I seem to have shocked that person by telling them that in the early 20th century, the term “Palestinian” in British policy mostly referred to the Jews being emigrated to Palestine, not the “Palestinian Arabs” in Palestine. (They didn’t really solidify that term for their aspirational nationalist identity until the PLO used it extensively in the early 1960s.) He flatly rejected this and accused me of being a Zionist shill. Oh well.
