Every time I see the "Palestinians aren't real before X date" discourse mentioned I will bring up the fact that my grandfather was born in Jerusalem in 1930 and on his birth record it lists his father's nationality as Palestinian. In 1930. Fucking Zionists
my first language isn't English but struggle to speak whole sentences in my mother tongue just because I haven't spoken it in only 5 years. I forgot literally all the vocab and only remember the grammar

I'm Turk, though not Palestinian.
Fuck Zionism!
The fact you say that reminds me of that song "Mudzahedin je turski sin..."
Although I think replace "mudzahedin" with fedayeen and "Bosno" with Falastin and it should be fine...
I recognize the reference, but unfortunately, I never, err, learned Turkish to my chagrin (and I forgot Spanish when I was young).
I'm Turkish and Latino, but never kept the languages... 😢
(Anyway, I'm hoping to re-learn Spanish and trying my hand at it right now.)
