Are these countries going to send troops to seize Israeli territory and establish his “Palestinian” state? Possibly, but not likely. They are just virtue-signaling in order to secure the massive Muslim vote in their countries.
A “Palestinian” state, if it is established, will become a jihad base for renewed attacks against what remains of Israel, just as Gaza did in 2005.
And why is Starmer’s speech presented as if it were a poem by Emily Dickinson?

“PM statement on the recognition of Palestine: 21 September 2025,” Prime Minister’s Office, September 21, 2025:
Delivered on:
21 September 2025 (Transcript of the speech, exactly as it was delivered)In the face of the growing horror in the Middle East…
We are acting to keep alive the possibility of peace and a Two State Solution.
That means a safe and secure Israel…
Alongside a viable Palestinian State –
At the moment, we have neither.
Ordinary people – Israeli and Palestinian…
Deserve to live in peace –
To try to rebuild their lives…
Free from violence and suffering.
That’s what the British people desperately want to see.
Yet, almost two years after the barbaric attacks of 7 October…
Hostages are still held by the terrorists of Hamas.
Recent images show the hostages suffering and emaciated.
Hamas refuse even to release all the bodies of the dead.
I have met British families of the hostages.
I see the torture they endure each and every day…
Pain that strikes deep in people’s hearts across Israel and here in the UK.
The hostages must be released immediately…
And we will keep fighting to bring them home.
Let’s be frank –
Hamas is a brutal terror organisation.
Our call for a genuine Two State Solution…
Is the exact opposite of their hateful vision.
So we are clear –
This solution is not a reward for Hamas…
Because it means Hamas can have no future.
No role in government.
No role in security.
We have already proscribed and sanctioned Hamas…
And we will go further –
I have directed work to sanction other Hamas figures in the coming weeks.
Meanwhile, the man-made humanitarian crisis in Gaza reaches new depths.
The Israeli government’s relentless and increasing…
Bombardment of Gaza…
The offensive of recent weeks…
The starvation and devastation…
Are utterly intolerable.
Tens of thousands have been killed –
Including thousands as they tried to collect food and water.
This death and destruction horrifies us all.
It must end.
We have now evacuated the first group of sick and injured children to the UK…
To be treated by the NHS.
And we continue to increase our humanitarian support.
But still, nowhere near enough aid is getting through.
We call again on the Israeli government…
To lift the unacceptable restrictions at the border…
Stop these cruel tactics…
And let the aid surge in. ***
With the actions of Hamas…
The Israeli government escalating the conflict…
And settlement building being accelerated in the West Bank…
The hope of a Two State Solution is fading.
But we cannot let that light go out.
That’s why we are building consensus with leaders in the region and beyond…
Around our Framework for Peace.
This is a practical plan to bring people together –
Behind a common vision and a series of steps…
Including the reform of the Palestinian Authority…
That take us from a ceasefire in Gaza…
To negotiations on a Two State Solution.
We will keep driving this forward.
As part of this effort…
I set out in July the terms on which we would act –
In line with our Manifesto –
To recognise Palestinian statehood.
That moment has now arrived.
So today –
To revive the hope of peace and a Two State Solution…
I state clearly, as Prime Minister of this great country…
That the United Kingdom…
Formally recognises the State of Palestine.
We recognised the State of Israel more than 75 years ago as a homeland for the Jewish people.
Today we join over 150 countries who recognise a Palestinian State too –
A pledge to the Palestinian and Israeli people…
That there can be a better future.
…
I know the strength of feeling that this conflict provokes.
We have seen it on our streets…
In our schools…
In conversations with friends and family.
It has created division.
Some have used it to stoke hatred and fear.
But that solves nothing.
Not only must we reject hate…
We must redouble our efforts to combat hatred, in all its forms.
We must channel our efforts…
United together in hope…
Behind the peaceful future that we want to see:
The release of the hostages…
An end to the violence…
An end to the suffering…
And a shift back towards a Two State Solution…
As the best hope for peace and security for all sides.

UK, Canada, Australia are hoping that the Muslims will eat them last
OLD GUY says
And in the mean time they hope the checks keep coming.
࿗Infidel࿘ says
Reminds me of that question to Abraham Lincoln: “How many legs does a lamb have if you call its tail a leg?”
Lincoln: “Four: calling a tail a leg doesn’t make it one”
Same thing here. The state of Palestine is about as real as the state of Tartary
kevin kraemer says
Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools.
Wellington says
Proving again that doing nothing is so very often a much better option than doing something.
somehistory says
Wellington, some years ago, I read about a man who was overweight (or thought he was), so he took a large knife and cut into his abdomen to remove the fat. Around the same time, another cut into his abdomen to remove his appendix.
Doing nothing would have been better for the first, and calling a medical expert would have been the better for the second man.
These politicians should ask the *experts*….the Israelis…what should be done here.
somehistory says
The foolish liar says it is ‘not a reward for hamas.’ If today, all of the muzzies in Gaza said, ‘hamas is dead, no more hamas,’ that wouldn’t make any difference because the members of hamas who are still alive, would still be devout muzzie terrorists.
The members of al queda could change the name of their terror group, (like the ghoul of Syria left the group, but is still a terrorist), but it wouldn’t mean anything if they all stayed muzzie terrorists.
starmer, carny, and any others are either fools or they are knowingly supporting evil and terrorism. (and still fools).
starmer can deny that they are giving hamas a reward; so call it a bonus, or a new lease on life, or a medal of dishonor….it is still the same thing.
“A rose by any other name….” A muzzie terrorist….group or individual….is still a muzzie terrorist; and giving him what he wants, is *rewarding* him for his evil.
somehistory says
Seeing something that doesn’t exist….Like Jimmy Stewart in “Harvey.”
In this case, not a harmless movie.
Troybeam says
Recognizing a state that actually does not exist, well that’s like saying the earth is flat.
Eddie says
Well here the world sees, writ large, the incoherent ramblings of a dangerous mad man.
“That’s what the British people desperately want to see”
This man does NOT speak for the British people and never has, and never will do so.
I am ashamed by the sheer stupidity of the man. He has signed a pact with terrorists.
All I can say is that he also persecutes the native British and means to destroy our own nation.
Just two days ago a man was jailed for 30 months just for remarking ” F**k Allah.
And a 12 year old girl had her phone seized for an online tweet 4 months ago and faces arrest.
This is Britain in 2025.
I sincerely apologise to all Israelis.
James Lincoln says
Eddie says,
“This man does NOT speak for the British people and never has, and never will do so.”
Yes.
But Starmer does not care.
Edward Amos Brandwein says
If they recognize “Palestine” they should also recognize “Disneyland,” “Narnia,” “Neverland” and “Wonderland “
gravenimage says
The latter are generally lovely fantasies–the former, not so much…
Walter Sieruk says
Yes, that is right, there is no “Palestinian state”. There never has been one nor can there ever be one because there never has been nor are there now any genuine ethnic or race of people who are the “Palestinians.”
In reality, they are the Arabs of the area of the Middle East. The idea that there are a distinct “Palestinian people’ is a modern fiction. Likewise the “Palestine flag is a fake flag.
Those Arab/Muslims who call themselves “Palestinians” have applied that term only for themselves in the hope of giving them some kind of “valid” claim on the land that is the State of Israel, in the view in the people of the other nations of this world.
For there is not nor was there ever a genuine land that is “Palestine.” That is a modern myth.
As the following reveals …
“The land of Israel was renamed Syria Palestrina by Hadrian, the Roman Emperor. Following the second revolt against Rome in AD 132- 135. The Philistines had always been the enemy of the Jews .and as such it was an insult to the Jewish people.” [1]
It should also be added, that Hadrian had deliberately intended the renaming of Israel to be an insult and offence to the Jews.
Furthermore, about the origin of that word “Palestine, history reveals that the ancient Philistines recorded in the Bible and history reveals the people who came from the Greek Islands and some parts of the mainland Greece and the Island of Crete They have no connection, at all, the to the Arab /Muslim of modern times who called themselves the “Palestinians.”
From those ancient people, the Philistines, the word “Palestine” .came into being.
There is no genuine ethic group or race who are the “Palestinians.”
Early in the last century a anyone living in that land, Arab or Jew, who lived in that land was called a ”Palestinian.”
Only after 1964 did the Arab/Muslims start to refer to themselves , exclusively , by the word “Palestinian.”
The reason for that is that they felt that by giving themselves that title they would appear to have some kind of valid claim on that land.
Indeed, never in history was there a “Palestinian state.” Any claim to the land is an invalid and false claim.
[1] Miracle of Israel by Gary Frazier and Jim Fletcher, page 65.
Walter Sieruk says
Such a thing as a “Palestinian state” is only possible of there are really such race or ethnic group of people who are genuine “Palestinians.”
Therefore an important question, which is “Are there really an ethnic or race of people who may be , rightly called the “ Palestinians” or is that just a hijacked term that the Arabs of the area in the Middle East now exclusively only to themselves without valid genuine proof that such a term is actually fitting for them.
Many reliable scholars and historians on Israel and the entire Middle East have ,rightly, answered that question. Two of them had together have compiled a book on this subject and had revealed, “The Palestinian leadership has repeatedly sought to legitimize their right to the land, by claiming it belongs to them and not the Jews. One of their BIG lies is that the land was always referred to as Palestine. Historically, this is inaccurate ! There has never been a Palestinian state in the history of the world.”
The authors further explain that “The Roman Emperor Hadrian , following the second Jewish revolt led by Simon Kochba , changed the name of Israel to Syria Palestina which he took from the Hebrew word Pelesheth, which we know as Philistia . Why ? Because the Jews hated the Philistines and this was a slap in the face to them.”
Those writers also added that “”What difference does this make ? …. “ They then explained, because it gives the false impression that there was a land of Palestine in ancient times and perpetuates the lie that the Jews took away the Palestinian land.”
In conclusion, “Palestine’ is a man- made fiction therefore, there is no ethnic group or race of people who are real“ Palestinians.” Likewise, the “Palestinian flag is a fake” flag.”
By great contrast, Israel is an historic and Biblical reality, Psalm 135;4.

John Smith says
Calling for a Palestinian state will undoubtedly secure these leaders the muslim vote, but I don’t believe they are doing it for this reason. In their tiny leftarded brains they actually do believe that a two state solution is the answer. They may all masquerade as intellects (Sarmer and Lammy in particular} but the truth is they are not. They just don’t possess enough intelligence to realise it will never work.
Lee Helperin says
It has now become crystal clear what country this WEF Manchurian Candidate prime minister meant when he campaigned on “elbows up.”
gravenimage says
I think the meaning was “Tits Up”, instead…
John1 says
Hamas can build a tunnel and weapons storage area under their embassy…..
crown says
I see both of the gents in the picture are enjoying a cold one.
Better savor it now, lads. The mobs of people you two are letting into your countries (O, such enrichment!) are going to prohibit alcohol.
jerry glenn says
These countries are getting what they voted for: rampant Islamopandering.
Peter Dale says
I have written to Mark Carney, Canada’s miserable excuse of a prime minister, to point out that his reasons for recognising a ‘state’ of Palestine are equally valid for supporting independence for Quebec ( and Alberta for that matter). I have also written to the Israeli government suggesting that it consider publicly supporting independence for Quebec. Oddly, however, I have received no reply from Mark.
Winston 101 says
It’s official, They are insane. They are recognizing something that doesn’t exist.
They celebrate their “muslim, two-state delusion” by drinking alcohol?
And what, “palestinian” group will rule in your imaginary state?
The current Pay-for-Slay terror group candidate? Or do you have some young
up and coming terror group you’d like to recommend.
What could possibly go wrong?
gravenimage says
+1
gravenimage says
UK, Canada, Australia recognize ‘Palestinian’ state that doesn’t exist
…………………………………
Hamas and Fatah could have essentially set up states if they had wanted to–but this was *never * a priority. The ultimate aim is destroying democratic Israel.
