text: Wrong again. Millennia of migrations, religious back-sliding, and feckless military conflicts make contemporary Palestiniansr related to ancient Philistines as much as todays Roman Catholics are to ancient Romans.
  
  Even if they were, this would still not justify Palestinian and Arab hegemony: my "ancestral homeland" years ago may well be Canaan, Peru or Timbuctu, but that does not give me the right to displace or dominate those who lived there for centuries and have liberated their historic homeland from their Muslim adversaries and conquerors.
