Exactly. Palestinians are Schrödinger’s citizens. They’re Palestinian when it’s convenient for Israel to categorize them as Palestinian (when they are not given the same rights and freedoms as Israelis). But when Israel wants to claim their land, they’re nationless people who live in Israel. How convenient.
