Re: Phoenician roots of Maltese Language

PHOENICIAN LAND OF CEDARS
Phoenicia has existed since 12th century B.C, originating from the east coast of the Mediterranean sea.
Phoenicia was the name of the country and people living and trading off the coast of Lebanon.
Their active trading dominated the Mediterranean, thus causing them to settle and develop coastal communities
throughout the region. One of the city-state formed by burgeon Phoenician population was Byblos.
Byblos was the hub of trade, a strong religious center, and flourishing culture as a capital.


THE UNITED PHOENICIAN PARTY
The United Phoenician Party offers a cure for the political disease and new step in the right direction to the
multiple religious, ethnical, sectarian, social factions that are currently fighting in Lebanon.
The DNA and History of the modern Lebanese is a strong link to their ancestors, the Phoenicians.
The United Phoenician Party beliefs centered on bringing back and developing the Phoenician nationality of
modern Lebanon. Lebanon is ethnically (religiously,politically) divided, the idea of the Phoenician nation is a
unique move that rises above the sectarian civil society and unifies those people with a common ancestry.
Rallying a large number of people around the Phoenician concept, transcending nationalities, religions, and
bringing peace to the troubled country and region.

Replying to:

I am from Lebanon and the language spoken there is strikingly similar to Maltese. I guess they both are bsaed on the same Phoenician language spoken for some 4,000 - 5,000 years.
The Maltese language is thought of as having Arabic roots, but this is not accurate.
Maltese is a mix of Phoenician and old Sicilian.
Lebanese is a mix of Phoenician and Arabic.

Al-Himyari's Account -- 1991

I refer to al himyaris accoubt and the unfounded statement about the origins of the Maltese Language to-date

The Arabic conquest of the Maltese Islands (circa 870 AD) is claimed to have wiped out their 'entire' population, thereby annihilating any traces of a Punic vernacular.
Habitation of the Islands is said to have been restored around the year 1050 AD by "Arabic-speaking" people.

We now have scientifc evidence that nearly 60% of the maltese male lineage is in fact Phoenician in origing

See Spencer Wells study ( National Geographic)on the Y chromosome which showed Y chromosomea in 60% of males directly linked to Y chromosomes obtained from the Jaw of a 4000 year old phoenician in the mountains of lebanon

Support for Lebanese Army and for cleaner political environment

Dear Friends,

Being a United Phoenician Party member is about more than politics. We’re a group of
Lebanese-Phoenicians dedicated to improving our country, both through the choices we make at
the ballot box and those we make at home.
That’s why we’re dedicating this year UPP reunion to a challenge we can all tackle together: the
fight for a cleaner political environment in Lebanon.
This year reunion won’t be your normal house party. We’re going to be planting ideas, securing
our boarders, kicking off local groups programs.
Will you host an event in your neighborhood?
We’re also planting the seeds of something a lot bigger, the field organization we need to take
back the presidency, Parliament and secure the boarders in 2007-2008.

President Lahood, Michel Aoun, Nabih Berri , Nasrallah Hezbollah and all the terrorist
organizations stood in the way of progress on the Lebanese people desire for clean
independence from regional conflicts and ignored the Lebanese dream for peace.
They spent years supporting the evil regime’s of Syrian, Iranian and Alqaeda influence in the
Lebanese life by opposing every change in bringing stability to the region including the tribunal
against their war crimes in Lebanon.
This influence against the Cedar Revolution is only benefit the enemies of Lebanon and
Lebanese.
The United Phoenician Party believes we have a moral obligation to lead our country in a new
direction, for a safer, cleaner democracy and stronger national army.
Now it is up to each of us to do his part, despite overwhelming public revolution, president
Lahood, Parliament speaker Berri, Aoun(patriot movement) and Nassralah(Hezbollah) who
convicted of conspiracy and blind support for evil regimes’.
As yet another example of the sick attitude that defines them in Baabda, they shamelessly put
Syrian interest before the Lebanese value.
Lahood doesn’t care that Hezbollah was convicted by the Globe as terrorist and sentenced by
an experienced world judgement, and he doesn’t care that Hezbollah sentence was well within
the sentencing guidelines.
He once again ignored more than 70% of Lebanese public and disregarded the legal process–
this time to help someone who has friends or relatives in the right places.
We can’t stand for this, and that’s why we’re doing something to change it. We may not be able
to change the president’s decision, but we are fighting back – we’re working day and night to
take back Baabda Palace in 2007-2008 so that we can put an end to just thing type of nonsense.
Last summer, Lebanon suffered because of Hezbollah and Aoun miscalculation and their work
plan for the destruction of Lebanon.
This summer, they kept the pressure with the support of their allies who were in the streets.
Demonstration and planting assassinations bombs to destroy our political freedom, now they
are fighting Lebanese army and killing our soldiers.
Roll up your sleeves for cleaner Lebanon from terrorism and support government and
Lebanese Army.

Thank you for fighting back.
