Secondly, I'm not sure how you could have read through the ICG publication and come away from it having drawn the conclusion that Palestinians view the right of return as a full physical right of return. And excuse me, but what ICG writes is relevant to the discussion when that paper included polls showing things like only 10% of refugees polled want a full physical return (and note this doesn't mean just to Israel, but also includes to the future Palestinian state). Also, you not being a Palestinian either, don't get to sit there and pick and choose which Palestinian you think will represent all Palestinian thought on a subject. That's exactly like someone taking what Lieberman has to say as being representative of Israeli thought.
