There is an opinion (of many by experts) that Palestinians’ are descendants of tribal groups from antiquity (even that they have a sprinkling of Nephilim residue) that were enemies of especially Israel! There is certainly well recorded accounts of Israel’s travails with them in the Old Testament, and their many victories, but the Nephilim concept has not been proven!
What is probable is the Tribal mix over time, and as many tribes were descended from Ishmael, they certainly live up to the Bible comment regarding Ishmael (Gen.16:12)!
It is fair to reach a penultimate conclusion, that the aggressive tendencies shown by the Palestinian people has been given prominence by its Leaders, as has been observed and experienced by the surrounding Arab nations in the last 50–100 years!
