Recognition of Palestine as a country continue to be contradiction. Although has been recognized as observer at the United Nations, does not mean that Palestine has been recognized internationally as a country.
As an observer, the position of palestine no more than protectorate such as Hong Kong, Taiwan, Vatican and Monaco, which all not sovereign, can't build a military, only allowed have police.
So, which be winner in the conflict of Palestine as a state or not, actually is America and Israel. With status as observer, until the end of the world, will never exist a country named Palestine.
So, if you imagine a country Palestine as a state at the UN, like as imagine Vatican status as a state in the UN.
Palestine with its status as an observer will not have any rights but instead charged some duties to report all the activities of human rights and democracy at territory its. Associated with its position in the negotiations with Israel, the Palestine is not a state, so Palestine can't negotiate about the borders of their State. Which can negotiable with Israel is just their tax as a tribe living on the land of a country

Hi Palestine can become a state if 1.they get rid of Hamas,2. regonize Israel
3.after recoize Israel for get about israel for a while were
the Gaza strip is that all water front property
The Palestine people should turn that into a mid east
las vegas if people of the world knew that all rocket are no longer
going to fire in to Israel and the area is rally safe,
people like trump will invest in that area that can become
the hotest spot for people,it to go to for fun ,this can bring in a lot of jobs for that area.
if the Pa stop firing rockets at israel
then it can happen as long as rocket are fired
Israel has a right to defend it self

Why should the Palestinians recognise Israel if Israel can not do the same.
The World is waking up to the human right abuse the Iraelis carry out. The illegal occupancy and building of settlements.
Ironically Israel is using techniques last used by Nazi Geramny when the annexed Poland

Palestine should be a state! Israel claims they owned the land thousands of years ago. Well? Holland was an Italian province thousand of years ago as well. But what if Italy claimed Holland now?? The whole world would tell them to back off!
Israel is a very aggressive country. Other countries only support it out of guilt because of what happened during WW II.
Before anyone accuses me of being anti-Semite: I am NOT! But I am against Israel's policy. The Palestines can hardly survive because Israel contols everything that is going in and out of Palestine. Whateven the UN say: Israel doesn't bother and does whatever it wants. It's disgusting. Israel doesn't want peace.

palestine will become a state. it is in the process of becoming one. having gained the status observer at the UN has facilitated the process because UN with its network and power will make it happen. israel is trying to be stubborn in its acceptance to the new status of palestine. but israel's cooperation is necessary for having palestinian state.

honestly, I don't expect will be stand the state of Palestine. If there is the state of Palestine, then Israel will continue to fight against the Palestinian people.
I think it would be better in that area no one claim a country. As long as there is which claims a country in that territory, then that territory would always there the war.

the palestine diplomacy win..
but like you said that it`s not enough..
to be free country, they should be admitted as de facto and de jure..
i do hope another country can support the fighting of Palestine get their rights to be freedom country

Why can't America and Israel do anything? Never heard of VETO? As long as America supports Israel, Palestine is going nowhere. Unfortunately enough!!

Are you a military observer? It's a great honor to have that position. I am an ADC to a General and he was once a candidate to be the UN's military observer. I think he was not chosen. He mentioned that there were so many competitors for that position. Good for you sir!

I am not a military observer, I am just trying to understand what I read from the news. The News of admission Palestine as an observer in the organization united nations certainly is an interesting story that should not be passed for criticized

We should not blame Palestine for claiming the lands they assert to own. Ancient history records show that the Palestinians owned what is now Israel before they were conquered by the later when they reached that place on their arrival from Egypt.

this really headache issue. some country don agree , there is no consensus. if palestine is not a state so it cannot negotiate about the borders of their state. there is so many speculation Israel is bad ,palestine is good . i just don give a !!!!.. the most important criteria is they need to be good country. if united nation took a step like need country to certify Palestine as a country, then, why palestinian people need to hear all the country approval
