Analysis of information sources in references of the Wikipedia article "Palestinian people" in Simple English language version.
"There are a couple of glaring problems with this line of thought. First of all, there is a clear conflation of the Arab(ian)(s), Muslims and Palestinians. None of these are interchangeable. Arabs have had a long history in the Levant before the advent of Islam. For example, Nabataean kingdom ruled over Jordan, Southern Palestina and Sinai a whole millennium before Muslims ever set foot in the area. Another example would be the Ghassanid kingdom, a Christian Arabian (!) kingdom that extended over vast areas of the region. As a matter of fact, many prominent Christian families in Palestina today, such as Maalouf, Haddad and Khoury, can trace their lineage back to the Ghassanid kingdom".
