  27. The Ottoman empire (1516-1917) did not have anything by the name of Palestine, nor did the Mamluk empire (1250-1516) before the Ottoman, nor did the Crusaders (199-1250) before the Mukluks. Britain reimposed that exonym, it was rejected by Arabs: "There is no such country as Palestine. Palestine is a Zionist invention"... 1937 Awni Bey Abdul Hadi "There is no such thing as 'Palestine' in history, absolutely not.”...Prof. Philip K. Hitti, distinguished Arab historian, author of the authoritative book "The Arabs", testifying at the 1946 Anglo-American Committee of Inquiry. "Such a creature as Palestine does not exist at all...." Ahmad Shukeiri 1956 "The Palestinian people does not exist … there is no difference between Jordanians, Palestinians, Syrians, and Lebanese. Between Jordanians, Palestinians, Syrians and Lebanese there are no differences. We are all part of one people, the Arab nation [...] Just for political reasons we carefully underwrite our Palestinian identity. Because it is of national interest for the Arabs to advocate the existence of Palestinians to balance Zionism. Yes, the existence of a separate Palestinian identity exists only for tactical reasons[...] Once we have acquired all our rights in all of Palestine, we must not delay for a moment the reunification of Jordan and Palestine". - Zuheir Mohsen (1977) “A state named ‘Palestine’ has never existed.”...Hafez al-Assad, Syrian President, at a conference in Amman in 1987 "Brothers, half the Palestinians are Egyptians, the other half are Arabs...." Palestinian Minister Fathi Hammad - In a speech broadcast on Egyptian Al-Helma TV on 23 March 2012 "Jordanians and Palestinians are one people living in two states" .... "Mahmoud Abbas" - 20 Oct 2016

  29. Here is something else people can ponder.... From the camel's mouth before these Arab leaders understood that flapping their lips might come to bite them in the behind in future....
