Even a Zip Code is political?

Wikipedia says Zip Code 71917 is in “Disputed territory. Palestine.”

Here is something for Wikipedia to consider, in the interests of accuracy: Palestine does not exist. There is no such entity and has not been since May 14, 1948, when Israel declared its existence and was immediately invaded by the armies of Egypt, Lebanon, Syria and Jordan, as well as forces from Iraq and Saudi Arabia. Israel’s statehood ended the League of Nations Mandate of Palestine.

A site called earth-explorer.appspot.com says the Zip Code is “A Postal Code in Palestine.”
