No, maps are merely
one point of evidence, not the whole story regarding "national sovereignty," but a
generally valid one. If a country merely "doesn't exist" on the maps of a few enemies, then it's obvious what is happening in those cases. That is the case with Israel--recognized by all other countries except a few enemies. This is not to be compared with the Confederate States of America, which is recognized by ZERO other modern countries, and appears on NO modern maps, except, I imagine, those printed in a few basements by delusional sympathizers. Just try to buy one--CSA is probably difficult to find printed in a 20th or 21st Century atlas--except as a point referring to 1861-65 history. But they probably have one at the Gettysburg National Park gift shop!
Sorry I don't know what "middle eastern Curries" are. Is it a local
dish?
PS. Luke, please start rereading what you expect other people to read, instead of assuming autofill knows what you intend.
