“[..] it's making a #legal #declaration that Israel's occupation is now an #invasion of a #sovereign #state and this transforms everything. Bombing Gaza becomes an act of war as opposed to 'counter-terrorism’”

Belgium's grand plan: wave a magic wand at decades of #Middle #East #chaos by "recognizing" #Palestine at the UN, as if the world was just waiting for Brussels to weigh in! Meanwhile, Israel trembles in its boots at the thought of Belgian #sanctions, surely the geopolitical equivalent of a sternly worded email.

#Somaliland's resilience deserves #Recognition. Rising from #genocide, building #Democracy, & standing by the #USA, it's a #StrategicPartner. It's time for #Washington & #TelAviv to see Somaliland's strength, not reward failure elsewhere.

#China's "#WolfDiplomacy" in the #HornOfAfrica may be backfiring, strengthening the case for #Somaliland's #Recognition. @SenTedCruz cites #Beijing's heavy-handed tactics as proof of SL's strategic value amid #GreatPower competition. #Geopolitics

Expert says recognition of Palestinian state will not change things in short term http://newsfeed.facilit8.network/TMDF9F #Palestine #MiddleEastPolitics #Statehood #Recognition #InternationalRelations

Peer Pressure

A letter, signed by 40 peers, explains that the recognition of the territory could break the terms laid out for statehood in the Montevideo Convention

‘Could’ is the key word here. Three points, The Lawyers for Israel caucus would say that; It hasn’t stopped most countries in the UN; The same group are curiously quiet about Israel’s law breaking in Gaza and the West Bank.
