52. So when will they be a nation in your mind?
When they get recognized as a state and get the blessing of Israel/USA and the UN? So one day before they are not a nation, the next they will be even though they existed as an entity and had all those components that a nation has that define them. So with whom are all those foreign diplomats talking to when they talk to their representatives? To Jordan and Lebanon or even Israel? Or do they refer to them as Palestinians? I guess they are talking to a non-existing entity that has no name, or at least those that don't like them much don't consider them as such, while in the hearts and minds of others they'r still Palestinians, regardless if they have an internationally recognized state or not.
