Ahmadinejad holocaust denial & threat to nuke Israel

Really if you can't be against atleast all those things you're not on the revolutionary left though, it's not just a matter of most.

But I thought Palestinian religion, ethnicity and nationalism are the very same reasons Palestinians doesn't accept the Zionist occupation and need their (or their grandfathers) land back.
Or maybe nationalism, religion and ethnicity aren't so bad when coming from the victim/underdog mouth.

Sorry OP for derailing the thread in a total off-topic discussion.

I tend to think that the reason Palestinians resent the Zionists is the burtalization, the massacres, the displacement, the overall injustice of the situation rather than just hating Jews or people of a different ethnicity. I'd go as far as to say that most would be fine with sharing a unified Palestine with Jews, a state with no enforced ethnic or religious hierarchy, a state that lets them live where they please and roam where they please.

Of course, that doesn't mean that there doesn't exist a fair share of hatred for Jews or Semites in Palestine, but such is a natural social fallout of the existing arrangements.
