A Palestinian from Nablus is not an Israeli citizen, just like the guy from Buffalo, NY, is not a Canadian citizen. I cannot run for public office in the USA because I am not a US citizen.
That being said - Israel does make provisions for reuniting family (elderly parents with children) also Palestinians living in Jerusalem (technically West Bank for some here) have been offered Israeli citizenship. Most refuse. it.

Well first, if a guy from Buffalo, NY has one parent or grand parent from London, ON, then yes they can automatically claim Canadian citizenship. If that same Palestinian from Nablus has roots in Haifa, Israel, they would have no claim to Israeli citizenship.
Second, Canada doesn't demolish homes in upstate New York, to build Canadian only homes or control access to Buffalo, via Canadian only highways.
