    Why “in September”? Surely this is something that once you’ve decided you’re going to do it, you’re going to do it. Just…like, do it?

    while this is welcoming news during this atrocious time of the zionist genocidal assault against Palestinians, I am curious of the details. Is this 1967 borders? What about the facts on the ground that zionism has created to make a two state model incapable?

    Do we really want to normalize having a new Palestine state existing in a quasi-like existence next to this genocidal state? How far will that go? Will AOC and others say Palestine has the right to defend itself and arm it with iron dome?

    Furthermore Israel should not be off the hook in the important work of dismantling colonial regimes.

    The only possible way forward is to equalize existence for all peoples on the lands, irrespective of their religion, ethnicity, or who they are. Ethno-nationalist state models like zionism deserve the trashbin of history and I dare any one upholding liberal values to defend an ethno-nationalist state now or in the future, but we all know they’ve done an trash job in the past.

      This is literally just talk (promise) about a bunch of other talk (recognition). While talk is better than silence, nothing of substance is happening yet. They still trade with Israel, including some weapons.

      To placate people with promise but not do it, Macron is one of those politicians that you can easily tell when he’s lying - when his mouth moves
