Why is the Palestinian flag just a Pan-Arabist flag? As opposed to anything to do with Palestine?
Instead just "Placeholder for the Pan-Arab Caliphate We Dream To Be A Part Of"?
Did you know each color on the Pan-Arab flag represents an Arab imperial Caliphate and their associated imperial conquests of non-Arab-indigenous lands??

One of the meanings of the colors is the succession of Islamic Caliphates. Black represents the Rashidun caliphate, which existed from 632-661, and the Abbasid Caliphate, which existed from 750-1517. These are the first and third true Caliphates respectively, and they were marked by a pure black banner. The color white represents the second Caliphate, the Umayyad Caliphate, which was the true Caliphate from 661-750, and whose banner color was white. The color green represents the Fatimid Caliphate, which existed from 909-1171 in North Africa before being conquered by the Abbasids. Red represents the Hashemites, who have traditionally ruled Mecca, and the Ottomans, who, while not Arab, were the fourth true Caliphate and controlled many Arab lands.
