I realize the real Philistines have dwindled - but they survive!

So did I, but "The Kingdom of David", the newest US-UK four part historical doco provides this info grounded on historical data.
In any case, "philistines" have in common with "palestinians" much less than the Romans with Italians.

I thought it came from Philistine [a few hundred of whom still live there!]

Yeah,
"Palestine" was invented by the Romans. They dispersed the Jews from Jerusalaim and Judea, and re-named Judea into "Palestine".
A problem is not Israel but existing of the non-Arabs in the whole-Arabic region. And inter-faiths tensions between Arabs-Muslims and Arabs-Christians will prevail if imagine Israel and the local Jewry even to evaporate.
