The Shocking Decision: Legitimizing Terrorism?
Can you believe it? Norway, Spain, and Ireland just recognized Palestine as a state. What’s next? This move is not just surprising; it’s also deeply concerning. These countries are essentially legitimizing terrorism by recognizing Palestine under current circumstances.
The Reality of Palestinian Support for Terrorism
72% of Palestinians supported the October 7th attack, which involved thousands and left 128 hostages in captivity. This is who these countries are recognizing. By acknowledging Palestine as a state, Norway, Spain, and Ireland are sending a dangerous message: terrorism pays. They are not standing with the Palestinian people; they are standing with Hamas, a group notorious for its brutal treatment of its own people and its rejection of peace with Israel.
Hamas’s True Intentions
Just look at what Hamas does to its own people who dare to protest. The slogan “Free Palestine from The River To The Sea” is not a call for peace; it’s a call for the complete destruction of Israel. Palestinians have rejected every peace offer that includes the existence of Israel because they don’t want peace; they want Israel gone.
The Palestinian Authority’s Use of International Aid
The Palestinian Authority uses international aid to pay salaries to terrorists who attack Israelis. Is this who you want to legitimize? The Palestinian education system teaches children to hate and kill Jews. Recognizing such a state endorses this indoctrination.
Hypocrisy in European Politics
Spain won’t give Catalonia independence but calls for Palestinian independence. This is hypocritical, especially when Catalans protested and Spanish police knew very well how to handle them. Double standards are at play here. Should Israel recognize Catalonia? The fact remains, that Jordan is essentially Palestine, and Palestine is Jordan. Three million Palestinians are in Jordan, and one in five Jordanians are Palestinians.
The Historical Context and Misconceptions
There has never been a Palestinian state in history. This land has been home to Jews for millennia; we’re not occupiers, we’re the rightful owners. The West is naive to think that recognizing Palestine would lead to stability and peace. The Middle East doesn’t work like Europe; we’re talking about a region where some justify rape as resistance.
The Consequences of Recognizing Palestine
Recognizing a terrorist state isn’t just misguided; it’s dangerous. You’re sending the message that terrorism pays off. Israel is a beacon of democracy and stability in the Middle East. Instead of undermining it, the world should support it. Israel isn’t just a country; it’s a beacon of hope, a testament to resilience, and on the front line in the fight against terrorism.
A Betrayal of Values
Recognizing Palestine under these circumstances is a slap in the face to every victim of terrorism. It’s a betrayal of the values we hold dear. Let’s stand with the real victims here: the Israelis and Palestinians who want peace, not terror. We need to support those who genuinely seek peace and reject those who promote violence and hatred.
Conclusion: Standing with the Right Side of History
Norway, Spain, and Ireland need to wake up and realize the gravity of their decision. Recognizing Palestine as a state under current conditions is not a step toward peace; it’s a step toward further conflict. Let’s stand with Israel, a country that embodies democracy and stability in a region plagued by terrorism. Supporting Israel is supporting the values of peace, freedom, and human dignity
