The Jews agree that Jerusalem was not originally their city but was Canaanite until conquered in the late 11th century BC. This gives no evidence that Jews and Phoenicians were the same people.
The third-mill citations you give don't pan out as Jerusalem doesn't seem to go back before the 19th century BC. It's entirely possible there exists one older "Egyptian statue" and/or "[Ebla] tablet" but they don't come up and there are no Ebla tablets before ca. 2500 BC. Instead, I see I don't even have to ask for your source because you plagiarized Phoenicia.org, written by Salim Khalaf without further sourcing. So let's drop the partisan rhetoric and stick to elite research, thanks.

And you should know, because you research Wikipedia. LOL
you plagiarized Phoenicia.org
That's some strong wording you use... that's right, Phoenicia.org is the correct source. Next time I'll remember and mention it as quotation, and reference it as a source, if it bothers you so much. I think what bothers you even more is that I state your beloved Jews are not the true Israelites. That's why you're using the word "plagiarized", I must have struck a sensitive spot.
And Salim Khalaf probably got it (you see I don't use the word plagiarized) from Constantin Tsutras ORDM. Here is the quote "The original inhabitants of Jerusalem were Phoenician Canaanites. Jerusalem was originally a village built on a hill. The name "Urushalim is first found on Egyptian statues, circa 2500 B.C. "Urushalim", and in fact is a word of Canaanite derivation; the prefix "uru", meaning "founded by", and the suffix "salem" or "Shalem," Phoenician Canaanite "GOD OF DUSK.".
The word "plagiarized" is common for use without edit or attribution; now that you've apologized I'll drop the charge. Yes, I do use Wikipedia to supplement my memory, and when fitting I quote them rather than summarize them. My memory was that Ebla was postdiluvian and so there wouldn't be any tablets before ca. 2500 BC for that reason either, but the fact that Wikipedia agrees isn't a problem.
However, you don't add any data about alleged Egyptian statues or Ebla tablets. But thank you for pointing out that Constantin Tsutras and Salim Khalaf say exactly the same thing. Ordinarily I'd say that one plagiarized from the other because neither give dates or sources, but since I don't know which I'll give them both a pass.
You seem to attribute some relationship between me and Jews other than the fact that I do worship one Jew, Jesus Christ. As a Christian, I believe the whole Bible is accurate and Judah (b. 1793 BC) is the son of Israel, making all Jews Israelites. I know there are recent skeptics disagreeing but I've investigated all their claims and found them valueless.
I see no evidence that Tsutras's book is worth investing in as I'm not interested in "esoteric interpretations beyond the literal and historical accepted meanings" when the literal historical isn't accepted in the first place. He seems to be a Noachite who thinks he's transcended Christianity.
The point is that Jerusalem being originally a Canaanite city, just as the Bible states, is no evidence that Jews aren't Israelites, an extraordinary claim that requires extraordinary evidence. The default evidence of the Bible stands unchallenged. If you want free reading, consider that the majority of the Ten Plagues are historically attested in the year 1540-1539, exactly the year the Biblical chronology points to.

And if you want to read a wonderful book written by Constantin Tsutras, called "Ancient Wisdom & Divine Mysteries: The Hidden Meaning of Ancient Scriptures and Allegories", it's available for sale at Amazon.
