Either way, it shouldn't be passed because palestine doesn't fit all the criteria for a member state.  One of the main criteria is having set borders... which Palestine doesn't have.  Some are trying to use the 1967 borders, however those borders weren't established in a peace treaty, but instead in a cease fire, that has been broken a couple times since then and a cease fire isn't a legally binding agreement of permanent borders, but just a temporary set of battlelines until the establishment of a peace treaty.

The same logic would imply that Israel shouldn't be member state, as all of palestine's borders that aren't definitely set are borders to israel.

(this is a reply to Kasz and you)

Actually borders don't make countries

Country (as in land)

State (Power to control it's own)

Nation (People who share the same culture)

borders aren't a main criteria.
