Original Note:
There was never a country called "Palestine." There was the UK Mandate of Palestine briefly. At that time, most Arabs were offended by the name "Palestinian" and it was primarily associated with Jews in the region. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_the_State_of_Palestine https://www.loc.gov/rr/amed/pdf/palestine1/Arabs-of-Palestine-British-Survey.pdf
