I've been wondering, what's the difference between the Arabs and the
Palestinians? I've heard that the Arabs are descended from Ishamael
(Abraham's firstborn) and that the Palestinians are descended from (Esau,
the twin brother of Jacob, Isaac's children (Ishmael's nephews).

Could someone shed some light on the subject because in most of my reading,
the terms are used interchangeably, but there must be a fundamental
difference.

Thanks.

Well...the last time I stacked two piles of shit next to each other, I could
not tell the difference. I think the same holds here.

The are no "palestinians". They are Arabs. Simple as that.
The concept of "palestine" is a misleading sham.

Yeah, cuz I saw through some research that "Palestine" is just a language
evolvement of "Philistia" the land of the Philistines who used to be
Israel's worst enemy... But, they've been an extinct people for quite a
while now, the land was just named after them by Rome as a slap in the face
to the Jews during the second diaspora. Is that also true?

Palestinians are all Arabs. Most of them came from Jordan, Egypt, Syria
