Palestine has UN status upgraded.

One may argue that the upgrade could give the Palestinian Authority more levers (peaceful) to make the push to statehood successful. Given the structure of the UN though, it may just heighten everyones frustration with the entire process.

So, are we on the path of peace and plenty for all, or are we weaving a dangerous course which will only lead to violence and disillusion?
