This is the official flag of Israel. Israel was created as a Jewish state in 1948. At the time, few Arabs were living in the area. Today's "Palestinians" are descendents of the Arabs that lived in the British Mandate of Palestine, along with many Jews and Christians.

 Middle East Facts

This is the "Palestinian flag". Palestine is not a country and never was a country - see the history for yourself. Palestine belonged to the British Mandate after the fall of the Ottoman Empire. The British never gave the Arabs authority over the land of Palestine and therefore Arabs cannot claim that the West Bank and Gaza Strip belong to them.

 

"The existence of a separate Palestinian identity is there only for tactical reasons.  The establishment of a Palestinian state is a new expedient to continue the fight against Zionism and for Arab unity" - Zoheir Muhsin, head of the PLO Military Operations Department and member of the PLO Executive Council (1977)

 

"On no accounts will the Palestinians accept part of Palestine and call it a Palestinian state, while forfeiting the remaining areas which are called the State of Israel." - Rafiq Najshah, PLO representative in Saudi Arabia (June 9, 1980)

 

"The Struggle with the Zionist enemy is not a struggle about Israel's borders, but about Israel's existence.  We will never agree to anything less than the return of all our land and the establishment of the independent state." - Bassam Abu Sharif, PLO spokesman (May 31, 1986)

 

"For not only one has risen against us to annihilate us, but in every generation they rise against us to annihilate us.  But the Holy One, Blessed is He, rescues us from their hand" - Passover Haggadah (Ve'hi She'amda)
