Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu offered a heated response to the news that the United Kingdom, Canada and Australia had officially recognized the state of Palestine.
“I have a clear message to those leaders who recognize a Palestinian state after the terrible massacre on October 7: you are giving a huge reward to terrorism,” Netanyahu said in a statement. “And I have another message for you: it will not happen. A Palestinian state will not be established west of the Jordan River.”
He’s been saying it in English for decades, publicly for over two years, and everyone still pretending like a two state solution is anything.
None of us are free until Palestine is free, from the river to the sea.
We need to be a bit careful with “from the river to the sea” as to many in Israel, that is a call for Israel’s destruction.
It’s not Israel or Palestine that can exist. We want them both to exist, in peace. Angry at Israel’s genocide though we all are, few are calling for Israel to cease to exist. That’s what Israel is doing to Palestine.
