This week, several Western countries, including the UK, France, Australia and Canada, concluded their complete capitulation to the antisemitic elements within their domestic constituencies and recognized the state of “Palestine.” The question is, what does this actually mean?

Perhaps a plain reading of the text, so to speak, will help us: Merriam-Webster defines “State” as “a politically organized body of people usually occupying a definite territory

**especially**: one that is sovereign” [emphasis not added].

Here’s the thing: we’re not sure “Palestine” is any of those things.

**Politically Organized**

There are two primary political organizations associated with “Palestine,” Hamas and the Palestinian Authority (PA). Even though these recognitions are a reward for what was largely Hamas’s barbarity on October 7th, it will be the PA that reaps what Hamas sowed. In other words, in a desperate attempt to claim that there are elements of a state that can govern a people, neo-pro-Palestinians will claim the PA is the “State of Palestine’s” governing body.

They’ll choose the PA over Hamas, not because one seeks coexistence and the other conflict, but because the PA hides its crazy much better than Hamas. Ramallah still supports terrorism; it still pays stipends to murderers sitting in Israeli jails, and Mahmoud Abbas is still a dictator holding onto power more than a decade after his term ended.

If the PA is your standard for that which organizes a body of people politically, MS-13 has a claim to at least parts of Los Angeles. A legitimate government, the PA is not.

**Defined Territory and Sovereignty**

We’d ask the Europeans and their fellow terrorist sycophants to define the borders of Palestine, but some of them might blurt out “from the River to the Sea,” and that will get awkward.

Arabs who today have chosen to call themselves Palestinians have said for decades that they will take whatever land they can through negotiations and then use that territory to make the land of Israel free of Jews (

**Judenrein** as the term was originally used).

As the Action Fund’s Boris Zilberman noted in a missive to journalists earlier this week, “What has been clear for decades, and even more so in the post 10/7 world, is that the “Free Palestine” movement means only one thing – the destruction of Israel.”

“Palestine” is not a country with borders or a real government, and it does not even signify a collective longing for such; rather, it is a movement to destroy Israel. With that in mind, the question of sovereignty kind of answers itself.

** **

No, there is no sovereign Palestinian people or state. And any discussion of Palestinian sovereignty at this moment is absurd. It’s fine to believe in coexistence, but it’s not fine to force a victim to coexist with her abuser. Israel will never again coexist alongside neighbors with the means, motive and/or opportunity to harm her citizens. There is no room amongst serious people for serious discussion of Palestinian sovereignty.

**Has Not, Does Not, Will Not Exist**

** **

The recognition of “Palestine” represents the Dr. Suessification of Middle East policy. Old and once great powers are earnestly engaging in fantasy, believing that they can

**will** the Palestinians into statehood. Spoiler Alert: If you could, Ariel Sharon would have in 2006 during the Disengagement that enabled the 10/7 Massacre.

One cannot force common decency upon a people who refuse to accept our common humanity. And the empty recognitions by hollow politicians of a “State of Palestine” will make that country precisely as real as Narnia. So, what does this actually mean? In the end… nothing. Not a bit, not at all.
