In an unprecedented low point in international relations and in Britain’s once glorious history, Prime Minister Starmer openly blackmails Israel by threatening to recognize Palestine unless we agree to a ceasefire that most Israelis already want but Hamas rejects, and support the creation of a Palestinian state which the majority of Israelis believe will threaten us existentially. He might as well insist that we disband the IDF and convert to the Church of England. He might as well tell the British people, facing the same jihadist forces Israel is fighting, “we’re next.” In announcing his decision to recognize Palestine—and to greatly strengthen the jihadists in France—French President Macron at least had the decency not to descend to extortion. He at least had the guts to commit national suicide with aplomb. Not so Starmer, who’ll go down in history as a Chamberlain with neither convictions nor courage.
