Israel-Hamas Latest: Spain, Norway and Ireland to recognize Palestinian state

- (ASSOCIATED PRESS) Norway, Ireland and Spain said on Wednesday they are recognizing a Palestinian state, in a historic but largely symbolic move that deepens Israel’s isolation more than seven months into its grinding war against Hamas in Gaza.
The announcements came as the chief prosecutor of the International Criminal Court is seeking arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his defense minister and the International Court of Justice is considering allegations of genocide that Israel has strenuously denied.
Palestinians welcomed the announcements as an affirmation of their decades-long quest for statehood in east Jerusalem, the West Bank and the Gaza Strip - territories Israel seized in the 1967 Mideast war and still controls.
Israel recalled its ambassadors to the three countries and summoned their envoys, accusing the Europeans of rewarding the militant Hamas group for its Oct. 7 attack that triggered the war.
Netanyahu's government, which is opposed to Palestinian statehood, says the conflict can only be resolved through direct negotiations, which last collapsed over 15 years ago.
As if to underline the point, Israel's far-right National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir paid a provocative visit Wednesday to a flashpoint holy site in Jerusalem sacred to Jews and Muslims in a move that could escalate tensions across the region.
Ben-Gvir said the visit was a response to the move by the three European countries. “We will not even allow a statement about a Palestinian state,” he said. The Al-Aqsa mosque compound is the third holiest site in Islam, and the hilltop on which it stands is the holiest site for Jews, who refer to it as the Temple Mount.

The US needs to follow suit!
No we don't. Look at Europe if you want to see what hellhole countries Islam has made.
Hahah good luck with that AIPAC won’t let that happen.
If America followed suit they would also have to admit that they are complicit in genocide also
Thank you Norway 🇳🇴 , Ireland 🇮🇪 , Spain 🇪🇸 for recognition of Palestine 🇵🇸 State .
Why does anyone think Hamas would stop its ambitions of destroying Israel?
Do they not understand the Islamic “Taqiyya appears in Sura 3:28:"?
“Let not the believers take the unbelievers for friends; and whoever does this, shall have nothing to do with Allâh in any matter; unless you do this to protect yourselves from the unbelievers. Thus Allâh cautions you to have reverence only for him. To Allâh is destiny.”
[Translation.]
Regarding 3:28, Ibn Kathir writes, “… believers who in some areas or times fear for their safety from the disbelievers… are allowed to show friendship to the disbelievers outwardly, but never inwardly.” Ibn Kafthir quotes Muhammad‘s companion, Abu Ad-Darda’, who said “we smile in the face of some people although our hearts curse them"
