John: Palestinians, like other folks, have a right to live in their ancestral homeland. Although to folks like you one Muslim may be interchangeable with any other, Muslims (like Your Girlfriend Me Shirt) are hardly monolithic. They may share a religion, but otherwise they are quite different from each other (e.g., ethnicity, language, customs, nationality, etc..). How strange it would sound to an Albanian Kosovar, stripped of his land by Serbs, or to a Circassian, stripped of his land by Russians, to suggest that he move to Pakistan, Somalia, or Indonesia. After all, he is a Muslim and these countries are Muslim-majority, right? Not right. Ridiculous.
