Thank you President Xi. In case people wonder Xi was rendered poor and suffered many of the depravities of the cultural revolution including the loss of 2 sisters. So I think he speaks from the heart and not just political expedience. No doubt however it is beneficial for China to RIGHTLY attack this evil policy.
Right wingers get weirder every day.No wonder. France is a terrorist muslim state.
Jordan and Israel are Palestinian states.Well done by France.
It is high time everyone recognized a Palestinian state and pressured Netanyahu to end this gross war that has gone on longer than necessary.
Hope Canada does as well.
I've been trying to pin down what, exactly, Macron intends to announce in Sept.Well done by France.

Its not at all vague if you bothered to read his statement.I've been trying to pin down what, exactly, Macron intends to announce in Sept.
It remains pretty vague.
I read his statement.Its not at all vague if you bothered to read his statement.
Exactly.France will join the majority of countries in the world that recognize the state of Palestine, presently under an illegal occupation by Israel and an order by the UN to end the occupation.
Why would you expect him to name the borders?I read his statement.
Exactly.
Quite vague.
He's not even committing to what version of "recognize the state of Palestine" he means.
Most likely "The 1967 borders" but didn't even say that, and won't commit to all the other problems that come with that.
Which is fine, actually.
Most people have left it as a vague "we will deal with all that later" statements.
I was curious, given that this is the first G7 country to do this, if he was going to lay down a stronger marker.
Doesn't look like it.
(Let's remember that he backed out of doing it in June.)
LOLWhy would you expect him to name the borders?
Not one single Israel supporter, you included, can even name the borders of Israel.
That will be up to the ICC, ICJ and UN.
Israel needs to be dismantled, its leaders put on trial and restitution paid for 75 years of occupation, apartheid and genocide.
As usual, you are here to criticize those standing against the genocide.
Various people have recognized different borders and capitols in their recognition.Why would you expect him to name the borders?
Not one single Israel supporter, you included, can even name the borders of Israel.
That will be up to the ICC, ICJ and UN.
So this must piss you off, since he is explicitly doing this to try and preserve a two-state solution, and you're advocating for the dismantling of Israel.Israel needs to be dismantled, its leaders put on trial and restitution paid for 75 years of occupation, apartheid and genocide.
When did I criticize him for standing against the genocide?As usual, you are here to criticize those standing against the genocide.
What bold proposal were you expecting?Various people have recognized different borders and capitols in their recognition.
And like I said, I wouldn't expect him to necessarily commit to it, I was wondering if he was trying something more bold.
As Germany was dismantled after the end of the nazi regime.So this must piss you off, since he is explicitly doing this to try and preserve a two-state solution, and you're advocating for the dismantling of Israel.
I'd argue that calling his statement vague and saying you doubt he'll hold to it is criticizing him and his actions.When did I criticize him for standing against the genocide?
And yes, the whole West Bank settler situation is one of those things that I would have been intrigued if he addressed.
I wasn't.What bold proposal were you expecting?
Broken into 4 zones occupied by different forces?As Germany was dismantled after the end of the nazi regime.
Of course you would.I'd argue that calling his statement vague and saying you doubt he'll hold to it is criticizing him and his actions.
It sounded more like you were attempting to belittle the announcement.I wasn't.
I was wondering if he was going to do one.
My preference is that it go through the ICJ, ICC and UN and they rule and decide, along with fair restitution.Broken into 4 zones occupied by different forces?
Split down the middle with a wall?
Do you have a preference?
Rules based governance and human rights, not Wilhoit conservatism.Of course you would.
Anything other than unreserved praise for whatever you think is good at that moment is Zionism.
The more that recognize the state of Palestine the more pressure to end the genocide and occupation.What do you think of Belgium I wonder.
Of course it did.It sounded more like you were attempting to belittle the announcement.
So you want the ICJ to break up Israel and put it under someone's control?My preference is that it go through the ICJ, ICC and UN and they rule and decide, along with fair restitution.
A return to rules based governance would be good for the planet.
So this waffling by them must be frustrating.The more that recognize the state of Palestine the more pressure to end the genocide and occupation.
