'Both peoples have the right to self-determination, whatever the history of the terminology used by them.'
basic problem in your argument...
'Palestinian' self determination only came into existence when the combined Arab nations lost the Six Day War...
When the PLO attacked the Kingdom of Jordan (which in reality sits on 80% of the palestine Mandate) the Jordanians massacred them. Today's 'palestinians' are a hodgepodge of arabs from 22 various arab nations. The vast majority only arrived in the region AFTER Israel was created, seeking jobs.
Regardless, groups like Hamas and Islamic Jihad aren't interested in the principal of 'self determination'. They're interested in destroying israel.
It's a Hoax
