The Palestinians are indeed part of a larger group of Arabs as well, but they are also a distinct people, forged from their shared experiences first as Ottoman subjects, then in the British Mandate, then under Egyptian and Jordanian occupation, and lastly under Israeli occupation.

As a people, the Palestinians deserve self-determination in a state of their own, alongside and at peace with Israel, where Jews deserve self-determination and protection in a state of their own. Ideally both of these states would be ethnic homelands with full minority rights, like many states in the old world such as Greece.

Ah yes, Israel Shamir aka Izie Schmerler aka Joran Jermas, the paranoid insane incoherent Holocaust-denying rambler who is loved by ‘pro-Palestinian peace activists.’ That’s how you can tell that the Palestinians are a legitimate people with legitimate aspirations. Yessir.
