USA secretary of state Marco Rubio made an interesting note about the leaders in countries like the UK, France and Canada, who want to recognize a palestinian state at Israel's expense, and the USA's:

US Secretary of State Marco Rubio dismissed the recent moves by the governments of Canada, France, and the United Kingdom to recognize a Palestinian state, stating that those who seek to recognize such a state “can’t even tell you where this Palestinian state is" or who would rule it.

“They can’t tell you who will govern it," Rubio told Fox News' Brian Kilmeade yesterday. "It’s counterproductive," he said of the recognition of Palestine, adding that such recognition is "counterproductive."

“First of all, none of these countries has the ability to create a Palestinian state. There can be no Palestinian state unless Israel agrees to it,” he said.

He added: “At the end of the day, the Hamas side is the Palestinian statehood side.”

Rubio noted that the recognitions harm America's efforts to broker a ceasefire and hostage deal. “If Hamas refuses to agree to a ceasefire, it guarantees a Palestinian state will be recognized by all these countries in September."

“At the end of the day, Hamas is sitting there saying: We’re winning the PR war. We’ve got all these countries lining up on our side of this argument. We’ve got leverage now. We shouldn’t agree to anything. We should keep this thing going," he said.

[...] He criticized the international media for pushing fake narratives of Israeli evil while ignoring the continued plight of the hostages who are still held captive in Gaza. “You watch the programming of things like the BBC - 95 percent of their coverage is about how evil, in their narrative, Israel is. Very little coverage paid to the hostages, the families. You know what the cameras don’t capture? The suffering of 20 people living in tunnels right now, taken hostage by Hamas for almost, for a long time. No one’s covering that. No one’s talking about that.”

Again, this makes for an interesting point as to how anti-Israeli movements operate. They go by the laughable position of just wanting to do something for the sake of Israel's most babaric enemies, all to cripple Israel, and simultaneously, they even turn their backs on their own publics and endanger them as well.

That said, it's a terrible shame even Rubio had to go be part of the initial attempt to form a faustian pact with Syria's new dictator, Ahmed al-Sharaa, because in doing so, that was only granting legitimacy to another tyrant, and that undermines the USA's credibility in dealing with the issue of Islamic terrorism. There's surely a valid argument that can be made that, when the USA allows a terrorist in a different country to gain validity, that too can undermine Israel's efforts to free hostages.

Update: Donald Trump's warned Canada's Carney that if he doesn't stop this, Trump will impose more tarrifs:

If Canada does not make a deal with the U.S. by Friday, Trump is set to impose a 35% tariff on all Canadian goods that are not covered by the US-Mexico-Canada trade agreement.

It should be done now. Carney's just the latest embarrassment of a premier after Justin Trudeau.
