YouTube video by Adam Schwarz - Political Commentator UK recognising Palestinian state is both 'anti-Hamas and anti-Netanyahu'

The UK recognising a Palestinian state on the basis of a two-state solution does not "reward" Hamas.

It is a direct contradiction of Hamas and Netanyahu's competing visions for a one-state solution and an attempt to preserve the only model that could achieve peace.

Good to discuss on i24News.

The West has massive economic and military leverage over Israel that it should be willing to yield to change policy.

Fortunately, I strongly suspect the UK and other countries won't consider some ambiguous and performative Israeli govt statement about wanting peace with Palestinians to be anywhere near satisfactory.

Because simply recognising a Palestinian state won't produce a Palestinian state. Circumstances must actually change on the ground for it to happen. And the best way that occurs is for Israel to recommit to a two-state solution. So it's worth using it as leverage to attempt the optimal outcome.

It's a good tactic to encourage Israeli policy change. Hopefully other European countries do the same. It's worth a go, even if ultimately futile. And Starmer's statement made it pretty clear that 'lip service' to a two-state solution wouldn't cut it.

I don't think that would be necessary. Israel couldn't survive without Western military and economic trade and integration, so the West should use that as leverage to force a policy outcome.

The West needs to inform Israel that it must either restart a process towards a viable two-state solution or have a solution forced upon it. If Israel chooses the latter, the West must force a full Israeli withdrawal from Gaza & West Bank and hand over security authority to an international force.

Correct decision for the UK to recognise a Palestinian State in September unless Israel commits to a two-state solution.

But recognition alone won't bring peace.

The only route is for a long-term international force to replace the IDF in Gaza & West Bank to supervise & protect a Palestinian State.

Haha fair comment!

Trump on Ghislaine Maxwell in July 2020:

"I just wish her well".

It's *almost* like he knew he might one day need her help.

WSJ: Trump sent Epstein a cryptic birthday message.

Trump: I’m suing you to shut you up!

WSJ: Trump is in the Epstein files.

Not only has Gabbard disregarded official US intelligence conclusions on Russian interference in 2016, she's now actively parroting disinformation from that Russian interference campaign as evidence against Hillary Clinton.

This is everything that was feared about Gabbard being DNI.

Trump is referring to Gabbard's dossier that claimed Obama officials “manufactured” intel to implicate him in Russian collusion.

A 2017 Intel Community Assessment already debunked this. It concluded Russia did attempt to interfere to help Trump in 2016, but found no evidence of an Obama conspiracy.

Trump:

"We found absolute... irrefutable proof that Obama was seditious. Obama was trying to lead a coup. And it was with Hillary Clinton."

You'll be shocked to know Trump went off on this rant about prosecuting Obama and Democrats in response to a question about Epstein.

Trump: "After what they did to me... It's time to go after people. Obama has been caught directly."

Reporter: Who should the Justice Dept. target?

Trump: "President Obama. He started it. And Biden was there with him."

Another protest outside the hotel is planned for Thursday and children are being actively encouraged to attend on the ‘Epping Says NO’ Facebook organising group - even after the last two protests turned violent.

And they claim the protest is to “Protect our kids”.

Farage says Epping far-right hotel rioters were "genuinely concerned families".

Here are the "families" he was referring to.

Two critical facts:

1. Israel should not militarily occupy nor be trusted to act in Palestinian territories.
2. Palestinian self-determination without third-party security supervision will destabilise peace via attacks on Israel.

Solution = An international force in Gaza/WB to replace the IDF.

I have long believed that long-term international security supervision of Gaza and the West Bank is the only route towards achieving sustainable peace and a Palestinian State. I'm astounded that there's virtually no discussion of it when, to my mind, it's the only way to stop this endless bloodbath.

A coalition of Western & Arab states should have told Israel long ago that its right to act in Gaza has ended and that they will take responsibility for security with an international force.

Tragically that won't happen because they don't care about Palestinian lives enough to do what's necessary.

Wow, mystery finally solved! Great detective skills, thanks!

I only discovered this about five years later and still have no idea what he’s referring to.

Can Trump Be Sold on Supporting Ukraine? A changeable president seems to be turning against Putin.

It's time for Ukraine’s allies to lobby Trump.

His frustration with Putin and willingness to send American weapons, albiet with a $ caveat, have created space to impress on the President what US stands to lose in Europe
