    There will be many reading this that do not know what the infamous ' Balfour Declaration ' was. Stay with the thread and judge it for yourself.

    Now a law suit, presumably through the English courts, would be an interesting spectacle...

    Is the UK really going to hold centenary celebrations of the Balfour Agreement? Man that is nuts. Start digging out a bomb shelter!

    After this lawsuit gets laughed out of court the pounding of sand will follow.

    Shoulda listened to your Caliph, Abu. This is what you get for conspiring with the duplicitous British and stabbing him in the back.

    And the Protocols parrots will blame Israel for their treason, too...:roflol:

    But, Palestine is a Roman invention. It separates the Jordanian people.
    How about Judea and Samaria Firsters.

    I've given this news some thought and have to thank you, moon, for providing us with such entertainment. I'll be staying with this thread as you have asked, and be watching this development with great interest.

    As somebody who believes that apartheid was a feature of South America I'm sure that your contributions will be side-splitting.

    No good deed goes unpunished.

    After the British opened the floodgates for the Jews then the British tried to put the genie back into the bottle and couldn't.

    Then the Israelis began to war against the British as well.

    A tiger can turn on its master anytime.

    The ancient Egyptians and Greeks also called it Palestine.

    Google it.

    I don't use that name anywhere, yiostheoy.

    There's no statute of limitations on imperialist stupidity.

    Moonglow is a friend of mine from another forum.

    His moniker came up with I was @-functioning yours.

    He spends most of his time in that other forum.

    I quit going there because of too much really vulgar profanity, body parts, body orifices, etc.

    That was just to mark it as occupied by the Philistines.
    Another foreign demarcation of that land.
    I vote Judea and Samaria. :)

    psst, I just Googled it too.
    Pre Roman, Okay. But, still not native.

    No no no, moon is mocking me. I erroneously mentioned South America as being a birthplace of apartheid, so moon is having a bit of fun on my account.

    Let her :)

    Palestine exited far earlier than the Romans, or the Greeks, for that matter.

    So your claim it was a Roman invention, is just wrong. The name is a heck of a lot more older than that. You googled where the Palestinians themselves came from? You end up finding that those people are the natives, who mingled with who ever came by to eventually adopt the Arabic culture.

    ' Pale- ' means 'old '. 'stine' means ' ' stone'.

    The earliest people in the region appeared in the neolithic period.
    There were no neolithic Jews.


    You're just playing ' sounds like ' for effect. That's remarkably silly.
