> I'm pretty sure that there are PA citizens learning in israeli universities though, especially Ariel.

Ariel is probably the worst example you could have chosen. Palestinian residents of the West Bank are not allowed to enter the settlement of Ariel that Ariel University is in, so that seems unlikely. I'm pretty sure there are zero PA citizens enrolled at Ariel.

I would not be surprised if there are zero PA citizens enrolled at any Israeli universities, I'm not 'pretty sure' there are zero, but pretty sure there are very very few if any, and possibly zero or nearly so. (see for example http://www.richardsilverstein.com/2009/05/28/banning-palesti... http://gisha.org/press/1033 )

The suggestion that Gaza residents have obtained "everything that goes along with independence" is too ridiculous to say much more about.
