So, the current favorite evil villain character in my small world states what many think is true, that folks in Palestine are an “invented people” – for example, as reported here: Newt Gingrich: Palestinians are “invented” people – Political Hotsheet – CBS News. He really made a splash with this statement at the Repub debate the other night.
Okay. Two questions:
Why does this matter? and,
If Palestinians are “invented,” aren’t “Americans” also more of a construct than a People.
And, a third question, coming back around: Why would that matter?
Just wonderin’……………………. Newt? anyone?
