Yes, countries are created by people. However, our discussion was about nations. Perhaps you could afford to familiarize yourself with the definition of the term "nation": Broadly speaking a nation may refer to a community of people who share a common territory and government; and who often share a common language, race, descent, and/or history. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nations I am thankful for the frequent opportunities you provide me with to educate you.

On existence of Palestine, and Babylone: 1. Babylonian Talmud (200 years before the Palestinian Talmud ). 2. Palestinian Talmud (written in Palestinian Aramaic --- Jesus spoke Aramaic). Disputing the existence of Palestine is disputing the existence of the Palestinian Talmud, and of the Palestinian Aramaic.
Nooooooooooooooo Richter, before the British/ French colonization, and according to that 3770HOMO monkey, there was no people in Morocco, Tunisia, Algeria, Libya, Lebanon, Syria Bahrain, Qatar, Kuwait, Jordan, Saudi Arabia, UAE, Somalia, Mauritania and many other countries. You know how I know that? These countries' names were invented after the British/ French colonizers dissected the land into "Countries" and gave it names. Before giving it names, it was a vast plot of waste land with no people in it waiting for whatever colonizer to come and occupy it. Wake up and smell the coffee Richter!
To the tune of "It Ain't Necessarily So": "Jesus was never a Jew. Forget what you've heard, it's not true. The babe in the manger was no Hebrew stranger. Jesus was never a Jew."
============= Good points, including P--T travelor. Also Gaza has relatives of Goliath of Gath. The Goliath of Gath was an uncircumcised Philistine terrorist; who terrorized Israel , till David slew him like a lion & bear, in the name of the Lord of Hosts[Angel armies].1st Samuel 17 Palestine was a some what insulting Roman [hi tax gov] name ; like calling a mexican a wetback. Not that all hispanics pick produce-God bless all them that do.LOL I pick produce in my garden so ''wetback''not really an insult with me.
====================== Mr A, hey; Well maybe manger & stranger does rhyme. Hey Mr A. But Jesus is a Jew, remember its true. Also Jesus is closely related to King David, King Solomon, also kings of the Jews. Not all Jews love each other ; but Jesus said talking about himself [in new testament/covenant],said ''behold a greater than Solomon is here''
