There was no such thing as Palestinians information
Statement by Israeli Prime Minister Golda Meir
"There was no such thing as Palestinians" is part of a widely repeated statement by Golda Meir, the then Israeli Prime Minister, in her second month in office, made in an interview with Frank Giles, then deputy editor of The Sunday Times on June 15, 1969, to mark the second anniversary of the Six-Day War.
It is considered to be the most famous example of Israeli denial of a distinct Palestinian identity.[1]

The denial of a separate and distinct Palestinian identity was most famously expressed in 1969 by then Israeli Prime Minister Golda Meir when she stated: "There was no such thing as Palestinians. When was there an independent Palestinian people with a Palestinian state? ... It was not as though there was a Palestinian people and we came and threw them out and took their country from them. They did not exist."
