When people say "Free Palestine", do they mean West bank and Gaza, or the whole region of Palestine?

Whether they know it or not, this is what they mean:


The only real problem with this “aspiration” is that there’s the minor detail of a country with 9.25 million people called Israel within the area depicted on this map.

As the instigator, aggressor and loser of multiple wars declared as wars of extermination against Israel, for some reason the Palestinian leaders and their followers, foreign and domestic, seem to think that the loser of multiple wars that they either started, incited or participated in have the right to dictate terms of surrender to the winner of those wars.

Oddly enough, we Israelis have this strange objection against committing national suicide, so this forlorn Palestinian hope isn’t going to happen any time soon.
