You are an elitist though because you continually deny what Palestinians want and continually pretend the Ottomans weren't capable of having laws about immigrants.
And Hamas is clear what they want which isn't secular and isn't equal rights. The PA also sees Palestine as an Islamic state so if you really supported what you claim, you'd be critical of them.
The PA Constitution
Article 4
- Islam is the official religion in Palestine. Respect for the sanctity of all other divine religions shall be maintained.
- The principles of Islamic Shari’a shall be a principal source of legislation.
- Arabic shall be the official language.
Hamas
The movement
1. The Islamic Resistance Movement “Hamas” is a Palestinian Islamic national liberation and resistance movement. Its goal is to liberate Palestine and confront the Zionist project. Its frame of reference is Islam, which determines its principles, objectives and means.
The Land of Palestine
2. Palestine, which extends from the River Jordan in the east to the Mediterranean in the west and from Ras al-Naqurah in the north to Umm al-Rashrash in the south, is an integral territorial unit. It is the land and the home of the Palestinian people. The expulsion and banishment of the Palestinian people from their land and the establishment of the Zionist entity therein do not annul the right of the Palestinian people to their entire land and do not entrench any rights therein for the usurping Zionist entity.
3. Palestine is an Arab Islamic land. It is a blessed sacred land that has a special place in the heart of every Arab and every Muslim.
Don't see much talk about secularism and based on the laws of both the PA and Hamas, there sure seems to be a ton of oppression.
