dermmy: While the recognition is welcomed by everyone who stand on the side of humanity the question is will Israel listen and stop the genocide and displacement? Israel thinks it can do whatever it wants as long as she has US backing, for Netanyahu it is US backing that matters. If all these states recognising can begin opening consulate in Palestine let's see if Netanyahu will order its air forces to bomb those consulates.
Aside this recognition we need action to back it up. Action is what the world wants to see next. Exactly. |

shoodboi2: It is called doxxing and Ibime is well known for it on this forum. I have a list of people he has doxxed on this forum over the years. He was trying to do the same to me too, which prompted me to start my investigations on him. It won't be bad if he also gets doxxed, would it? He is only receiving what he has been giving to others. It's nothing serious or personal. Okay. But we should be careful not to allow the madness of others to drive us mad also. |

WriteerNg: ⚡King of Malaysia cancels purchase of US UH-60 Black Hawks, calling them ‘flying coffins’.
In a public statement delivered during a military parade in the Southeast Asia nation, Sultan Ibrahim Iskandar, the 17th king of Malaysia, said that a plan by the nation’s military to buy four Black Hawks — all roughly 30-year-old former U.S. Army helicopters — was a bad idea.
“Do we want to put our pilots in a ‘flying coffin?’” Sultan Ibrahim asked, according to the Malay-language daily paper Utusan Malaysia. This is called finishing. PS. Is that the Iskander that has been hammering Ukraine mercilessly? When did he become a king?  |

LordAdam16: Russia already recognizes Palestine.
Russia, China, and the Axis are waiting for a global consensus to take action against Israel. Embargoes, sanctions, boycotts... That said, many are criticizing China especially for not unilaterally leading a charge to severely curtail if not cease economic links with Israel. I sympathize with this viewpoint, but it is sort of a weird ask when the buff**ns in Turkey, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, UAE are still trading with Israel.
When you think about it, it is completely bonkers that the EU will introduce sanctions against Israel before the Arabs in the Gulf. -Lord I predict. Once that global consensus is received, the rest of the world led by the axis will act unilaterally over Gaza. After all, four out of the five UNPSC members have now recognized Palestine as a state. They can influence others to take actions. They have the numbers now, with 157 states recognitions. The only thing lacking is, like you said, s global consensus to take action against the Yahooboy in Tel Aviv. Methinks this action would start from Europe in the form of a boycott. The pressure is already mounting to suspend Israel from anything European and world based sporting events. Na from clap dem take dey enter dance. Netanyahoo is doing Israel a great job of securing global hatred. |

dermmy: Uncle Sam keeps moving its ADs around all the time like person wey no know peace. Pikin wey talk say him mama no go rest himself no go rest.  It's because they're so overspread and don't have much ADs to spare. The US as it is right now cannot fight two major wars at the same time, something it was previously designed to do. They will run out of missiles in less than a week.
The reality of the Iran/Israel 12D war is quite telling.
Hence, a conventional war with the likes of China and Russia bar nukes and direct allied support is certified suicide. |

Make we dey collect the useless recognitions dey go. Sinwar's triumph!
-Lord Na fool go call those recognitions useless. When states, especially those of renown geopolitical and global standings recognizes another group as a state, that newly recognized state starts getting the "state actor" treatment. This means diplomatic dealings. Bilateral dealings. Economic support and political support. This will eventually end up weakening Israel's level of support in geopolitical groupings and the global community setup. This is why the US was trying very hard to dissuade these recognitions. |

LordAdam16: There's a really delicate dynamism playing out here.
The Saudis and Emiratis (alongside the chihuahuas of Bahrain, Kuwait, and Oman) are tied to their adventures in Yemen and Sudan (and partly in Libya). Adventures that required and still require huge assistance from the US and Israel. They are not enthusiastic about flushing all their efforts costing billions of dollars down the drain for Qatar. Because no one else, literally no one else on the planet, wants anything to do with their repulsive hegemonic wars.
Everyone else, bar Morocco, has demanded very harsh consequences. From Algeria to Malaysia. As this is a joint Arab League - Organization of Islamic States summit. But there is a creeping realization that if the Gulf is not interested in solidarity between themselves because of inanities, then it's a waiting game until they are wrecked badly again.
The biggest unintended consequence of this attack on Qatar is that the Gulf had been planning to repeat Lebanon in Yemen. Where they'd use the Houthi-Israel conflict as an opportunity to pursue their own goals. They've been planning an offensive, rearming their lemmings in Yemen, and all of that is now in question. I am sure the Houthis were high-fiving each other when they saw the smoke in Doha.
-Lord I have said it. The Doha attack is a blessing and a curse in disguise. First, it puts Israel directly on the crosshairs of hatred from across the western civilization. That is growing by the day. Secondly, it serves as a recalibrator on the geopolitical psychic of the Arab states. Now they'd be forced to reevaluate their priorities, reassess their commitment and redrawn objectives. Why? Because they value their fat and luxury life and comfort and knew they could be the next target for the mad man in Tel Aviv. Like photo, their eyes don they open small small. |
