Submission + - Google recognizes Palestine (sort of) (haaretz.com) 1

Asa Zernik writes: "Forget a seat in the UN, or state visits from Presidents — the newest sign of international recognition as a nation (whenever in dispute) is your very own localized Google site. In the latest news, the Palestinian Territories now have Google page. Compare to the observer seats in the UN and the Arab League; which one is going to make the most daily difference?

On a side note, Kosovo, Abkhazia, and South Ossetia are missing their own localized Google sites, though this is probably due to their lack of TLDs. Taiwan has one, on its .tw. But a country-code TLD isn't enough to get Google to make you a site — there's no google.su."
