Is anyone who lives in an occupied territory automatically a slave? Of course not. People living in areas of conflict and occupation aren't slaves, at least not automatically so. And the Palestinians where not slaves.

You can talk all you want about how bad they had it. And in truth I would not want to trade places with the average Palestinian either now or back before the violence eliminated many of their jobs. But slavery wasn't happening either before or after they lost the jobs.
