BBC documentary on the well-known Jewish Bar Kokhba Revolt against the occupying Roman Empire, about 2,000 years ago, in Judea, a name signifying “land of the Jews.” Where were “palestinians“? Hiding? No, no such people existed. It was the Bar Kokhba Revolt that resulted in the Emperor Hadrian’s renaming Judea as “palaestina“ in retribution for the revolt, intended to erase the ancient Jewish heritage of the country. Palaestina referred to Jews’ ancient Philistine foes who were raiders from the Greek world. Later, palaestina was anglicized into the name “palestine” by Europeans.
Judea is a combination word for Judah and Edumea.
Palestine is not from the word Philistine .. The Greeks called the region Syria-Palestine from 500 BC.
Palestine does come from the Philistine invaders. It means Invaders. The Greeks called the area after the Philistines.
The Romans renamed Judea into Syria Palestine to humiliate the Jews who had revolted against them many times, and to make them forget their nation.

Judea is the Greek form of the word Judah, one of the Tribes of Israel.
And.....Arabic, does not have the letter P like all the other three do.

You can come up with as many revisionist sources, articles and books as you like.
They are, and always will be revisionist with the intent of obliterating Jewish History.
No Thanks !!!!!
And again, this garbage only started being said AFTER Israel came to be in 1948.
Do the math.
Shakespeare and Chaucer both wrote about Palestine. Your education is poor and defensive..
You have mentioned that many times.
Shakespeare and Chaucer wrote about Palestine after the Romans changed Judea to Syria Palestine, incorporating Syria.
Calling a place Palestine, is not the same as calling any of the people living there Palestinian at the time.
One cannot find ONE history book, Greeks, Romans, Assyrians, Byzantine, or even the Kurd or Arab Muslims, refer to ANY people living on the land they invaded as Palestinians.
The Palestinian nationality was born in Moscow in 1963 when Arafat conjured it with the KGB, as another weapon to destroy Israel.
They are Palestinians since then, but never before that. Not even during the Mandate the Arabs cared to be called Palestinians, they wanted to be part of Greater Syria and be called Syrians.
