[pictured: Ronald Reagan wearing a black suit and tie with a white shirt. His body is nearly turned sideways, chin lifted and grinning at the camera, resting his weight on his right elbow with his left hand clasped loosely over his resting right wrist. Italicized text upon this propaganda poster reads: “RONALD REAGAN speaks out against SOCIALIZED MEDICINE”]

          You’ll find it was called Judea/Judah.

          Fun Fact: Palestine is derived from Philisitine. Longest turf beef ever.

          (Btw, one of Israel’s propaganda points is that Palestine has never been a sovereign state therefore they don’t deserve to be one now, I think this handily demonstrates one of the reasons why that’s a bunch of bullshit)

      There was always plans to move Jews, or for the Jews to regain their land. Imagine if there was another 6 million trying to inhabit that land.
