The Spanish, Irish & Norwegian govts announced Wed that they would recognize a #Palestinian state, saying there would be no #peace in the #MiddleEast w/o it.
Israel denounced the move as giving aid to its enemy #Hamas.
The coordinated announcements are purely symbolic — but not w/o some power.
In response, Israeli Foreign Minister Israel Katz ordered the immediate recall of the Israeli ambassadors to #Spain, #Ireland & #Norway. “I am sending a clear message today: #Israel will not be complacent against those who undermine its sovereignty & endanger its #security.”
The #UnitedStates govt reiterated its position that recognizing a #PalestinianState was premature & must be the result of direct negotiations between Israel & the #Palestinians.
#Oldest#Chinese restaurant in #UnitedStates is in #Butte#Montana. The one-time mining boom town is atop the Continental Divide about 200 miles south of the Canadian border. ..about as far from a traditional #Chinatown as you can get. Established in 1911 by Tam Kwong Yee and his business partner, Hum Yow -- both 1st-generation #ChineseAmericans -- #PekinNoodleParlor occupies a nondescript brick building on the only remaining block of what was once a bustling Chinatown.
#Texas is no longer a part of the #UnitedStates. It is now a cruel, barbaric hellscape where it is preferable that women bleed out and die rather than be treated with dignity, humanity, and be given appropriate medical care during #miscarriage emergencies. I guess if #Jesus wanted these women to live, he wouldn't have sent them to fucking Texas.
The #UnitedStates should slap sanctions on ICC ofcls who seek an #arrest#warrant for PM Benjamin Netanyahu, a top foreign policy adviser to #Republican presidential #candidate Donald Trump said on Tues after meeting the Israeli leader.
"“when I WIN the Presidency of the #UnitedStates, they and others of the LameStream #Media will be thoroughly scrutinized for their knowingly dishonest & corrupt coverage of people, things, and events,” Donald #Trump posted on Truth Social last September in an attack on NBC News...
What could Trump do to the #news media and its ability to inform the American people?
Judging by what he did in his first term, plenty."
