First, the name “Palestine” does
NOT occur in the Bible or the Qur’an.
There is NOT now and has NEVER been and
NO so-called Palestinian has ever resided in, and has
NEVER, in any capacity whatsoever
, governed any part of
a sovereign state/country/nation or independent political entity named Palestine.” Palestine” did NOT and does NOT exist! Prior to 1967 some Arab Muslims, as they were then called, lived in the former
British Palestinian mandate, which included the land now known as Israel. The governing body was the British government,
NEVER any so-called
“Palestinian
.” The so-called “Palestinians” wrongly claim that the land of Israel is Palestine. In the 1988 HamAss covenant, see link below, Israel is called Palestine 29 times. Article 15 of the covenant, wrongly identifies Israel as Palestine by saying the ca, 685AD “al-Aqsa mosque,” is “in Palestine.” The al-Aqsa mosque was built on the foundation of Solomon’s ca. 957BC, 1,642 years earlier, temple which is in Jerusalem, in Israel,
NOT Palestine.
HamAss 1988 Covenant Article 15 “Palestine contains Islamic holy sites. In it there is al- Aqsa Mosque which is bound to the great Mosque in Mecca in an inseparable bond as long as heaven and earth speak of Isra` (Mohammed's midnight journey to the seven heavens) and Mi'raj (Mohammed's ascension to the seven heavens from Jerusalem).” The 1988 HamAss covenant has been superseded by the 2015 covenant but Israel is still wrongly called “Palestine” 41 times in the 2015 covenant
