Although Germany does not consider Palestine a country, a majority of the world’s states — 139 out of a total of 193 — at the United Nations do. What’s significant this time, though, is that recognition is apparently being reconsidered by the US, a country that has previously vetoed almost every attempt to make Palestine a country.
The UK also seems to be thinking about it even though in the past, the country has been just as opposed to the move as the US.
If me and a bunch of my mates declared the place you live an independent country that we rule over and you don’t get a say. Then when you push back say “2 state solution, where we still own your house” are you going to accept that?
