The term '''"Palestinian"''' generally refers to self-claimed "Palestinian" [[Arab]]s, who actually originated from other countries in the [[Middle East]], who seek to create a homeland in some or all of "[[Palestine]]" - those advocating the latter view often advocate the destruction of the state of [[Israel]]. Most "Palestinians" reside in [[Gaza]], the [[West Bank]], or [[Jordan]]. The King of Jordan has refused to grant citizenship to Arab refugees from "Palestine", in part due to political pressure from other Islamic countries.

Over 100,000 or at least 150,000 (to some estimates, such as the testimony given in the U.S. Congress in 1939) immigrated during the British Mandate as job seekers due to the prosperity [[Zionist]]s brought to a barren land after several millennia. Immigrants included Arab - [[Egyptian]]s [[Syri]]an, [[Algeria]]n, [[Sudan]]ese, and South Arabians. At least 50,000 or more immigrated from Hauran, Syria alone. Other Muslims from [[Bosnia]] during the and [[fascist]] [[Nazi]] [[Slav]]ic-[[Muslim]]s after [[Worl War II]].
So-called "Palestinians," who, up to the 1960s were referred to as South Syrians prior to the 1920s, later as 'Arabs", or more specifically Palestine Arabs,<ref>after the French removed Emir Faisal, from [[Damascus]] in 1920.</ref> since the late 1960s have adopted this moniker, comprise a mixture of: Syrian Arabs, Saudi Arabs, Sudanese [Afro-]Arabs, Egyptian, [[Turkish]], [[Kurd]]ish, Bosnian, Algerian and others (which explains their surnames - telling of their origin/original land). Yet, this 'mixture' was never cohesive, nor did it ever before consider itself as a "nation."
