Obviously, but it also depends if the terrorists used extreme methods such as killing civilians, bombing places to dust etc..

Arab Press Reminds Turkey and Israel of Armenian Genocide
The persecution and oppression of Kurds in Turkey basically renders Turkish PM Recep Tayyip Erdogan’s calls for justice and compassion in Gaza worthless, reports the Arab-language London-based publication Al Hayat.
“Justice and rights cannot be separated from each other. Those who, in one place, speak of rights and justice, while in another case, disregard those values, are using double standards. It’s no secret that Turkey’s ruling Justice and Development Party works this way. Turkey has not acknowledged the fact it has committed ethnic cleansing of millions of Armenians and Assyrians and has displaced these people.
“On the contrary, all those who dare to speak about it are being prosecuted in Turkey. So far, Turkey has not acknowledged those massacres and the justice mentioned by Erdogan must also include recognition of the Genocide committed by the Turkish state,” the paper said.
Al Hayat also reports that the campaign against famous Turkish writer and Nobel Peace Prize Laureate Orhan Pamuk was launched because he started speaking about the massacres of Armenians and Kurds that took place in Turkey.
“For 20 years, the Turkish army killed 30,000 people, thousands of Kurdish villages were vacated and burned. More than 4 million Kurds left their homes, ran away and settled in cities.
“Kurdish regions were blockaded which was more horrible than the blockade of the Gaza Strip by Israel. But neither Erdogan nor his party members uttered a single word about that; they remembered neither the slaughtered children nor the crying women,” Al Hayat concluded.

I think people need to stop using this argument though Aaron. It's not the right way, as I'm sure you know that and we know that however, people are taking this the wrong way. Arabs should not be using this argument, and I encourage them not too...but the Israelis are. Most Israelis will bring in, like I said earlier, the religious card and say "God chose them for this land" or some religious bullshit like that. If it's not that reason, then it's "We had more Jews than Arabs before 1920's" which is just blatantly a lie.
Like I said, it's not a matter of who came first, but the freedom that the Palestinians want. An independent country with social, economic and military revenues. Israel is not fulfilling this like it said it would in the 70's, and in the 90's. I feel sorry for the Palestinians living in the occupied territories, they must be losing their minds slowly slowly so I don't blame them for the terror tactics. Israel is the one that needs to be blamed, not the Palestinians.

I believe that realisitcally they represent that same genetic group that through different sets of experiences and geographic/climactic circumstances evolved distinctly different traits which were commonly associated with religion instead of that at that time unknown genetics, In fact both are Semitic variances which means they have to be genetically linked at least that's what my keen interest in the topic has led me to believe.
