Why the Arabs want a two state deal

[5.56NATO]

In a video clip translated by Palestinian Media Watch, Al-Ahmad described a PA plan to “agree to a state on territory that is 22 percent, and perhaps less, of the land of historical Palestine”, and then eventually take over the territory it was not granted, which would “return my historical rights to me in full.”

He pointed to historical precedent as a support for the plan: North Vietnam’s bloody 20-year war to capture South Vietnam and unite both states under one name.

“North Vietnam. There was a north and the south. What is its name now? Vietnam!” he declared.

I'm not sure but I do not believe there was ever a palestine in the way he is using the word.
Palestine was an area, like the Sahara, but not a true named place.

palestine was a name given to that area by the romans.

Actually, a people known as the Philistines gave that region the moniker. King David of Israel fought against them as you might recall. This makes the Philistines pretty ancient, as well as being wiped out a few thousand years ago. The people who fancy themselves to be Philistines today are Arabs, mostly Syrian and muslim and are unrelated to the literal Philistines.
