Finally, you realize, don't you, that there's no such thing as an ethnic "Palestinian." If I'm wrong, explain to me the difference between a Jordanian and a so-called "Palestinian."

Excellent point. What I've heard, and please correct me, if it's wrong, is that Arabs only started using the moniker "Palestinian" to describe themselves, after the Six Day War.

Correct. And the "West Bank" was never part of any "Palestinian" homeland; it belonged to Jordan.
