There is no such thing as “the palestinians”

this is the very first WRONG PREMISE for any negotiations, either the ones Kerry just recently blew to Hell...or any future talks...

There have been several clear admissions or statements to this effect by Arab leaders. One that I just happen to have copied from the web....below.... (you can easily find more...).

“The Palestinian people does not exist. The creation of a
Palestinian state is only a means for continuing our struggle
against the state of Israel for our Arab unity. In reality
today there is no difference between Jordanians,
Palestinians, Syrians and Lebanese. Only for political and
tactical reasons do we speak today about the existence of
a Palestinian people, since Arab national interests demand
that we posit the existence of a distinct ‘Palestinian
people’ to oppose Zionism.

“For tactical reasons, Jordan, which is a sovereign state
with defined borders, cannot raise claims to Haifa and Jaffa.
While as a Palestinian, I can undoubtedly demand Haifa,
Jaffa, Beer-Sheva and Jerusalem. However, the moment we
reclaim our right to all of Palestine, we will not wait even
a minute to unite Palestine and Jordan.”

(PLO executive committee member Zahir Muhsein, in a 1977
interview with the Dutch newspaper Trouw.)
