Palestine #OsloAccord
1 of 3
"At Israel’s insistence...the Oslo accords carefully avoided any mention of the ultimate destination of this process"
"The Israeli leader of the time, Yitzhak Rabin, told the Israeli parliament that his vision was not of a state but of “an entity which is less than a state”
Rabin was assassinated. Netanyahu replaced him "on a mandate to stop the Oslo process in its tracks"
And now Tony Blair may be appointed as governor of Gaza.

Now several Western countries recognise a Palestinian state, because “such recognition is now relatively cost-free”. According to Starmer, it’s not a sovereign state, much less than that:
• Elections in Palestine will need Israel’s permission
• School curriculum approved by Israel
• The PA will not compensate people Israel calls relatives of Hamas, no compensations to anybody

Ali Abunimah:
They've recognized a concentration camp, not a state.

Israelis keep annexing territory, so that there will be no Palestine state anyway. And no accountability for Israel.
For Starmer “Recognition is a giant deflection exercise, an image-laundering operation”
@NotImpressed Same for all countries calling for a 2 state solution. They should go back to the '48 partition, and remove anyone who is Not Palestinian, from the Palestine of '48. Those who have destroyed buildings, farms, and industries, in That Palestine have to make restitution (or their relatives, if those earlier Israelis are deceased).
UK, and USA, and any other nation involved in the creating of Israel...and the subsequent habit of allowing Israel to annex territory from Israel, to this present day...also must make reparation. The Arab world - which has sat back and allowed the wholesale slaughter of Palestinians - must protect those who are left, and ensure right of return for those previously displaced. @palestine
