Is the Phrase “State of Palestine” Catching On?

In 2013, Mahmoud Abbas proclaimed that henceforth the Palestinian Authority would be called the “State of Palestine.” It is worth noting how successful he has been in popularizing the phrase, and among whom.

Fighting COVID-19 vs. Upholding Civil Rights
