Quote of the Day

There is no such thing as a Palestinian nation. There is no Palestinian history, there was never a Palestinian king. The White House needs to hear the truth... The Palestinian nation was made up less than 100 years ago..My grandfather, who was 13th generation Jerusalemite, is the true Palestinian. My grandmother who was born in Metula over 100 years ago is Palestinian....there are 5 rules that categorize a nation - history, culture, language, coinage and historical leadership. Who was the first Palestinian king? What language did the Palestinians speak? Was there ever a Palestinian coin? is there any Palestinian history or culture? There isn't. There are Arabs in the Middle East who came around the same time as the Jewish aliyah and the early says of Zionism. After 2000 years of exile the Jewish nation has returned home, and there are Arabs around us that dont like that, so they created a fictitious nation and claim fictitious rights in the Land of Israel just to oppose the Zionist movement..

  -- Minister Betzalel Smotritch, at a conference in Paris

I am curious if he spoke in Paris in English, Hebrew or French....
