Although Germany does not consider Palestine a country, a majority of the world’s states — 139 out of a total of 193 — at the United Nations do. What’s significant this time, though, is that recognition is apparently being reconsidered by the US, a country that has previously vetoed almost every attempt to make Palestine a country.
The UK also seems to be thinking about it even though in the past, the country has been just as opposed to the move as the US.

Wow that is a dumb article, even for a medium article. It seems confused about why indigenous people would refuse a settler colony in the middle of their homeland. That’s like saying the Native Americans refused a two state solution with the US while colonists were moving in and setting up shop. You think if a commission of UK and the France decided to give 1/3 of Texas to the Mexicans without even having any Texans in the commission that Texas would just be cool with it? No, they’d fight it to the last man, even if they weren’t as oppressed as Palestinians in Gaza.
EDIT: Also the 2000 Camp David Summit was extremely one-sided, purposefully so. Even a negotiator from the Clinton said admitted it was more of Israel’s fault than the Palestinians. In 2006, Shlomo Ben-Ami, then foreign minister of Israel, stated on Democracy Now! that “Camp David was not the missed opportunity for the Palestinians, and if I were a Palestinian I would have rejected Camp David, as well. This is something I put in the book. But Taba is the problem. The Clinton parameters are the problem”.
I couldn’t read the last one but it as also probably terrible and not well researched.
how is any palestinian nation meant to negotiate with zionist israel? this isnt something we are going to solve for them.
