It's not at all.

It's completely like Saudi Arabia, 23.

Syria, 46.

Lebanon, 46.

Iran, the current iteration of Iran was formed in 1979.

Saudi Arabia was just a bunch of disconnected tribes and kingdoms that sort of formulate all together.

Jordan became the current stated side in 1980, but before that, 1946.

These are completely normal numbers when countries are formed.

There's nothing illegitimate about that number unless you're saying every single country everywhere is illegitimate, which the far left will absolutely make that argument.

What, Pakistan, what, 47, 48?

Of course, the leftists will say that borders are fake.

We don't need borders because they don't believe in countries.

And they're not saying this country is illegitimate.

They want every country to be illegitimate.

But in terms of what's normal for a country, it's perfectly in line with what's normal for countries.

And it's interesting because people argue with their emotions and that's fine.

I'm not making a case for what's right and wrong.

I'm not making a case for whatever.

I'm showing exactly the data that's there.

Now, of course, if I do make a case is that the truth is important.
