How about we hear what Arabs themselves have said?

Straight from the horse's mouth, "Palestine" is the biggest hoax ever perpetrated in history:

"There is no such thing as Palestine in history, absolutely not".
- Professor Philip Hitti, Arab historian, 1946 -

"There is no such country as Palestine. 'Palestine' is a term the Zionists invented. There is no Palestine in the Bible. Our country was for centuries part of Syria. 'Palestine' is alien to us. It is the Zionists who introduced it".
- Auni Bey Abdul-Hadi, Syrian Arab leader to British Peel Commission, 1937 -

What other Arabs declared after the Six-Day War:

"There are no differences between Jordanians, Palestinians, Syrians and Lebanese. We are all part of one nation. It is only for political reasons that we carefully underline our Palestinian identity... 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".
- Zuhair Muhsin, military commander of the PLO and member of the PLO Executive Council -

“Why is it that on June 4th 1967 I was a Jordanian and overnight I became a Palestinian?”
“We did not particularly mind Jordanian rule. The teaching of the destruction of Israel was a definite part of the curriculum, but we considered ourselves Jordanian until the Jews returned to Jerusalem. Then all of the sudden we were Palestinians - they removed the star from the Jordanian flag and all at once we had a Palestinian flag”.
“When I finally realized the lies and myths I was taught, it is my duty as a righteous person to speak out”.
- Former PLO terrorist.

AN INVENTED FLAG FOR AN INVENTED PEOPLE!

Palestinians are the newest of all the peoples on the face of the Earth, and began to exist in a single day in 1967 by a kind of supernatural phenomenon that is unique in the whole history of mankind. :lmao:

Roudy, do you see the woman pictured in my Avatar? Can you tell where she is from? No? She was from Ramallah, Roudy. Can you tell which side of Ramallah she was from? No? Well, a Palestinian could. THAT is how specific the Palestinian identity is and WAS when that picture was made back in the 1920s.

Now Philip K. Hitti we KNOW about. He was not a very good scholar. The others I want specific citations for. And don't send me to some low grade Zionist website. I want to read those quotes (if they really were said at all) IN CONTEXT.
 
Just to be fair and post what Israelis say.

I'll take Philip Hitti over you and your bullshit-filled ilk:

Philip Khuri Hitti

Philip Khuri Hitti (فيليب خوري حتي in Arabic),(1886 - 1978), a Maronite Christian born in Shimlan, Lebanon, was a scholar of Islam and introduced the field of Arab culture studies to the United States.

Biography

Hitti was educated at an American Presbyterian mission school at Suq al-Gharb and then at the American University of Beirut. After graduating in 1908 he taught at the American University of Beirut before moving to Columbia University where he earned his PhD in 1915 and taught Semitic languages. After World War I he returned to AUB and taught there until 1926. In February 1926 he was offered a Chair at Princeton University which he held until he retired in 1954. He was both Professor of Semitic Literature and Chairman of the Department of Oriental Languages. After formal retirement he accepted a position at Harvard University. He also taught in the summer schools at the University of Utah and George Washington University in Washington, D.C. He subsequently held a research position at the University of Minnesota. Philip Hitti almost single-handedly created the discipline of Arabic Studies in the United States.

In 1944 before a U. S. House committee, Hitti gave testimony in support of the view that there was no historical justification for a Jewish homeland in Palestine. His testimony was reprinted in the Princeton Herald. In response, Albert Einstein and his friend and colleague Erich Kahler jointly replied in the same newspaper with their counter-arguments. Hitti then published a response and Einstein and Kahler concluded the debate in the Princeton Herald with their second response. In 1945 Hitti served as an adviser to the Iraqi delegation at the San Francisco Conference which established the United Nations. In 1946, Hitti was the first Arab-American witness at the Anglo-American Committee of Inquiry on Palestine. Bartley Crum, an American member of the committee, recalled that

Hitti.. explained that there was actually no such entity as Palestine- never had been; it was historically part of Syria, and "the Sunday schools have done a great deal of harm to us because by smearing the walls of classrooms with maps of Palestine, they associate it with the Jews in the minds of the average American and Englishman"
