A)The latest edit on "History of Pal in Los Angeles should be read" . B) Pal-Arab national identity during the Mandate was indeed convoluted while having a "Pal" component . Contrary to uncritical takes the term was used as an endonym by Pal Arabs at the time , sometimes even before the Mandate . Documents such as newspapers, and others quoted by Porath , Muslih , Foster substantiate the case for continuity in national terminology as to include "Pal Jews" , as stated on the March 28th edit .Tag: Visual edit

As argued in the 14th February edit , and RCP by Rusakii : "Syro-Palestinian" replaced with "Palestinian" . Compared to the Judean / Jewish Jesus : it's more plausible to consider him a pre-modern Palestinian , since there was a province called "Palestine" in his lifetime. Excluding him because he wasn't an Arab-Muslim like Shams al-Din Maqdisi , is more of a political POV than historical fact . "Arab" is not "Arabian" , and non-national "Palestinians" were long before the 7th century .Tags: RevertedVisual edit

Removed implicit Political POV lines that belittle a national endonym through conflation with geopolitical/legal definitions . The vast majority of so-called "Palestinian Jews" identified themselves nationally as "Israeli" (as shown in Hebrew press during the Mandate ) , including the native-born Sephardi Jews after 1929 . "Palestinian" outside academia post-1948 clearly only refers to an Arabic speaking nation , not mere residents holding papers from a colonial government .Tags: RevertedVisual edit
