      I dunno, I found it pretty goofy that the government is threatening to recognize a country as a punitive measure against another.

        yhea, it makes no sense, “Recognising Palestine” is like recognising the existence of water.

        not doing so is straight up denying reality.

      “Country A threatens that if Country B doesn’t do what they want they’ll recognize C as a country” kinda sounds Onion funny to me

      Idk man/woman/compadre,.when I saw it I legitimately thought it was satire. It was both the weird condition and also a general sense of “no way”.

        It is kind of incredible that UK would even consider saying they might do something like this eventually.
