ONE ISLAM NATION

First of all, I will never accept that "Palestine" is a nation. Secondly, Israel can never get a fair deal at the United Nations because the General Assembly is dominated by Muslim countries.

The Palestinians are not a distinct people. They practise the same religion and speak the same language as the rest of the Arab world. Islam calls for "unity" amongst Muslims, so why not just lump them all into one big Caliphate? No, they will never do that because it would weaken their vote at the UN.
