Historically the name Palestine covers a large area in the Middle East, which includes the current Israel and parts of Jordan, Syria and Lebanon. In the bible, the area is referred to as Kana’an.

Today, Palestine is the term used for the Palestinian autonomous rule which is involved in a long-term conflict with Israeli settlements.

It is unfortunately almost impossible to talk about Palestine without mentioning its long and bloody conflict with Israel; a conflict that has not only cost thousands of innocent lives, but which has also been given a lot of attention in international politics and media - unfortunately without a long-term solution in sight.

Keynotes about Palestine will typically take its outset in modern Palestine and the history of the Palestinian people in the conflict with Israel and the geopolitical game that is such a big part of the conflict.
