So Abbas told a few porkies, David does the same with "Jordan is Palestine" notwithstanding some of the following evidence:

The people shall hear, and be afraid: sorrow shall take hold on the inhabitants of Palestina. -- Exodus 15:14

Rejoice not thou, whole Palestina, because the rod of him that smote thee is broken : for out of the serpent's root shall come forth a cockatrice, and his fruit shall be a fiery flying serpent. -- Isaiah 14:29

Howl , O gate; cry , O city; thou, whole Palestina, art dissolved : for there shall come from the north a smoke, and none shall be alone in his appointed times. -- Isaiah 14:31

Specific references to "Palestine" date back nearly five hundred years before "the time of Jesus." In the 5th Century BCE, Herodotus, the first historian in Western civilization, referenced "Palestine" numerous times in chronicle of the ancient world, The Histories, including the following passage describing "Syrians of Palestine":

"...they live in the coastal parts of Syria; and that region of Syria and all that lies between it and Egypt is called Palestine." (VII.89) The above translation by Harry Carter is featured in the 1958 Heritage Press edition of Herodotus' famous work. Both older and newer versions corroborate the accuracy of the reference. A. D. Godley's 1920 translation of the crucial line states, "This part of Syria as far as Egypt is all called Palestine", while Robin Waterfield's 1998 updated Oxford translationrenders the passage this way: "This part of Syria, all the way to the border with Egypt, is known as Palestine."

So David, can you explain thie difference between yourself and Abbas?

nicknamenick & Geoff of Perth, sorry but almost all leftists defer to communist propaganda.

BTW:

The PLO Coveneant explicitly states:
"Palestine, with the boundaries it had during the British Mandate, is an indivisible territorial unit."
Those boundaries included what is today called Jordan

Even Yasser Arafat admitted:
"Jordan and Palestine until 1945 were one State, actually. After the Second World War Churchill himself said:"This is Transjordan and this is Palestine".Before that [Jordan] was an emirate..completely part of Palestine"
The New York Review of Books - 25 June 1987

Arafat's Deputy Abu Iyad was game enough to acknowledge:
"You cannot make distinctions between between a Jordanian and a Palestinian...All those who tried in the past and are still trying to create divisions between the Jordanian and Palestinian people have failed. We indeed constitute one people."
Kuwaiti News Agency - 15 December 1989

Marwan al Hamoud member of the Jordanian National Consultative Council and former Minister of Agriculture summed up the position succinctly:
"Jordan is not just another Arab state with regard to Palestine but rather Jordan is Palestine and Palestine is Jordan in terms of territory,national identity,sufferings,hopes and aspirations,both day and night."
Al Rai - Amman - 24 September 1980

As usual you have no credibility

Sorry Geoff - the porky man is certainly you.

More porkies then David, all your previous evidence is revisionist rubbish as any good scholar would attest!

A hundred years later, in the mid-4th Century BCE, Aristotle made reference to the Dead Sea in his Meteorology. "Again if, as is fabled, there is a lake in Palestine, such that if you bind a man or beast and throw it in it floats and does not sink, this would bear out what we have said," he wrote. "They say that this lake is so bitter and salt that no fish live in it and that if you soak clothes in it and shake them it cleans them." (II.3)

Two hundred years later, in the mid-2nd Century BCE, ancient geographer Polemon wrote of a place "not far from Arabia in the part of Syria called Palestine," while Greek travel writer Pausanias wrote in his Description of Greece, "In front of the sanctuary grow palm-trees, the fruit of which, though not wholly edible like the dates of Palestine, yet are riper than those of Ionia." (9.19.8)

The noted Alexandrian Jewish philosopher Philo, writing around the 1stCentury CE, opined, "Also Syria in Palestine, which is occupied by no small part of the very populous nation of the Jews, is not unproductive of honourable virtue." (XII.75)

Would you like some more? Clearly David the historical "facts" do you no service, perhaps you should become an author and see how far you can get with your own version of real history, not far me would surmise!

#Geoff - Part 1

Dismissing statements by Arafat, Iyad, Hamoud and the PLO Covenant that Jordan is part of Palestine as "revisionist rubbish" without substantiating your allegation is a waste of time.
