Norway, Ireland and Spain say they will recognize a Palestinian state

Norway, Ireland and Spain say they will recognize a Palestinian state. The historic but largely symbolic move further deepens Israel’s isolation more than seven months into its grinding war against Hamas in Gaza. Israel immediately denounced Wednesday's decisions and recalled its ambassadors to the three countries.

The comments 😂 keep crying, free palestine.🇸🇦

[ligayamatira]

We Wish that Both South Korea and Japan will follow suit to recognized Palestine as Independent and sovereign state🇯🇵🇰🇷🇵🇸

[dyukarapandiin]

Why Biden always ignoring state of Palestine

[Erushisu]

first of all, who actually cares what they say?
second, what state are they talking about? how does it look like?

[frederiquemartin]

We should recognize Catalonia as a free state. Shame on these 3 countries who are recognizing Palestine without demanding the release of hostages. They make me sick

Previously I was skeptical of Spain regarding the massacre committed by Queen Isabella in 1492. However, in 1976 Islam was accepted in Spain. And now supports Palestinian independence. Norway also previously legalized burning Korans. Now giving positive hope to Muslims by supporting Palestinian independence. And Ireland is a true friend of Muslims. This happened when there was a famine during the Ottoman Empire. And proven to support an independent Palestine

There is no Palestinian state, are they ready to fight Israel for one.

[HandcupOfficial_V]

I'm glad I am neutral in this conflict. It's a waste of time getting stressed out over what country should stay or go.

[hahhsshs]

Norway cannot do much other than condemn Benjamin Netanyahu's actions because the peace agreement or charter between Israel and Palestine was previously inaugurated in Norway.If Norway does not do this, it will damage Norway's good name and be considered betraying the international legal charter, namely the ICC

[Brewangelsfelafelshnorrer]

Well of course Ireland and Norway are in favor of a 2 state solution

[Hargsehm]

They have their state it's called GAZA.

[jaimec.]

Congratulations to those country's for having the valor of recognizing and supporting the creation of a Palestinian state.

[samgreen]

Are they recognizing a two state solution or are they saying there’s only a Palestinian state and Israel is not legitimate?

[rustler]

It's quite striking that these countries do NOT recognize Taiwan as a state, though it is a democratic Chinese state. Their business interests with the PRC are too important for them. This shows you where their loyalties (or lack thereof) lie.

[matthewmic]

What a slap in the face of the people of Catalonia, Taiwan, Tibet and so many others who have been fighting for independence and recognition without committing terrorist attacks

[sharodcoulson]

There we go 3 countries that should be willing to take Palestinian refugees.

[Owenfam]

It is Palestinian land legally no matter who says what period stick to the law not propoganda

[lm]

Palestinian state would be a direct continuation of Al Hussaini's nazi project, which makes it irresistable for Norway if WW2 is any guide.

[howdareu]

They support a Palestinians state . . . ok take in Palestinian refugees then

[susankennett]

Let's send some of the Palestinians to their country, let them open their doors. No one will give up their land or asked to. Turkey, Iran, Egypt? Why is no one else willing to take Palestinians? Israel is a tiny country. Why should they give up their land?
