Belgium will recognise a Palestinian state at the U.N. General Assembly, Foreign Minister Maxime Prevot said on Tuesday, adding to international pressure on Israel after similar moves by Australia, Britain, Canada and France.

Under mounting global criticism for its war in Gaza, Israel has been angered by the pledges to formally recognise a Palestinian state at a summit during this month's U.N. event.

Belgium will join the signatories of the New York Declaration, paving the way for a two-state solution, or a Palestinian state co-existing in peace alongside Israel, Prevot said in a post on X.

The decision comes "in light of the humanitarian tragedy unfolding in Palestine, particularly in Gaza, and in response to the violence perpetrated by Israel in violation of international law," Prevot added.

Belgium would also levy 12 "firm" sanctions on Israel, such as a ban on importing products from its settlements, a review of public procurement policies with Israeli companies and declaring Hamas leaders persona non grata in Belgium, Prevot said....

That would provide Israel with a place to move those who do not support Hamas in Gaza to, so the war can be fought to an unconditional conclusion, with the creation of a contiguous Palestine State and a contiguous Israel.
IMO, this is a war that will only end when humans or religion becomes extinct.

What are you talking about? The rogue terrorist state doesn't move anyone anywhere. But they're welcome to move.

Let's hope this draws renewed attention to massive crimes against civilians in Gaza that continue to be perpetrated by the criminal Netanyahu and his evil regime.
