You seem to like catchy headlines without reading content. I'm a Linguist with a Major in Anthropology that studies ancient people- not just the Levant, but also the Caucaus and Central Asia.
I will type slowly for you. Lebanese are descended, mostly, from the Phonecians- a northern Canaanite tribe. Jews are from a southern Canaanite tribe. Some Palestinians-not sampled much in your report- are descended from Jewish and Samaritans. By 2000 years ago, there were no other tribes in the Levant. So any claim of indigenous Palestinians is because those Palestinians were previously Jews or Samartians.
But it depends on what group/family/tribe you are talking about when it comes to Palestinians. Because there is considerable admixture with people from all over the Middle East who moved to Palestine in the Ottoman era and British Mandate. British reports at the time discuss waves of 50,000 Arabs moving over the border to settle. The surnames of a great many Palestinians show their origins elsewhere- these are not made up names like Jews were forced to adopt in Europe- but rather family and tribal affiliation linking back to Egypt, Iraq etc. Plus, there was waves of Circassians, waves of Kurds, waves of Armenians as well as Europeans from the Balkans. Palestinians, just like Jews, come in all shades and colours. There are black Afro-Palestinians in Gaza, red haired and blue eyed Palestinians in the West Bank. Those who were descended from Jews and Samaritans married people who were not and over many years it is useless now to try and draw a line and declare an individual some "pure blood" which is the shit you are trying to pull. Palestinians have admixture, Jews have admixture. You seem to want to espouse some mid 1800s race theory out of Germany. It is morally repugnant.
Even Wikipedia could have helped you out lol
"The Philistines were later occupied by the Egyptians in 609 BC, under Necho II.[37] In 604/603 BC, following a Philistine revolt, Nebuchadnezzar II, the king of Babylon, took over and destroyed Askhelon, Gaza, Aphek, and Ekron, which is proven by archaeological evidence and contemporary sources.[4][38] Some Philistine kings requested help from the Egyptians but they were ultimately ignored.[38] Following the destruction of the Philistine cities, their inhabitants were either killed or were exiled to Mesopotamia.[4][3] Those exiled continued identifying themselves as the "men of Gaza" or Ashkelon for roughly 150 years, until they finally lost their distinct ethnic identity.[4]
Babylonian ration lists dating back to the early 6th century BCE, which mention the offspring of Aga, the ultimate ruler of Ashkelon, provide clues to the eventual fate of the Philistines. This evidence is further illuminated by documents from the latter half of the 5th century BCE found in the Murasu archives at Nippur. These records, which link individuals to cities like Gaza and Ashkelon, highlight a continued sense of ethnic identity among the Philistines who were exiled in Babylonia. These instances represent the last known mentions of the Philistines, marking the end of their presence in historical accounts"
