1. The Irish government is to announce the recognition of a Palestinian state on Wednesday, a move strongly opposed by Israel, a source familiar with the matter said.

   European Union members Ireland, Spain, Slovenia and Malta have indicated in recent weeks that they plan to make the [recognition](https://www.reuters.com/world/middle-east/spain-ireland-recognise-palestinian-state-may-21-eus-borrell-2024-05-10/), possibly in a coordinated announcement, arguing a two-state solution is essential for lasting peace in the region.

2. When will ISIS gain a UN seat? This is very unfair to the hard work they put into building a similar organization

3. That’s right folks. Crime does, in fact, pay. Want a state? Murder a thousand civilians or more and take some hostages, that’s the way Ireland wants to give it to you!

4. It looks like Ireland has lost it’s mind. Murdering and raping 1,200 innocent people gets you recognized? Disgusting.

5. Draw us a picture of the borders of Palestine, Ireland.

6. Great accept all the “refugees” as well

7. People who use old tropes to denigrate Irish people have already lost the argument

8. And some east Asia island country with a democratic government still dont get recognised

9. what state is that? who running it? when are the elections?

10. [removed]

11. Maybe get the Palestinians to agree now, too

12. So who would be recognized as the sovereign government in Palestine? The PA, Hamas or both? If it’s the PA, would Ireland consider Rafah, and whatever parts of Gaza Israel pulled out of, to be under Hamas occupation?

    I agree that this will only be resolved with a two state solution, but only if both the Palestinians and Israelis agree to the exact framework and land swaps. Basically Oslo 2.0. Unilateral action by one side, or outside meddling in the peace process can only ever end in failure

13. When is Ireland welcoming Hamas leadership? I wonder if they’ll have an official state visit.

14. Maybe all these protesting university students should move to Ireland. Or even better, move within Hamas territory and show them how cool and progressive they are.

15. Way to reward terrorism and make sure it’s the go-to method for every extremist group with a political goal. At this point I don’t think it’s ignorance anymore, it’s outright malevolence.

16. The world already has many Islamic theocracies. Establishing another one might not be the best course of action.

17. It’s fun to have pretend foreign policy when you’re protected by default and have no real responsibilities, same condescending shit Canada does

18. That’s great! If need be will Ireland publicly accept refugees from this Palestinian state that they choose to publicly recognize?

19. I really hope when one day china decided to invade Taiwan, the world won’t condemn Taiwan for defending their people too well while “genociding too many innocent Chinese”

20. Proud to see it. Ireland is a great nation.

21. Also Spain, Norway and other countries have recognized Palestine. Hooray!

22. I love the cope here. It’s delicious. Fair play to Ireland, I’m proud of my country. Also to Spain and Norway.

23. Something tells absolutely nothing would change even if palestine was a recognized state with a proper government. Like other countries around it. It would still be ran by idiots

24. Not just Ireland; Spain and Norway too announced this today. It was a nicely coordinated action by the 3 countries. 

    They will all officially recognise the  Palestinian state on the 28th of May.
