So it’s not just Palestine… while you can happily share a Coke with USA, you cannot with Russia.
Oddly, you CAN with the USSR (looks like they missed a trick there).
But what if you really want to share a Coke with Palestine?
Well, you can… just add an exclamation mark to the end ;)
Coca-Cola doesn’t think you should share a Coke with Palestine but they’re OK with you sharing a Coke with Nazis, racists & bigots.
(Among other things, this is because they’re not very good at basic string validation.)

@aral apparently also no Iran.
I guess everything that has US sanctions on it?
@sheogorath Yeah, probably.
@aral they already shared fanta 
@opal Probably.
:youjo-pink: 
@Chizu Oh my.
@aral Just out of curiosity, what happens with /North/ Korea? Did they think to block that?
@tam Haha, yeah, just did the same thing (also adding a dash or a single quote or any of the other accepted characters works – you get the list if you enter an unacceptable character like a dollar sign.) Was originally trying for a zero-width space but this is equally good, me thinks ;)
Just found out you can't do Coke with Scarface or Tony Montana either. :)
...or share one with cocaine.

@mrsaturday That’s (sadly) not it. Some country names are blacklisted. See the other posts in the thread for more examples.
@aral Possibly because "Israel" can be a first name, but not "Palestine"?
@dheadshot Sadly, not the reason. Unless there are folks walking around called USA or South Korea, that is (see the rest of the thread). Palestine was specifically blacklisted.
@DanielUsesArchLinux Looks like they’ve removed all country names now except for USA / America.
