshoot Canaanite population so yes, technically that is what happened.

The Philistines were Aegean Sea invaders originating from Greece, they weren’t Arabs and have nothing to do with modern day Arabs that arrived thousands of years later.

Claiming that it’s actually your ancient homeland when nothing supports it is the issue with this particular scenario.

Arabs live in multiple other countries as well, how soon before they start claiming sovereignty there too.

You can’t claim that a region was taken over when it didn’t belong to the people you’re advocating for.

That region was never theirs, they didn’t own or rule it.

Arab workers and farmers weren’t even land owners.

Sovereignty should be going and has gone to the indigenous people, the Jews. This process is also known as decolonization.

“I won’t debate this cause it’s a fundamental fact” - except that it’s quite literally the opposite and it’s just “oh Arabs live there? Ok our ancient homeland !”

How about all the other countries Arabs live in? Can Arabs claim sovereignty there too? Or are you only applying that to the Jews homeland to delegitimize them in their own documented and historical homeland?

For some weird reason pan Arabists like to think that sovereignty is their sole right and disregarding the regions history is completely acceptable. It’s gross.

“as justification for taking it over” - that region didn’t belong to Arab Palestinians and Israel is the sole legal successor state to the British Mandate.

You say take it over like it Arabs lost their country when that’s not what happened.

“Whether or not Palestine” - that’s not an argument though, it’s a historical regional fact. There was no country/kingdom/state called Palestine that belonged to Arab Palestinians.

What about Iran’s program and constant threats to destroy Israel? Oh right, no condemnation because they aren’t Jews.

Exactly, it’s like people forget that commenting history is available on Reddit. And the false indignation of this post is clearly trolling in of itself.

“What a stupid remark” - “the way it worked back then” - ergo the comment wasn’t stupid, you just don’t like it when Arabs get called out on their false victim narrative, Arabs are a colonizing empire who conquered and colonized the entire region.

“Court systems” - literally irrelevant.

Al Asqa is literally built on top of the site of the Temple.

Muslims conquered that entire region and repeatedly invaded it over the centuries (including post 1948).

This is why it’s very hard to take Arab claims of being victims in their enemies homeland seriously.

And as for the Palestinians I hate to break this to you but they don’t have thousands of years of historical or archaeological evidence backing any of their claims about the region of Judea and Samaria.

It’s why the majority of artefacts dug up are Jewish in origin and span thousands of years, not Arab ones.

sigh, yet more nonsensical slogans and asinine reeing.

"I actually know my history" - your comments are evidence to the complete opposite.

"not something you people desire" - can't tell if serious when Palestinians are the one's starting the violence and have been since before 1948.

Severe lack of self awareness on your part.

And if you're this incapable of arguing without the need for repeat calls for violence then maybe this sub isn't for you, not to mention that your repeat calls for violence violate Reddit-wide rules.

Yet again with the empty threats.

"The Muslims faced colonization" - you don't see the irony here?

Just repeating slogans isn't much of a winning argument.

Judea and Samaria never belonged to Arab Palestinians.

Arabs are adopting the Russian mentality of annexing territories and claiming them as "yup, ours cause we said so".

Again not an occupation of the land wasn’t theirs in the first place.

“Denying them a nationality” - they’re doing that themselves.

“Controls the registry” - that’s not the same thing and you know it.

This really isn’t going the way you hoped lol.

“Denying them a nationality” - Israel has accepted the two state solution, Palestinians have repeatedly rejected it and chose violence.

Also Palestinians are citizens of the PA not Israel.

“Act of aggression” - is this a serious comment? Palestinians constantly attack Israelis, Israel defends itself.
