` :::::::::::That's the root of the entire discussion, and once again, Gwen, you are mistaken. If you're an Arab, or pro-Arab, you would indeed use ``Palestine``, if you're an Israeli or pro-Israeli, you would use ``Eretẓ Yisra'el`` (the land of Israel). Both are anachronisms, while ``Eretz Yisra'el`` pre-dates ``Palestine``. True, it was used for years by Western authors, but is it accurate? no. should it be accepted, when it's obviously a historical mistake? no. If you insist on using anachronisms, it would at least we more fair to write ``the Land of Israel/Palestine``. (  )`
