In fealty to US foreign policy, Mexico has long refused to recognize Palestinian statehood. Last week, that finally changed, with AMLO’s government officially acknowledging Palestinian statehood and establishing a full embassy in Mexico City.

In fealty to US foreign policy, Mexico has long refused to recognize Palestinian statehood. Last week, that finally changed, with AMLO’s government officially acknowledging Palestinian statehood and establishing a full embassy in Mexico City.

On June 2, the Palestinian Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates announced that, as of the first of the month, it had reclassified its diplomatic mission in Mexico from special delegation to embassy. The ministry “expresses its firm conviction that this measure will contribute significantly to the . . . strengthening of relations between Mexico and the State of Palestine, on the basis of respect and mutual recognition, in benefit of our two peoples as well as international security and development,” it affirmed in a statement.

    I’m German. Can you guess which way the conversation turns if I dare to question Israeli politics?

      Same here. I try to return with “what’s happening in Palestine is fascism” which usually ends the conversation and relationship…

        because it’s a baseless and idiotic statement? do you know what fascism even means?? if you wanted to express your dissatisfaction with “palestine” you could have said it’s ethnic cleansing at least ( which its definitely not (unless you consider terrorists an ethnicity)) it’s more along the lines of a stubborn and unwilling to compromise people lead by the stupidest most selfish idiots on the planet

          Hey!

          All you

          All your base belongs to us

          Think and act and speak like us in public

          We will rape and kill your family while we bulldoze your house.

          Also yall are all terrorists now.

          Please, every single secular jew I’ve ever met who comes back from Isreal comes back with a truly, truly deep level of racial self hatred only modern jews can reach.

          Cause they know history is repeating itself and this time they are the baddies.

          Yeah I’m actively comparing modern day isreal with nazi Germany. If you’re not this specific race you’re a second class citizen. And if you’re this one specific race you’re a third class citizen with basically no rights.

          How is that not just like the fooking Germans in the 30s and 40s?

          Everyone knows. Nobody cares because brown muslims.
