Well I read the entire thread and the first thing I'd like to note is that it was nice to see everyone respecting some modicum of civility.
The second thing I noticed is a lot of backpedaling
I believe the original statement was actually made by the PLO ambassador

The Palestine Liberation Organization's ambassador to the
United States said Tuesday that any future Palestinian state it seeks with help from the
United Nations and the United States should be free of Jews.
( snip )
He was responding to a question about the rights of minorities in a Palestine of the future.
Such a state would be the first to officially prohibit Jews or any other faith since
Nazi Germany, which sought a country that was
judenrein, or cleansed of Jews

So, you think it would be necessary to first transfer and remove every Jew—
Absolutely. No, I’m not saying to transfer every Jew, I’m saying transfer Jews who, after an agreement with Israel, fall under the jurisdiction of a Palestinian state.
Any Jew who is inside the borders of Palestine will have to leave?
Absolutely. I think this is a very necessary step, before we can allow the two states to somehow develop their separate national identities, and then maybe open up the doors for all kinds of cultural, social, political, economic exchanges, that freedom of movement of both citizens of Israelis and Palestinians from one area to another. You know you have to think of the day after.

From what I can tell it's official policy to remove all Jews from any future pali state. And then the pali's got in trouble politically for it. At which point they flip flopped in order to try and win the PR war.
