Would the opportunity come up? Palestine's GDP is $12B, Taiwan's is $1.1T.

Taiwan's GDP counts for around 4% of the Chinese GDP, to give you more context, Chinese GDP growth slowed down to 6.8% pa, that is still creating 1.5 times of the entire GDP in Taiwan every 12 months.

using your logic here, please don't argue further more, otherwise you'd be arguing with yourself - who care about the tiny island called taiwan.

What I was saying is that it's far more likely in general Apple would be dealing with Taiwan, the world's 22nd largest economy, than Palestine, the 129th. That and the large microelectronics industry in Taiwan.
