The countries in question:

“I’m Doug Dimmadome owner of the Dimsdale Dimadome, and I recognize the country of Palesdome, er, Palestine”
I love when shows have subtle nods to show their support for these things rather than having to draw as much attention as possible to how progressive they are being
Here we are 23 years later learning about this, it’s kind of making the nostalgia around this show shine again.
This episode is going to be put on more blocklists than the Teletubbies bear now.
Pretty sure I have a French language DVD of that specific Teletubbies episode. Pirated too.
And yes, it’s only that episode.
Did they put the Chad flag right next to the Romanian flag?
baited
or should I say, Barbaited!
it seems like they used the wrong colors if they intended to draw Barbados though, otherwise I couldn’t find an exact match.
I thought it’s just Romania, twice.
Dammit Canada get your shit together and recognize Palestine
sigh guess I need to go write another letter to my MP
With how chunky the flags are it could just be Jordan
It’s possible, but even at that level of detail it would have been trivial to add a white dot and elongate the red triangle. I’m thinking they intended it to be Palestine.
My country was one of the first. It also recently recognized Israel as well. Everyone I know is protesting the latter.
Spoiler: it’s Morocco.
Funny thing: they did so in exchange for other countries recognizing their annexation of the Western Sahara. Their own little Palestine
It was just one country, really.
First Arab country to do so, sad
Egypt. It’s Egypt.
Maybe it’s the flag of Saddam Hussein’s Ba’ath party? Maybe that cartoon was openly defending the right for Iraq to get WMDs?

The second image in the lead is showing the list of countries who recognised Palestine after the episode in question. Based on the title, you need the list of countries who recognised before.
And yes, we recognised them in 1988.
simply put, i thought it’d be more interesting to do it that way

Hi, jewish american here. I recognize Palistine, and I have a hard time understanding why “safe for jews” and “recognizing palistine” are mutually exclusive. Could you elaborate on that? Just so you know any answer involving Isreal I’m just going to call antisemetic since conflating jews and Isreal is antisemitic in the same way conflating China and chinese people is racist.
Jewish people have no problems with the recognition of Palestine.
Other then the fact that its the state religion of Israel and the supposed location of some “promised” land.
What do jews in the rest of the world have to do with it.
Surely any decent human being regardless of cultural background understands that bombing schools and hospitals isn’t very neighborly.
Jewish americans make up 2% of the population though?
jewish community fleeing inquisition
I sure wan’t expecting this.
How so?
