From a Kalanga language perspective, all human groups whether they be tribes or nations, started off as work-groups. Examples of such groups are the English (Ba-Engi); the Chinese (Ba-Tsha-ina); the Greeks (Ba-Yela) etc. As the groups became politicised, some coalescences, mainly of a religious nature occured across groups, resulting in new groups/nations being formed. Such are the Israelites (Ba-isiRa-Illui); the Arabs (Ba-Araba in Coptic/Sotho language); the Scotts (Ba-Sekota in Coptic/Sotho language).
I believe that the Jews and Palestinians were originally one tribe/workgroup, namely Ba-Kosha. Recall that the verb "ku kosha" in Kalanga means to twine strands of fibre (lutshi) to make a rope. The Ba-Kosha (Cushites) made these ropes during the building by the Anunnaki, of Lalibela churches in Ethiopia. The Ba-Kosha were a large group. It is from their name Ba-Kosha, that the Jews today eat food described as Kosher.
Why do I think that Palestinians are Ba-Kosha (Cushites)?. The pattern on the late Palestinian leader (Yasser Arafat's) head scarf is a net. You create a net by "ku kosha". For the many years that I watched PLO leader Yasser Arafat on television, it never occured to me that there could be a symbolism to his head scarf. Then the Pope (not the current one) visited Bethlehem, where Jesus Christ is said to have been born. The Palestinians had laid out the Yasser Arafat head scarf pattern in display. The many scarfs displayed seemed to scream something at me as I watched on TV. I couldn't tell what they were saying. Now that I understand the way human nations/workgroups started, I can clearly "hear" what that scream said - "Ti Ba-Kosha" (We are Cushites).
Isn't it a shame that one nation, one tribe has become so polarised by politics (Israeli and Palestinian), by religion (Jew and Muslim) that it feels like an insult to either group to point out that they are one tribe after all - Ba-Kosha?
