The truth is that Palestine is no more real than Never-Never Land. The
first time the name was used was in 70 A.D. when the Romans committed
genocide against the Jews, smashed the Temple and declared the land of
Israel would be no more. From then on, the Romans promised, it would be
known as Palestine. The name was derived from the Philistines, a Goliathian
people conquered by the Jews centuries earlier. It was a way for the Romans
to add insult to injury. They also tried to change the name of Jerusalem to
Aelia Capitolina, but that had even less staying power. >>
Darn it! I must really have a problem. I seem to recall that name in our
big atlas at home, and I swear it was in a bunch of my text books when I was
in school. What happened there? It was Palestine right up to the end of
WWII, and then by magic it disappeared and became Israel. I didn't mind at
the time, as I figured the people who lived there would just have to learn to
spell a new word. I was wrong. The people who lived there were not allowed
to live there any more, and the few who managed to hang on have been
tormented ever since. It's really the only place where the Nazi won the war.
