If a people have a long occupation of land and good title to it either as an independent nation or under colonialism, then they have a case for creating their own state. the ancestors of modern Palestinians have occupied the Levantine territory for at least two thousand years and some of it for around four to five thousand years. Although the last two thousand years have been under colonial rule, they seem to hve as good a claim to statehood as any other people.

What is the land that GOD had intended for Israel?
The land of Canaan, now known as Israel/Palestine, according to the Bible. The Bible nowhere uses the name "Palestine" (and should not be used on any Bible map). "Provincia Syria Palestina" was coined by the Roman Emperor Hadrian (in AD135) as a derogatory term against the Israelites, renaming their homeland after Israel's ancient nemeses the Philistines. To call any part of Israel "Palestine" is to imply that the land belongs to the Philistines who no longer exist.
Did Palestinians exist in 1967 even though there was no independent Palestine?
The UNRWA conventions in 1951 already recognized Arabs from Palestine as distinct group, so they were recognized as people even though no territorial claims of any Palestinian country were recognized at the time.
Why do Settler Jews give native Palestinian Jews a bad name?
I am assuming you're using "Settler Jew" as the term for a person from Israel who moved to Palestine. Going from there...1. In the 5700+ years of recorded Jewish history, a nation called Palestine has only existed for a few years. "Palestine" was the name for much of the region we call "the Middle East" today. To a citizen of Israel who knows their history, a nation named Palestine is an abomination and should not exist.2. A "Palestinian Jew," therefore, cannot exist either.Answer BI doubt that the recorded history of Jews comes back to 5700+ years as above. The prophet of the Jews is Moses and he was born in Egypt. His birth in Egypt was less than 3000 years ago. Jews left Egypt to Palestine in the time of Prophet David well after this time. The saying that Palestine is called on the currently called Middle East is historically not true and is just politically claimed as such to diffuse the Palestinian rights in their lands or at least part of it.
