I don’t really get the point of Palestinians as an invented identity because it is irrelevant. Even if it is the truth, there are still a system of apartheid in place, an identity (in this case Arabs) forced on Palestinians by the Israeli Regime. The label doesn’t change the the fact there is systematic oppression of a group.
In other point of view, if the ‘‘Palestinian’’ identity is invented, shouldn’t the Israeli system stop to exist and try to build a more inclusive society?
I also head the argument of Palestinians identity is just Arabs with a history of oppression that differ them from the rest of the Arabs; therefore, it’s not real (and they don’t deserve rights/recognition???). However, the State of israel doesn’t survive this argument neither as Zionism is a building of a jewish and in general eurocentric identity piggyriding on the horror of the holocaust.

Every national identity is invented.
