Your guess is as good as mine. I didn't until this thread realize there might actually be a "there was no Palestine" movement of sorts. I supposed in the sense of both amounting to a general sort of crazy denial of reality, yes, the two are similar.Is this like the current argument in some circles that there was no holocaust?All the more reason why the existence of a "there was no Palestine" movement is utterly preposterous.The more important thing is, the Palestinians sure think they exist and that their land existed.OMG! I saw someone post a thread claiming "there was no Palestine." I thought that was a strange thing to say, so I just figured the OP-er is a nitwit; there are so many here that one more didn't seem unlikely. I had no idea that there is a "there was no Palestine" movement happening.pretty awkward for the moronic "there was no Palestine crew."
How many history texts must one truly not read or be aware of to think that there was no Palestine?
I realize one may not read or happen across all of those writers works that mention Palestine, but one should have come by at least one of them, most probably Ovid's Metamorphoses or Poem while reading the Norton Anthology of World Literature. What the hell do high school seniors study these days? (I know what I read back then, and I know what my kids read. I have no idea what most kids study/read in senior English classes.)
- Ovid
- Pliny
- Plutarch
- Josephus
- Aristotle
- Herodotus
- King James Bible (admittedly one would need to be familiar with the translations, rather than merely the book itself, to know of this one)
You just oversimplify.
