I've been looking through an "atlas of history" which is very interesting... Palestine first appears on Page 8. They even go through how the Hebrews became Jews, and why, and when. Palestine was Palestine when Lebanon was Phoenecia, and before... and they have never been a "nation" by our modern definitions. Reminds me of the Africans and native Americans who didn't have papers that said they owned their land... so the land had no owners, according to the white males involved. When, indeed.
