Yes, except for the "westerners" bit. People from everywhere conflate this issue - even people living in the region. Check out The Ask Project on youtube, tons of people on all sides of the issue are misguided or simply wrong - and they live there.

"never been a country" -> except for the 138 countries that do recognize it as a country.

Moreover, why is this a strong rejoinder? Black South Africa was never recognized as a country either, does that mean there was no moral concern?
