The US State department says they support a two state solution and then freaks out when people recognize Palestine as the second state.

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 5 points 6 months ago

No see the two states need to be ethnicly jewish and christian how dare you

Penguins continue to support genocide (any genocide).

I know you're just kidding around, but it does seem that Antartica is a far light shade of grey, probably should've included it in the legend though.

[–] Evil_Shrubbery@lemm.ee 1 points 6 months ago

Yes, I noticed that. And, they didn't point out which colour are seas either - sometimes you have to assume common knowledge is known to common people. A bad assumption, just a necessary one.

This is the inverse of 'its always the same map'

[–] SloppyPuppy@lemmy.world 11 points 6 months ago (1 children)

I wonder on which land they recognize this state.

[–] clay_pidgin@sh.itjust.works 9 points 6 months ago

Or which government. It's a nice symbolic gesture, though it doesn't seem to be benefiting Gazans at all!

Yet another strike against Antarctica.

Here's a map of who's under the thumb of US.

Ukraine and Cuba nod in agreement. Damn imperialists.

I have never understod why Palestine didn't automatically become a UN member at the same time Israel did.

Didn't the UN basically create both countries through the "two state 'solution'"?

Huh, you really don’t think of Cameroon and Eritrea as having their shit together.

[–] swayevenly@lemm.ee 6 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago)

Given Eritrea's conflict with Ethiopia, you would think they'd understand the Palestinian's plight.

US/Canada, Western Europe, and Australia/NZ.

Always the same map.

Where were they fucking decades ago?

Oh, they were busy sucking israels dick while it openly committed crimes against humanity.

[–] wahming@monyet.cc 11 points 6 months ago

Don't let perfect be the enemy of good. Would you rather things stayed as they were?

[–] Beaver@lemmy.ca 1 points 5 months ago

Meanwhile here in Canada the conservatives and liberals are refusing to see the genocide for what it actually is. Down with BIBI.

We need proportional representation badly.
