19. I like your plan
However, it should be pointed out:

1. Israel was created much more recently than the conquest of Native Americans in the US.

2. Native Americans have historically recognized US authority to a much larger extent than Muslim Palestinians have ever accepted the authority of Israel.

For these reasons, I think it is okay to make a policy distinction between the Native American situation and the Muslim Palestinian situation.


PS "Muslim Palestinian" seems awkward -- not sure of the correct label for this group.
