History of "Palestine" 1273 BCE to 1948
The only time "Palestine" was ruled by "Palestinians" or any people
from the Arabian Peninsula was briefly around 635 A.D.
"The only Arab domination since the Conquest in 635 A.D. hardly
lasted, as such, 22 years...," the Muslim chairman of the Syrian
Delegation attested in his remarks to the Paris Peace Conference in
February 1919.
"Yes, the existence of a separate Palestinian identity serves only
tactical purposes. The founding of a Palestinian state is a new tool
in the continuing battle against Israel... " Zuheir Muhsin, late
Military Department head of the PLO and member of its Executive
Council, Dutch daily Trouw, March 1977
