Isn't Israel's settler policy of recent decades purposely designed to undermine a two state solution?
Read "100 Year War on Palestine"
hmm... no. UN security council would never permit it.
Veto power is absurd.
oh I dont know about that, the UN has done a fairly passable job - it's been far more effective then the League of Nations that preceded it.
I'm not a huge fan of the UN, but I'm also convinced we would have had a nuclear war by now if it didn't exist to allow communication and mediation between the world's governments.
I like em because aside from the votes doing nothing functional it shows where countries allegiances truly lie.
Many Western countries got exposed for being controlled by the Zionist lobby when they didn't vote for the ceasefire.
Not much point in recognising the PA when it doesn't even rule over Gaza, is there? I mean, it should happen anyway, but probably limited effect on both Israel and Hamas...
I fully believe anyone that claims to support a 2 state solution but doesn't recognise pestine as a state just supports Israel but knows they can't advocate for genocide.
At this point recognition would serve to finalize the alienation of Palestinians from their chance to gain democratic rights over the government which authors most of the laws they have to live by in practicality
