By the way, I’m an American. My roots come from Palestine. I call myself an American. So you saying “they NEVER call themselves American” isn’t true. Since I right now am telling you I am an American, even with my strong roots in Palestine.
I don’t mean to say anything offensively. Just you should’ve said the palestinians I KNOW never call themselves Americans, instead of putting palestinians in one whole category which becomes a pretty racial issue.

Yes, he is American from Palestinian origin, and I guess your constitution gives him all the rights just like you and all other. Unless there is something that said ‘if you are originally Palestinian, you are not American.’

Do I smell racism here?

I cannot seem to load that article. Are you saying they are not Palestinians?

I know a number of US citizens who are of Palestinian origins. They never call themselves American. I’ve never heard that. They always say they are Palestinian. Just making a guess (since I cannot load that artilce) but I’m gussing they thought their blue passports gave them more “immunity” than they actually had. Especially the 17 year old son. I was 17 too once. I remember what that’s like.

West Bank from Jordan; Allenby Bridge. The victims were 47 year old Tina Hannouneh and her 17 year old son. Their crime? Michael, the 17 year old, did not understand Arabic commands shouted at him by Israeli officers who assumed he was a Palestin Read the rest
