Palestinian freedom through Google?

The recent Fatah conference in Bethlehem was a sign that the US-backed Palestinian party was utterly removed from reality.

But not to worry, why do Palestinians need a state when they have this?

Ten years after Google Inc first rolled out its internet search engine, Palestine finally has its own Google domain, enabling the territories to access localized search results.… Since Google launched its iconic website in 1998 it has been slowly adding many of the world’s local domains like google.co.uk (Google UK) and google.jo (Google Jordan), but it was not until Thursday that Google launched google.ps, enabling the Palestinian Territories’ estimated 2.4 million residents to redefine searches.
