Keir Starmer has announced that the UK will recognise the state of Palestine in September, citing conditions that are almost impossible for the current Israeli government to meet.
Netanyahu doesn’t want a two-state solution and his response was to lash out at Starmer and the UK in an extraordinary rebuke for a close ally.
Many supporters of Israel are criticising Starmer for imposing conditions on Israel but not Hamas. But giving conditions to Hamas in exchange for statehood would recognise Hamas as part of the future of Palestine.
