This is a very important development in the middle east and has broader implications. For starters, this move immediately puts pressure on other western nations, specifically the United States, to also recognize a Palestinian state. The humanitarian crisis that is occurring in Gaza has been unignorable, especially in the past year. In my eyes, France has now made it to where countries, at least in the eyes of the masses, can either oppose the ethnic cleansing or be complicit through their silence. Will be very interesting to see what developments come from this within the near future.

The other thing that I wanted to touch on in this post was the Israeli response to this declaration. Here's what Netanyahu had to say in an official statement:

"We strongly condemn President Macron’s decision to recognize a Palestinian state next to Tel Aviv in the wake of the October 7 massacre. Such a move rewards terror and risks creating another Iranian proxy, just as Gaza became.

A Palestinian state in these conditions would be a launch pad to annihilate Israel — not to live in peace beside it. Let’s be clear: the Palestinians do not seek a state alongside Israel; they seek a state instead of Israel."
- Benjamin Netanyahu via X

From this statement alone, I derive some key takeaways. First, this just confirms what we already all know: the Israelis do not see a two-state solution as an option. The condemnation means that they do not accept a world where a Palestinian state exists. Furthermore, they want to annex Gaza and the West Bank to ensure that a Palestinian state will not exist. The justification for them to do this is that they "have the right to exist" and the "right to defend themselves." Well, logically, if a country wants the right to exist, then it would be justified under that pretext to take out every country that poses a threat. Funny enough that's exactly what they have been doing to every Arab country in the region since 1948, that is with US backing of course.

Speaking of annexation, the Knesset just passed a resolution which would accelerate the process of them annexing the West Bank.

Following a long debate in the plenum, the Knesset approved a declaratory resolution on Wednesday in support of “applying Israeli sovereignty to Judea, Samaria, and the Jordan Valley.”

The vote passed by a large margin, 71-13...

Here is another article so you can read what the i̶n̶s̶a̶n̶e mentally stable Jews running Israel have to say about Macron's decision:

Secondly, he invokes the October 7th narrative. Whenever you see an Israeli bring up this date, it is their attempt at imposing atrocity propaganda to the public. There are people who still synonymize "babies in ovens" and "beheaded babies" with this day, even though that never happened. So, mentioning this is his way of saying "if Palestine has a state, then they will do this again!". He affirms this by saying that they would seek to annihilate Israel in the next line. This also implies that Macron, by recognizing a Palestinian state, is assisting in the annihilation of Israel. I'm not a fan of Macron but I pray for his safety since people with this distinction haven't fared well historically.

I was going to go into more detail, but figured I would just lay out some of my thoughts on the manner.

Good first precis of the events.

To anyone impartial and or intelligent it is quite clear, and has been for many decades, that israel wants to expel, kill or displace all Palestinians and has done so since before it was a formal country. Declaring Palestine a state gives it protection, status and validation. All of which are 100% good in my book.

If Palestine can really become a state it can build a wall around it and capitalise on inward investment and development from the world bank and UN etc.

What is not in doubt is that the many shyster, thieves and crooks in israel and its main ally, the US, will endeavour to a) make this statehood never happen and b) protect israel while it completes the job of total scorched earth on Gaza and then displaces all in the West Bank. Evil personified.

The only 'good' news is that israel is crap and forward thinking and will soon reap the whirlwind of rebellion against it that is sure to come. Anti-semitism will rise and be genuine and nasty. I am sure there are many good jews around the world who don't agree with what israel does but they will all be tarred with the same brush.
