The Jews:
i) Invaded a place called “Palestine”:
Proper name = Israel / Judah.
“Palestine” is the Roman attempted-rename, only twice in history used as a name for the land, but by foreign imperial powers: the Romans, and the British.
There never has been any indigenous “Palestine” sovereign state.
(Why call it “Palestine”?: Because it would not make such effective propaganda to accuse the JEWS of stealing “JUDAH”!)...
Perhaps I'm the victim of Arab falsehood propaganda, but I have the impression that the Jewish scriptures depict the tribes of Israel fighting against the other peoples of Canaan from the very beginning of their entry into the promised land. Indeed, aren't some ancient Palestinians (פלסטינים ,פַּלֶשְׂתִינַאִי) actually referred to in the Bible as the Philistines (פְּלִשְׁתִּים֙)?
And it's not like Hadrian invented the term Palestinian Syria. Already Herodotus referred to this region as the (part of) Syria called Palestine (Συρίη ἡ Παλαιστίνη καλεομένη).
