The Romans. Trajan sacked Jerusalem after a 5 month of siege to put out the Great Jewish Revolt (70CE). That's when the Second Temple was destroyed. Trajan's column shows Roman soldiers carting off a giant menorah in commemoration.
Palestine is from the Latin for Philistia, the lands of another ancient Canaanite tribe.
Shit's old all around.
