It's just the "empty land" myth that all genocidal colonizers have used as a pretext updated for modern times.
I have no idea how any of them can call it an empty land when there have been people continuously living there since the goddamn stone age! I mean Lebanon has had extensive trade with Greece and Egypt even during the Bronze age. What the FUCK are these people even talking about? Even Palestine is much older than that.
There was a site called Masada 2000 that had some of the most brazen bullshit hasbara you've ever heard to the extent that they claimed that there was no such thing as a Palestinian before 1967 (as bullshitted by Golda Meir, the bitch) or that the word Palestine did not exist until 1917. They cite no sources because it is such a brazen lie.
