There is no such thing as a Palestinian people

 https://www.jpost.com/israel-news/article-734835

Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich dismissed the existence of a Palestinian people in a speech he delivered in Paris on Sunday.

“There is no such thing as Palestinians because there is no such thing as a Palestinian people,” said Smotrich who heads the Religious Zionist Party.

“Who are the [real] Palestinians? I am Palestinian,” he said.

  1. Bravo. Deuteronomy 32:19-25 “19And the LORD saw, and spurned, Because of the provoking of His sons and His daughters. 20And He said: ‘I will hide My face from them, I will see what their end shall be; For they are a very froward generation, Children in whom is no faithfulness. 21They have roused Me to jealousy with a no-god; They have provoked Me with their vanities; And I will rouse them to jealousy with a no-people; I will provoke them with a vile nation. 22For a fire is kindled in My nostril, And burneth unto the depths of the nether-world, And devoureth the earth with her produce, And setteth ablaze the foundations of the mountains. 23I will heap evils upon them; I will spend Mine arrows upon them; 24The wasting of hunger, and the devouring of the fiery bolt, And bitter destruction; And the teeth of beasts will I send upon them, With the venom of crawling things of the dust. 25Without shall the sword bereave, And in the chambers terror; Slaying both young man and virgin, The suckling with the man of gray hairs.”

    Hertz Chumash p. 899: 21. vanities. lit. ‘breaths’ – something insubstantial, vaporous, unreal: hence false gods. no-people, Measure for measure. Just as they had angered God by adopting a no-god, so would God anger them by bringing against them a no-people; i.e. a hoard of barbarians. a vile nation. Or, ‘foolish nation (RV). Ignorant and, hence, barbarous and in human in its habits and methods (Ibn Ezra). And this people will win success over Israel !
