Really, Sunface. Thank you for the opportunity to quote Emporer Hadrian via my article on Jesus of Nazareth:
It is commonly reported that Jesus was a Palestinian Jew. That he was Jewish seems uncontroversial. However, the term of Syria-Palestinia is first used by Roman Emperor Hadrian:
"It was also referred to, however, as Palestine and, after the Bar-Kochba Revolt of 132-136 CE, the Roman emperor Hadrian renamed the region Syria-Palaestina to punish the Jewish people for their insurrection (by naming it after their two traditional enemies, the Syrians and the Philistines). The designations Philistia, Roman Judea, and Palestine were all in use afterwards."

That is laughable to be honest. "It is commonly reported that Jesus was a Palestinian Jew" Commonly reported, of course... a narrative of the media and Wiki Wonka. Why then was Palestine never shown anywhere on a map of the Assyrian empire. In the first century BCE, King Herod, also known as Herod the Great, was the ruler of the Roman province of Judea. There was no Roman province of Palestine. Yeshua was born in "the Land of Judah" (Matt 2:6) or "the Land of Israel" (Matt 2:20), and he preached throughout "the Land of the Jews" (Acts 10:39) or in "Judea".
It was only a geographical description created in the San Remo Conference of 1920, “Palestine” was a generalized geographic description for an area that could be as small as the Ottoman districts immediately surrounding Jerusalem, as large as including part of the Sinai Peninsula, all of the Gaza Strip, Israel, the West Bank, Jordan, Lebanon up to the Litani River, a similar piece of Syria, part of Iraq and a corner of Saudi Arabia, or anything in between, depending on who you spoke to.
“Palestine” has been controlled by many kingdoms and powers, including Ancient Egypt, Ancient Israel and Judah, the Persian Empire, Alexander the Great and his successors, the Hasmoneans, the Roman Empire, several Muslim Caliphates, and the Crusaders.
There was never a sovereign state of Palestine, there has never been a king, prince, duke, president, prime minister either.
There was never a mention in the old testament of Palestine it was only mentioned in the King James Bible (1611), the most influential English translation in history. There was no English word for Peleshet. In the Hebrew Bible there is one word behind the various English renderings Palestine, Palestina, and Philistia. It is Peleshet. The geographical term Peleshet is used eight times in the Hebrew Bible (Exod 15:14; Isa 14:29, 31; Joel 4:4[=3:4 Eng], Pss 60:10[=v.8 Eng], 83:8[7], 87:4, 108:10[9]).
Okay, so Palestine is a shity misspelling of Peleshet. At least they got the first letter correct. Peleshetian People doesn't sound that good. Perhaps the Palestinian People are Pleased with the missPelling :)
What, like geographical people? The argument is political and the scapegoats remain the same.
The only reasons the got the first letter right is because that is what was needed to link. FYI , the name Palestine originates from the Philistine inhabitance of the land of Judea.
After the Romans conquered the region in the second century C.E., the Romans
used the term Palestinia to refer to the region in an attempt to minimize Jewish
attachment to the land. The Arabic use of the term Filastin is from this Latin root.
The issue that is ignored the Israelites "Jewish" have been living in the Middle East far longer than than others who occupy the geographical region and have the right to be there. So, being called the occupiers is the biggest lie trumpeted by the media. The Philistine warrior Goliath killed by David (second King of Israel) was from Crete and not native and occupying Canaan. BTW it was the Philistines who created GAZA and not the Palestinians authority.
Palestinian people? Really. The was never a territory called Palestine. People hate the fact.

Late add. Did Philistine also not begin with a P?
