Palestine : "Invented" people and "Terrorists".

So says Newt Gingrich :

                         

"Remember there was no Palestine as a state.

It was part of the Ottoman empire,"....

"I think that we've had an invented Palestinian people who are in fact Arabs

and who were historically part of the Arab community.

And they had a chance to go many places, and for a variety of political reasons

we have sustained this war against Israel now since the 1940s, and it's tragic,"

"Is what I said factually true? Yes,"

"Somebody ought to have the courage to tell the truth.

These people are terrorists "
