EXCLUSIVE: State of Illinois Officially Recognizes Fictional Country of “Palestine”
By Debbie Schlussel
The United States doesn’t recognize it. Even the United Nations doesn’t recognize it.
And there is no official country called “Palestine.”
But there is, according to the State of Illinois.
Check out this official form the State of Illinois provides to request for the certification of documents for foreign use.
What’s interesting is the countries that aren’t listed. These must be the countries for which people most often request official certified documents and records. Saudia Arabia, Jordan (the REAL “Palestine”), and that fake “Palestine” country. That’s scary. And what do they need the documents for? I wonder which documents are the most requested going to those three entities in particular.
Too bad Hawaii doesn’t have a form like that…
