You know, when you advantage a hypothetical displacement over an ongoing one, the implicit argument is that Israelis are superior to Palestinians. You're asking: wouldn't it be horrible for the Palestinians to do to the Israelis what the Israelis are doing to the Palestinians?
If you think it's unfair to displace one oppressed people in favor of another, then yea, I agree.
And the slogan is “Palestine will be free”. It isn’t that Israelis will be exiled or some shit. It is a call for liberation of all people.
Let's also not forget that these people didn't seem to care that Israel very much engaged in "from the river to the sea" when they continued to displace and marginalize the majority-population mid-20th century as dictated by outside nations.
And if the world was that concerned over the refugees of the Holocaust, why didn't the British or Poland volunteer a piece of their own land?
This was actually in the original charter for Likud
