@cbsnews: The United Kingdom will recognize Palestine as a state unless Israel takes "substantive steps" to end the "appalling situation in Gaza," Britain's Prime Minister Keir Starmer said Tuesday. Starmer said the U.K. will recognize Palestine as a state at the United Nations General Assembly in September unless Israel takes a number of steps — including the establishment of a ceasefire in Gaza, a commitment to halting the annexation of territory in the West Bank, and a pledge to work towards a peace process involving a two-state solution. "Meanwhile, our message to the terrorists of Hamas is unchanged and unequivocal. They must immediately release all of the hostages, sign up to a ceasefire, disarm and accept that they will play no part in the government of Gaza," Starmer added. #unitedkingdom #london #starmer #gaza #israel

Starving human beings for political gain is evil. The skin and bones of children men and women, will live in our minds forever. Atrocities like these are purely evil.

So they start the war, take hostages, refuse to give the hostages back, break the first ceasefire and keep fighting despite the country being in shambles while still holding onto hostages and the british pm is rewarding them with statehood? This will create less war?

So the guilt is setting in. They should have done something earlier to prevent this from happening

Such a weird threat. I mean even mentioning it is admitting you think they should be recognized but putting a condition on it is wild. That’s also like saying we won’t do anything except fake our own bargaining chip.

Don’t be fooled he’s playing politics because Jeremy Corbyn and Zarah Sultana have announced a new party. He knows he’s going to lose Labour voters. And if he were genuine in his intentions, why attach conditions?

For everyone commenting “unless??” It’s recognizing their legitimacy is the first step to going to literal war for them. So it’s a threat UNLESS they stop.
