You do realize that under the Ottoman Empire, Palestine was not called Palestine. You do realize that prior to 1947 calling an Arab a Palestinian was a huge insult. I would get you into a fight. The Palestinian title was referred to the Jews!goofy,
Palestine was under Othoman governance, they never claim a state. As Mac Mahon promised the entire land to native citizens after war, mandatory has no right to invite the iSSraelis aliens or any foreigners to this land. it's forbidden by Law.
balfour was a self declaration of half page!!, but McMahon Agreement was a full agreement between two governors.

Palestinian Arabs were certainly not insulted by the term - they used it to refer to themselves since the early 20th century. Of course Moroccans, Iraqis, etc. might have been insulted if you called them Palestinians, much like Puerto Ricans would be insulted if you called them Mexicans.
Actually, the term "Palestinian" originally referred to any resident of Palestine, whether Muslim, Christian, Druze, Samaritan or Jew. It was the Zionists who eventually decided to forego that label, as Zionist ideology holds that all Jews, including the indigenous Arab Jews of Palestine, are an entirely separate people from the rest of the native population.
For Arabs, the term Palestine was unacceptable. For Muslims it was alien and irrelevant... The main objection for them was that it seemed to assert a separate entity which politically conscious Arabs in Palestine and elsewhere denied. For them there was no such thing as a country called Palestine. The region which the British called Palestine was merely a separated part of a larger whole [Syria]. Palestine was not a country and had no frontiers, only administrative boundaries; it was a group of provincial subdivisions, by no means always the same, within a larger entity. For a long time organized and articulate Arab political opinion was virtually unanimous on this point.

You're completely wrong. Arabs pre-Israel resisted being called Palestinians as they did not wish to be associated with Jews, who were known as Palestinians.
Additionally, Arabs viewed Palestine as southern Syria. Arabs in Palestine were Syrian. Palestine to them was a Western invention.
You have less than zero insight into Arab history and the Middle East.
There were no Palestinian institutions other than Jewish Palestinian ones. For instance...
Palestine Post: Today Jerusalem Post
Anglo Palestine Company: Today Bank Leumi
Palestine Orchestra: Today Israel Philharmonic Orchestra

Now, even YOU know.
al Haq said:There are many examples of Palestinians calling themselves "Palestinian" long before 1964, and even before World War I. Here are just a few examples:
1911 - The Palestinian newspaper "Filastin" ("Palestine") began publishing in Palestine in Arabic. It addressed the people of the region as "Filastiniyi" ("Palestinians.")
1921 - the Syrian-Palestinian Congress issued its first demand for national independence for Palestine
1935 - al-Hizb al-'Arabi al-Filastini (the Palestinian Arab Party) was established in Jerusalem.
(By the way, the term "Palestinian" includes all the indigenous Arabic-speaking people of Palestine - whether Muslim, Christian, Druze, Samaritan or Jew.)
First you said Palestinians don't exist. Then you claimed they were merely infiltrators from other Arab countries. Now you say they are actually all Jews!
Arabs calling themselves Palestinians is a recent description, when the PLO was formed in 1964.
Historically, Arabs in the Levant identified not by Palestine but by tribes and clans, by religion, by Ottoman nationalism or by smaller districts, known as sanjaks and qadas.
During Ottoman rule, lasting 400 years, the territory of Palestine was governed by Syria and Lebanon, thus, many Arabs in the area called themselves Syrians and Lebanese.
However, Arabs did not call themselves Palestinians.
It must hurt the brain to be a Zionist.
Considering Jews have won 160 Nobel Prizes for their achievements in science, mathematics, economics and the humanities and Muslims have won merely 3 Nobel Prizes, out of 1.5 BILLION Muslims in the world, I suspect Muslims' brains hurt.
(By the way, the term "Palestinian" includes all the indigenous Arabic-speaking people of Palestine - whether Muslim, Christian, Druze, Samaritan or Jew.)
Only Jews were known as Palestinians. Even today, Arabs mostly call themselves Muslims, not Palestinians.
Professor Bernard Lewis, foremost Middle East historian edifies...
With the rise and spread of pan-Arab ideologies it was as Arabs, not as south Syrians, that the Palestinians began to assert themselves. For the rest of the period of the British Mandate, and for many years after that, their organizations described themselves as Arab and expressed their national identity in Arab rather than in Palestinian or even in Syrian terms.
The emergence of a distinctive Palestinian entity is thus a product of the last decades and may be seen as the joint creation of Israel and the Arab states—the one by extruding the Arabs of Palestine, the others by refusing to accept them. According to pan-Arab or even pan-Syrian ideologies, Palestinian Arabs moving to Lebanon, Syria, or Jordan should still have been men in their own country, moving from one province to another. The bitter experience of the past twenty-seven years has shown that this is not so and, as so often before, deprivation has created a new sense of identity based on shared experience, desperation, and aspiration.
As for your beloved Zio-tool Bernard Lewis - as I've already commented, he has spent the last 50 years denying, denigrating and discrediting the Arab people and Islam. His Orientalist "scholarship" is biased, maliciously inaccurate, and merely a vehicle to advance Zionist propaganda.
You clearly have not read one word written by Bernard Lewis as he sings the praises of Islam and the Arabs as a great religion and a great people. His numerous books on Islam and Arabs are highly admiring of both.
In fact, Lewis has been criticized for being an Islamic apologist, such as his steadfast refusal to concede that the Turks committed genocide against the Armenians. In fact, Lewis was sued by the French government for his refusal to do so in a French newspaper.
Lewis's fluency in 5 languages, including Arabic, Turkish, Farsi, Hebrew and English makes him unequaled in his field.
So, you really know nothing about Bernard Lewis.
A thorough review of his work and career here:
M. Shahid Alam: Bernard Lewis: Scholarship or Sophistry?
Counterpunch is a discredited internet rag with anti-Semitic leanings, so you, too, are discredited.
Here are a few remarks about Bernard Lewis, including from prominent Arabs...
"No one has done more to examine the interactions of the West and the Middle East.Lewis' book will remain a landmark in the study of the modern Middle East."--Foreign Affairs
"The author has mobilized his unrivaled knowledge of both Turkish and Western sources to assess the significance of the Ataturk revolution and provide an essential background for the formation of judgments about contemporary Turkey's problems and prospects."--The Times Literary Supplement
"There is probably no scholar alive today who can equal his breadth of knowledge of the Muslim past...a bok that anyone who is interested in the Middle East will consult with profit"
F.H. Stewart, New Middle East
"Professor Lewis never fails in respect for the culture he has illuminated so brilliantly...this is a book for everyone interested in the contemporary evolution of the Islamic world"
Middle East International
"Lewis brings to this work not only his superb technical competence as a historian and mastery of the requisite Near Eastern and European languages but also an underlying humanism which raises his scholarship above a purely academic level. For this reason this book should be read by anyone who is interested in the Middle East, past and present"---CHOICE
"Lewis has done us all--Muslim and non-Muslim alike--a remarkable service.... The book's great strength, and its claim upon our attention, [is that] it offers a long view in the midst of so much short-term and confusing punditry on television, in the op-ed pages, on campuses and in strategic studies think tanks." --Paul Kennedy, The New York Times Book Review
"When it comes to Islamic studies, Bernard Lewis is the father of us all. With brilliance, integrity, and extraordinary mastery of languages and sources, he has led the way for Jewish and Christian investigators seeking to understand the Muslim world."--National Review
Muslim loss of civilizational leadership and retreat from modernity is at the center of global history over the last five hundred years and remains at this very time a major factor in international conflicts and diplomatic quarrels. What went wrong? Indeed. Muslims often have the feeling that history has somehow betrayed them, and on no comparable issue is the historian's potential contribution more important--the more so because the subject is plagued by ideological commitments, partisan blather, and the constraints of political correctness. People have shunned the topic for all the wrong reasons. All the more reason to be grateful for Bernard Lewis's interventions. No one knows better the languages and motivations of the players, and no one is more reliable in the objectivity of his judgments."--David Landes, Harvard University
"Replete with the exceptional historical insight that one has come to expect from the world's foremost Islamic scholar." --Karen Elliott House, Wall Street Journal
"Lewis's scholarship is prodigious....He avoids dogmatic positions himself and sees dogma as something to be analyzed. It is this sense of nuance, of historical setting, of honesty to texts, that informs the essays in Islam and the West."--The New York Review of Books
"Demonstratebreadth and depth of scholarship and an ability to communicate with both specialists and nonspecialists."--Journal of Ecumenical Studies
"Brilliant...weaves a seamless web between past and present. In collection of remarkable learning and range Mr. Lewis takes us, as he alone among today's historians and interpreters of Islam can, from the early encoutners of Christendom and Islam to today's Islamic dilemmas. To read Mr. Lewis on Europe's obsession with the Ottoman Turks, the raging battle between secularism and fundamentalism in the Muslim world, or the difficulty of studying other peoples' histories is to be taken through a treacherous terrain by the coolest and most reassuring of guides. You are in the hands of the Islamic world's foremost living historian. Of that world's ordeal he writes with the greatest care and authority and no small measure of sympathy."--Fouad Ajami, writing in The Wall Street Journal
"Arguably the West's most distinguished scholar on the Middle East."--Newsweek
"A timely and provocative contribution to the current raging debate about the tensions between the West and the Islamic world.... One wishes leaders in the Islamic world would pay heed to some of Lewis' themes." --Stanley Reed, Business Week
"Lucidly argued and richly supported by telling quotations.... Lewis is a persuasive chronicler of Muslim resistance to change and modernity."--Robert Irwin, Washington Post Book World
"An accessible and excitingly knowledgeable antidote to today's natural sense of befuddlement." --Michael Pakenham, Baltimore Sun
"A compelling book. One of our most distinguished historians throws a floodlight on that cruel divide between the West and the societies of Islam. Learned and urgent at the same time." --Fouad Ajami, The Johns Hopkins University
"Lewis's academic credentials are impeccable... the collection of essays, articles, reviews, lectures and contributions to encyclopaedias gives a glimpse of his towering scholarship.' -- Michael Binyon THE TIMES
"Our greatest authority on the world of Islam has followed his recent series of best-selling books with this gathering of fifty-one essays from the past fifty-one years. And an enjoyable, as well as an enlightening, collection it turns out to be.' -- Hazhir Tiemourian
"As this collection of writings and speeches from the last 40 years demonstrates once again, Lewis is probably the world's most erudite scholar of the Middle East. The pieces cover virtually all aspects of the region--from medieval Turkish history to the roots of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, and everything in between. Food for thought abounds.... Reflects the thinking of a profound mind."--Publishers Weekly
"The press of world events has transformed Bernard Lewis into the most public sort of intellectual, well into the emeritus phase of his scholarly career. His 2002 study, What Went Wrong?, shed much welcome, if controversial, light on the divergent courses of Islamic and Western civilization at a moment when the question could not be more urgent. Now in a new collection of essays, From Babel to Dragomans, Lewis teases out the implications of his earlier argument in a wide range of settings, from traditional Middle Eastern feasts and rituals to the anti-Western propaganda campaigns of al Qaeda."--Chris Lehmann, The Washington Post
"Inestimable...replete with the exceptional historical insight that one has come to expect from the world's foremost Islamic scholar."--The Wall Street Journal
"No scholar of Islam in the Western world has more thoroughly earned the respect of generalists and academics alike than Bernard Lewis."--Baltimore Sun
