Who are the modern descendants of the Philistines?
The Philistines were a sea people who arrived in the Levant around 1250 BCE and settled in the fertile coastal plains and foothills from the Egyptian border north to present-day Tel Aviv. Over time, they absorbed a wave of Nabatean immigrants and were then culturally absorbed by their Canaanite neighbours to the north. After the Alexandrian conquests, they absorbed the Greek language and culture, as did their neighbours, other than the Jews. Because of this, by New Testament times we find them sometimes see them referred to by the Jews as "Greeks", sometimes as gentiles. The former Philistines were pagans in the Roman Empire, but with the arrival of Christianity, became Christians. The Arabs overran Palestine in the seventh century CE, after which most became Muslims but a significant number remained Christians even to this day. Modern Palestinians are considered to be descended from various races in the region, including Philistines, Canaanites, Greeks, Romans, Nabataeans, Peninsular Arabs and others.

What does the Bible say about fighting for your country?
Answer 1In the Old testament God said "Eye for eye, and tooth for tooth" means you can fight against your enemy to protect your country, but in the new testament it doesn't say that so its really confusing should you follow the new testament but not the old testament? Bible is the true word of God follow the word.Answer 2The Bible says nothing on the subject of patriotism and that is because such a concept, loyalty to a nation-state's fundamental rasion d'être, did not exist in the Biblical Period. In the Old Testament, the Israelite are commanded to take the land and hold onto it against foreign aggression, but in those days, if you lost your land your were liable to be slaughtered, so it was self-preservation. Modern patriotism and fighting for your country is a question of prestige and personal choice. This is beyond the scope of the Bible.Most Christian theologians do not hold that the "Turn the other cheek" passage refers to international conflict and defense of your life and freedom are endorsed by the current churches.
