Righteousness2:
Yoav Gallant
Former Minister of Defense of ISRAEL:

There will never be a palestinian state.

Starmer, the British Mandate ended 77 years ago. You should focus on the Islamist surge in the UK, not on ISRAEL.

The islamist truly hold UK, France, Australia, etc hostage. Israel na their antidote.

The same UK made it possible to create the state of Israel
What if they decide to write another Balfour declaration that now states the land belong to a people before the Jews were sent packing from Europe
Can Israel fight Britain, France and Australia?
Even with US support they can't declare war on those nations

When you overdo things you lose legitimacy to even claim self defense, this is where Israel is headed
And not even the US can save it from its self imposed calamities

During their period of greatest influence, the British took control of the region and issued that statement.

Their actions in 1917 essentially showed support for Israel's historical claims, although this had less impact than the 1948 United Nations declaration recognizing Israel as a sovereign state.

Consequently, the United States, as the current global power, continues to impede the establishment of a Palestinian state within the UN, as declarations alone are ineffective without UN ratification.

It is akin to suggesting that the United Kingdom could now reverse Lord Lugard's actions; however, it is too late, as Israel, like Nigeria, is now a sovereign nation.
