    Palestine was not “Palestine” when the Jews lived there. It was when Jews were thrown out and ethnically clensed that the name was changed. Also there were plenty of Palestinian Jews under British mandate Palestine. Let’s not forget the attacks on Jews who’ve been living there since the 1800’s. Learn history.
