The "Palestinian people" are in large part descendants of Jews and other people who lived in the Kingdom of Israel, Judea, Samaria, Galilee, and Philistia. As you would expect, after the Roman destruction of the Temple, some Jews left, some stayed. Some converted to Christianity, then some later to Islam. Who did the Palestinian Christians descend from? The first Christians - who were Jews and other people converted by Jesus and the Twelve Apostles.

Is someone longer ethnically a Jew if they convert to Christianity? Their DNA does not change, they are still indigenous to the land.

The DNA studies can't lie - the Palestinians are indigenous to the territory.
