Palestine is recognised as a state by a majority of the free world. That is an undeniable fact.
There are many states that do recognize Palestine, but I don't think you can claim a "majority of the free world" does.
Edit: Countries in my obviously-subjective "free world" bucket that do recognize Palestine include Sweden, Iceland, Belize, South Africa, Hungary, India, and Turkey.
Edit 2: I seem to be gathering disapproval, possibly because representatives of a majority of the world's population do indeed recognize Palestine. I was responding to the claim that "a majority of the free world" has recognized Palestine. Whether "the free world" is a useful designation is certainly debatable, but that was the claim in the parent post.

Of the 193 member states of the United Nations, 136 (70.5%) have recognised the State of Palestine as of 14 September 2015. Their total population is over 5.5 billion people, equaling 80 percent of the world's population.[85] T

Not sure what you think a majority is, but where I come from more 50% makes a majority...
Or are you trying to say that most countries are not part of the free world. "But what is a free world?" One might ask. Well "the states that happen to play along with my agenda, of course". The rest are obviously non-free or somehow compromised ;-)
I think it's more accurate or fair to categorize those countries in this case as being motivated by "alliances", rather than "freedom".
