Talk about not answering questions, I asked you some time ago to name 2-3 Palestinians you identify with - who share your liberal values & wouldn't be considered freakishly rightwing in western society. I know I can name quite a few Palestinians I can identify with. How about yourself?

Or can I assume you only support rightwing Palestinians?
