Israel's Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich, meanwhile, called for immediate punishment for the Palestinian Authority and expanded settlement construction in the Occupied West Bank as a response.

This is unhinged, wanting to punish the PA for other countries recognizing Palestine.

    Wait! Vatican recognized Palestine?!?

    Either way if what Spain said is true and Europe becomes green as well, it would be pretty much US, Australia and Israel to not recognize Palestine

    Obligatory note for all the "Christians should support Israel" crowd. The Israeli minister of Security said, that Christians should be spit on. When Christians want to pray for Easter in the Church of the holy sepulcher, Israeli security forces are also harassing and attacking them. Israel is not only an ethnostate, it is also founded on religious and race supremacy, where white european/american Jews are on the top of the hierarchy and anyone else will face discrimination.

    Maybe we should sanction them.

    Yeah. Probably.

    Russia threatened "severe consequences" for sanctions and supporting Ukraine.

    Israel is not doing itself any favours threatening other countries.

    So their punishment to other countries for recognising Palestine is to intensify their Palestinian genocide?

    How can anyone see this and not realise that this whole thing was never about Hamas, they were just an excuse to finally get the ball rolling.

    So Israel is just being a pariah of the world as usual. Nothing new.

    As of now Slovenia, Spain, Norway, Ireland, Malta, Trinidad and Tobago have announced they will soon start recognizing the state of Palestine. That brings the number of countries that recognize the state of Palestine to around 150 countries out of 193 countries in the UN.

    Not only that but around four fifths of the world population lives in these countries. So an overwhelming majority both in the UN and on a population scale recognize them.

    With that being said, let's go Israel. Be more of a pariah than you already are. Close yourself off from all these countries. Shoot yourself in the foot.

    So they are going with North Korea theory of foreign of relations. That’s a bold strategy, Cotton. Let’s see if it pays off for them.

    Israel's foreign minister Israel Katz said in a public statement that the move to recognize Palestine was a "distorted step" by the countries

    Israel's National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir also condemned the move Wednesday and said the response from Israel would be to intensify its operations in Gaza—where the ICC chief prosecutor this week alleged war crimes by Israeli forces have taken place—even further. In his remarks, Ben-Gvir called for a "root treatment" for the city of Rafah, where hundreds of thousands of civilians have fled but many still remain with nowhere go.

    That old right-wing refrain: "Look what you made me do!"

    Can they just shut the fuck up already and end their war? They're just firing wildly and killing Palestinian civilians, hostage Israeli civilians, and even themselves! Occasionally they're getting a member of Hamas.

    Just fucking throw in the towel and take the L. Part of me this at this point that Netanyahu is partially prolonging the war because he wants Democrats to be divided and Trump to win so he has an even friendlier US.

    Why do the good die young, and the evil live forever?
