I didn't state that all the inhabitants were Bedouins, I only gave Bedouins as an example of living in the desert.

And where do you see here "the myth of Israely propaganda"? You admit yerself that the Palestine was a desert with very bad living conditions and they changed only after the Jews cultivated this land. No myth.

"Why don't you fuck-off to your

This is a one-sided picture because you forgot to mention what a large part of Arabs thought.
