Despite it is a symbolic move more than anything, I believe it is a historical moment to see the Palestinian Flag raised at the UNGA after all those decades.
Yes the UN is realistically useless but still.
As I said it is symbolic because in the end we got a flag without a free nation in the real world.

Palestinian flag raised at United Nations headquarters
Watch as the Palestinian flag was raised at the United Nations headquarters in New York for the first time earlier today. Secretary general Ban Ki-moon, who was present at the ceremony, said it signals to the international community that "Palestinian statehood is achievable" http://gu.com/p/4cqg7/stw
