Hey haters.  Tonight is Channukah. This commemorates the defeat of the Syrian Greeks by the Jews.  The liberation of Judea 166-161 BCE.  The dedication of the Temple in Jerusalem.  Part of it is still standing by the way.  In contrast, can anyone please tell me when there was an Arab country here?  Where and what was the name of the capitol?  Name of the currency?  Type of government?  Name of leaders & rulers?  Type of economy?  Is there any historical evidence or archeological evidence of this state? NO!!!  Palestine Is a Roman  word and an Arab state in Israel is like a unicorn.  A myth!
