With the discovery that Philistines were Greeks, Palestinians are suddenly Canaanites

David Rosenthal:
In 1844, when the Ottoman Empire still controlled the Holy Land, a census was conducted, which revealed that Jews constituted a majority of the population of Jerusalem. Where were the "Palestinians"? Where were the Canaanites?

The census count reported the presence of three groups in the city: Jews, Muslims, and Christians. Canaanites were apparently not present. But suddenly, inexplicably, all Palestinians were spontaneously transformed into Canaanites in 2019, just as quickly as all Jordanian and Egyptian Arabs in Israel were spontaneously transformed into Palestinians in 1967.

It took nothing more than the word of Yasser Arafat to create Palestinians out of thin air in 1967. And it took nothing more than the word of Mahmoud Abbas to turn them all into Canaanites in 2019. Who knew that the expressions of Arab leaders could be so magical?

So now that there are no more Palestinians, since they have all been magically transformed by Mahmoud Abbas's whimsical incantation into Canaanites, what is to be done about Palestinian territories? Is the name to be changed now to Canaanite territories? Or must the Canaanites tolerate living in a territory once ruled by Palestinians, who suddenly ceased to exist?

What will the OIC (Organization of Islamic Cooperation) have to say? Will it go along with the sudden adoption of Canaanite identity by the onetime Palestinians? Surely, the OIC nations will continue to support unconditionally their traditional allies in the war to eliminate Jews that Mohammed prophesied would culminate in the last days. Or will they?
...
The reality is they are Jordanian and Egyptian Arabs who moved into the area in an attempt to thwart the creation of the Jewish homeland.  They could be the remnants of a Muslim colonial effort in the area, but the reality is they are Arabs.  Will they all submit,it to a DNA exam?

Should Republicans go ahead and add Supreme Court Justices to head off Democrats

Washington Post: Some Democrats eye adding more justices to the Supreme Court to change its ideological bent The once-remote idea has gained the attention of liberals angered by the GOP push to remake the federal courts. Probably the easy way to defeat this court-packing scheme is for Trump to propose doing the same thing now.  It would lead to Democrat denunciations and claims that it would be wrong, thereby blowing up any attempt by them in the unfortunate event of Democrats winning a presidential election.

29 % of companies say they are unlikely to keep insurance after Obamacare

Conn Carroll: A new survey of 368 midsize to large companies found that 29% of them are considering terminating their active employee health care plans when Obamacare is full implemented in 2014. Only 71% of employers surveyed said they did not expect to drop their health coverage, while 20% said they did not know and 9% said they were planning to exit. The latest survey, conducted by Towers Watson, echoes an ealier survey by McKinsey & Co. finding that 30% of private-sector employers were planning to drop their employee health insurance coverage by 2014. When the Congressional Budget Office crunched Obamacare's spending numbers, they estimated that only 7% of employees currently covered by employer-sponsored plans would lose their plans. ... This means the cost of the health care fiasco will be hundreds of billions more than estimated by the CBO and Congressional Democrat. It is also clear that Obama's pledge that you could keep your health care plan if you wanted t
