History of Palestinian nationality

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Article contains a large amount of original research on a non-existent, fabricated identity, namely the so-called "Palestinians". If anything, it should be merged with the article about Jordanians (see point 2)

Facts:

1. Palestine the name given a British-controlled territory after WW1, which never existed as an independent state. Most of this "Palestine" is called Jordan today.

2. Only 700,000 people were living in the Mandate of Palestine, with most of the Arabs living East of the River Jordan, in the modern day country of Jordan.

3. Under Muslim rule the region had been reduced to a barren wasteland. Most of it was uninhabited, and they did not call themselves "Palestinians," but thought of themselves as "Arabs" Jews were the only people that produced anything for the region, and built the cities into what it was today causing resentment from the masses of illiterate and poverty-ridden Arabs. Jews never held any political power until 1948. JewishLeftist (talk) 08:02, 29 May 2011 (UTC)
