US Senator Tim Kaine calls for US recognition of Palestine, following Knesset vote
2024-07-20
[JPost] US Senator Tim Kaine (D-VA)
Who? Oh, right — he was Hillary Clinton’s running mate for the 2016 campaign. He wasn’t as helpful to the ticket as she’s hoped…
called for the US to recognize Palestine on Friday due to the Knesset vote on Wednesday to reject the establishment of a Palestinian state west of the Jordan River.

In a statement posted to his webpage, Senator Kaine said that due to the Knesset's decision to deny the establishment of a Palestinian state, " the US should no longer condition recognition on Israeli assent, but instead upon Palestinian willingness to peacefully coexist with its neighbors."

The statement was followed by several attempts to highlight Senator Kaine's support for Israel’s right to defend itself as well as his support for humanitarian aid.

Sure. That could happen. Wouldn't hold my breath, tho.
I actually laughed out loud when I read that.

#2  Silentbrick: that includes Gaza and the West Bank, plus as much of Syria and Lebanon as is needed to protect Israeli lives. The Sinai would only be re-occupied if Egypt gets feisty.

#1  We recognize that all of 'Palestine' belongs to Israel and it's people and the current infestation of vermin needs to be cleaned out.
