And let's seperate Zionism from Judaism. It is the Zionists who hide behind Judaism to quell every hint of critics and label it as anti semitism, I read somewhere. The zionist cabal is the government of the USA, and none else. The New World Order is in the make.

Gezer.

Gaza.

Ashkelon.

Ekron.

Ashdod.

They were all subject to the Egyptians at some point, but they were all independent at some point as well.

Additionally, contemporary with Israel and Judah was the Philistine Pentapolis- five loosely allied Philistine city-states- Gaza, Ashkelon, Gath, Ekron, and Ashdod.

And, yes, even before the Roman takeover, the area was called Palestina by the Greeks.
