    The US State department says they support a two state solution and then freaks out when people recognize Palestine as the second state.

      I know you’re just kidding around, but it does seem that Antartica is a far light shade of grey, probably should’ve included it in the legend though.

        Yes, I noticed that. And, they didn’t point out which colour are seas either - sometimes you have to assume common knowledge is known to common people. A bad assumption, just a necessary one.

    I have never understod why Palestine didn’t automatically become a UN member at the same time Israel did.

    Didn’t the UN basically create both countries through the “two state ‘solution’”?

    Meanwhile here in Canada the conservatives and liberals are refusing to see the genocide for what it actually is. Down with BIBI.

    We need proportional representation badly.

      Don’t let perfect be the enemy of good. Would you rather things stayed as they were?
