Wait wait wait wait. I know I've been surprised by this map numerous times.
BUT RUSSIA RECOGNIZES IT?
Also looking at this map, it seems the majority of the population of Earth recognizes it.
So in my head, that means that Palestine is 100% a nation. With sovereignty. And the US, Europe, and Australia are still "lalala i can't hear you" and "can't be a genocide if you aren't a targeted group of people that we recognize lalalalala."
Back when they were a communist nation, they and most other communist/aligned countries recognized them.
Commies are cool, as it turns out.
Kinda depends on what kind of commie. Authoritarians like CCP, Bolsheviks and the Kim family? Never. But the Kronstadt sailors who died fighting the hypocrisies of the Bolsheviks, and the Japanese Communist Party who chose the peaceful route to try to gain power? They are cool.
