It's a very common claim. Some go further an posit that the Palestinians
are in fact Jordanians and Syrians, whom Jordan and Syria, as well as
other Arab countries refused to take back in, calling them
"Palestinians", fabricating historical ties to the land, and using them
to "embarrass Israel" and excuse to be hostile it.
It follows logically from the Zionist argument that Palestine was "a
land without a people for a people without a land". And has even less
justification historically than most other Zionist claims.
