Don't you think that being a hub for foreign companies would be an excellent way for Palestine to be recognized (and possibly protected) by the rest of the world?

As much as wearing a kyffeia in any jewish neighborood can lead to some friendly 5vs1 improptu meetup in a dark alley with some of the local "security" (Rome ghetto would be an excellent example).
