i think this is highly unlikely but related i’m trying to renew my passport and lmao at this verbal/mental gymnastics about whether palestine exists

@angeluspolitian This is not really about if Palestine exists, it's about if Jerusalem is part of Israel. I'm not sure what happens for a US citizen born in Ramallah or Jericho, say. Depends when. Do they write the Ottoman Empire if before 1918? I guess they would probably be dead. British Mandate if before 1948? Jordan if before 1967? What do they write for the 1967-Oslo period? After Oslo? I don't know how any of this works.
