Israel never respected a single goddamn internationsl law. Ot’s not the UN who is going to stop that. It’s members countries who should do russian level sanctions on israel and end trade deals with them. Stop selling and buying military equipments to israel

I agree, collectively Global Governments should be harder on Israel.

That does not mean that official recognition is not a step towards that goal, or an unimportant issue.

My issue is canada , france and uk ulterior motives and not the action of recognizing Palestine as a state

For France, this roadmap should guarantee Israel’s security and regional integration as well as meet the the legitimate aspiration of the Palestinians to have their own State. We must therefore build a robust and credible framework for the “day after” in Gaza: work to disarm and sideline Hamas, which should no longer be a threat to Israel, establish credible governance and reform the Palestinian Authority. The United Nations and its agencies have an important role to play in this process.

France is determined to advance the implementation of the Two-State solution

In June, France and Saudi Arabia will co-chair the International Conference for the Peaceful Settlement of the Palestinian Question and the Implementation of the Two-State Solution.

Look at how France position is about Palestinians state. No acknowledging of the occupation, preceding the occupier security over the occupied security . Ask for Palestinians to disarms without any security guarantees.

I also don’t trust the Palestinian authority all they kept doing is crushing all oppositions, collaborate with Israel while doing nothing to protect Palestinians against settler violence . An election is needed for the Palestinian authority that represent the real will of the west bankers

The recognition should be unconditional and be transparent about what kind of pressure should be imposed on Israel who refuse any Palestinians state

Fighting didn’t break out between Israel and Iran. Israel attacked Iran as a proxy for the USA.

Up until Israel attacked Iran directly Israel had been fighting Iranian proxies, and repelling Iranian rockets.

It is quite obvious that Israel and the US coordinated the attacks against Iran, but they are long standing enemies, and “fighting broke out between Israel and Iran” is objectively accurate because they are not officially at war.

As of March 2025, the State of Palestine is recognized as a sovereign state by 147 of the 193 member states of the United Nations, or just over 75% of all UN members.

A plurality stands with the people of Palestine.

What’s the disagreement?

At this point, it should be clear that mirroring the US’s stance won’t get Canada any benefits anymore. So we should just drop the appeasement and speak for world order instead of for genocide.

Probably not.

I was thinking along the same lines but then I thought about other neighbouring countries like Lebanon. Being recognized states didn’t stop Israel from doing whay they did to them. Not saying there’s no difference, I’m just not sure what the practical difference is. I’m probably ignorant.

About damn time. Personally I’d like to see the UN plan from 1947 put into place, but I doubt that will ever happen. Also the UN Security Council must not have control over Jerusalem. Period. Full stop. Needs to be the General Assembly or another body.

This would be great if they did it. However, Canada is still providing weapons or vital weapons parts that are being funneled to Israel through US trade. We are still providing weapons to Israel and just taking their word for it that they aren’t being used for murder. Words mean nothing if we continue to provide the means for genocide.

Is as Europe and the US, despite their supposed protestations.

But Israel are close to Christianity, so they are the good guys, as per human logic for thousands of years.
