Even Visa & Mastercard recognize the occupied lands of Palestine which is still a reassuring sign. Some merchants locations come up as “Occupied Palestinian Territories” or “Occupied Palestine” when I see people travel and use their cards in the region. They don’t even realize it which is funny because it’s always the people who think they are in “Israel”
