I've been having some online-based conversations about the #Gaza War with an American Jew as of late.
He is a #Zionist and is convinced that the overall goal of #Palestinians is not only the destruction of the state of #Israel (an admittedly unrealistic goal), but also to drive all the Jews from this reborn #Palestine .
Personally, I am dubious. My assumption is that just like not all Israelis want to destroy the remaining Palestinian territories and drive their inhabitants out, so do not all Palestinians wish to drive out the Jews from a hypothetical future Greater Palestine.
But that's just my assumption - I don't really have a good overview of what various Palestinian groups want in terms of long-term goals. So can anyone share some good links and citations with me on this (since I no longer trust Google with search results, and with this topic less than most)?

there's hundreds of things #Biden does wrong, some of those things especially glaring, like the #USA's support for #Israel while it commits #genocide on #Gaza

We Risked Our Lives to Treat Patients in Gaza. Now President Biden Must Act to Save Lives
As I think about my colleagues who put their lives at stake to save #Palestinians wounded in #Gaza, the question I must ask is: when will President #Biden force the #Israeli government to stop this slaughter?
