Although Germany does not consider Palestine a country, a majority of the world’s states — 139 out of a total of 193 — at the United Nations do. What’s significant this time, though, is that recognition is apparently being reconsidered by the US, a country that has previously vetoed almost every attempt to make Palestine a country.
The UK also seems to be thinking about it even though in the past, the country has been just as opposed to the move as the US.
Isn’t Israel’s settler policy of recent decades purposely designed to undermine a two state solution?
