I wasn't aware of any desire on the part of Palestinians to join Israel as citizens, so why do they need to vote in Israeli elections. They almost had their own country, but their leadership realized that to abandon the sworn goal of the destruction of Israel for peace and security would not be acceptable to hardliners amongst the Palestinians. So, they chose to suffer and make others suffer. They had their say, their choice, and their choice is death, for everyone.

As if this were ever an option for them. Not quite. They were driven from their land when the UN took the land they were living on and created Israel. They have been with out a say, without a vote ever since.
