Israel’s foreign minister branded a recent international push to recognise Palestinian statehood a “mistake” on Sunday and warned it could trigger an unspecified unilateral response, after reports that Israel plans to annex parts of the occupied West Bank.
Several countries, including France and Britain, have pledged to recognise a Palestinian state on the sidelines of the 80th UN General Assembly this month.
It is existential that the powers that enabled Israel to be insulated sever such a relationship with Israel or be ousted from power by internal unrest. That pattern is developing all over the world, people in general don’t want genocide to happen it turns out.
