And what does the US state department say on Palastine independence? I know that the US doesn't recognize it as a country, and if they don't recognize Palastine's sovereignty over its land then they must recognize it as part of Israel. Many Palestinians would like to be part of Israel, if not for better economic security. Both pseudo-countries have a lot of facts about them the same.

As for Taiwan, back in the day they claimed to be the "real China", and forced the UN to only ever recognize "one China". This rightly pissed off everyone on the mainland. I don't see any movement on Taiwan's status until everyone who can remember that historic slight has passed on, hopefully through natural means.

It takes stunning amounts of historical illiteracy to think there's any actual parallels between Taiwan and Palestine.

Well, for starters, they both were on the loosing sides of a war. But, I feel that you are a Chineese national and I have learned that there just is no arguing with someone like that, so I shall bid you good day and end this thread.

I'm not a Chinese national, I'm just minimally informed about the subject I'm discussing.
