[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Genuine question--how is 100+ nations officially recognizing Palestine as a state different than the UN doing the same for Israel in 1948? I see so much disdain for latter, with people saying that UN had no right to make that declaration, but the same people seem to be praising the former. In both cases you have a population living in these places saying they should have the right for self-determination and self-governance, and that the land belongs to them and they want to the world to recognize that. Plus, in both cases, that recognition of soverignity leaves another group pushed out or with less, and with no say about it. So why is the announcement from earlier this week a positive but the 1948 decision unacceptable? [/quote] Bingo. The Palestinian advocates accuse Israel of hypocrisy (justifiably in certain cases), but are equally hypocritical when it comes to the UN resolutions. Ridiculous.[/quote]
