There is no such place called "Palestine", how can a woman be born in an area that doesn't exist? This area was not part of any nation when Ashrawi was born there, it was a disputed territory do to the Arab indifferences with Jews and Israelis.

I have edited it to the 'British Mandate of Palestine' - Jonny May.

the term palestine predates current politics. consider it a geographic location and move on. --User:Yung Wei^綪永徽 22:40, 11 April 2006 (UTC)

There is indeed a place called Palestine...I lived there for a year and a half. Just because it is not a "sovereign nation-state" in the modern sense, does not mean it is not a place. Before 1948, there was no question what that area was called, give me a break.
