So what? If the Palestinians are allowed to advocate for having a state of their own - and indeed every other people of the world - why not the Jews? If you want to say that things like countries shouldn't exist for anyone, that would be an interesting conversation to have. But saying that only the Jews are not permitted to advocate for an ethnically and culturally defined nationhood, while all other ethnically and culturally cohesive groups are permitted to do so, is not a legitimate position to take.

(Not that you want or need my help in this particular debate, but):

It would help if the Palestinians dropped their "From the River to the Sea" ideology and accepted a Jewish state alongside theirs. But they haven't, instead agitating for, starting and losing wars in 1948/1967/1973/1982. While Israel has created a beautiful and prosperous nation the Palestinians have been ruled by corrupt despots who've funneled money to themselves and created an infrastructure for terrorism.

Two peoples, two sets of decisions, two paths taken. And now we're here.
