There is, in my mind, a significant difference between the ROC and Israel. Israel is recognized by at leat 161 foreign states. The ROC is recognized by no more than 24 states. Israel is a member of the UN, the ROC isn't...

It is and should be mentioned that Taiwan/ROC is a disputed territory. As concerns international law, its status is uncertain. Israel's status isn't disputed in the same way.

How is People's Republic of China and Taiwan dealt with? Is it mentioned on each category that some don't recognise one or the other's existance? If so, then the same should be mentioned on the Israel category: a fair number of countries do not recognise it and we shouldn't just assume the position of the US/EU.
