Although Germany does not consider Palestine a country, a majority of the world’s states — 139 out of a total of 193 — at the United Nations do. What’s significant this time, though, is that recognition is apparently being reconsidered by the US, a country that has previously vetoed almost every attempt to make Palestine a country.
The UK also seems to be thinking about it even though in the past, the country has been just as opposed to the move as the US.
oh I dont know about that, the UN has done a fairly passable job - it’s been far more effective then the League of Nations that preceded it.
I’m not a huge fan of the UN, but I’m also convinced we would have had a nuclear war by now if it didn’t exist to allow communication and mediation between the world’s governments.
