Western powers like the U.K., France, Australia and Canada are all rewarding jihad and encouraging further violence by embracing a Palestinian state that lacks borders, governance or unity. Jerusalem Center for Security and Foreign Affairs President Dan Diker and Senior Fellow at the JCFA and Gatestone Institute Khaled Abu Toameh deliver an acute analysis of the international community’s recent push to recognize a Palestinian state and the dangerous fallout already unfolding. Abu Toameh, a top Arab affairs journalist and longtime observer of the Palestinian street, explains how the Palestinian Authority’s decade-long diplomatic campaign has culminated in a global public relations victory that Hamas is now capitalizing on. Dan Diker traces the origins of this diplomatic warfare to Yasser Arafat and the 1970s UN resolutions, showing how history, law and logic have been sidelined by anti-Israel sentiment and strategic confusion in the West. Together, the hosts warn that these recognitions don’t bring peace, but will embolden Iran-backed jihadist groups, fuel instability in Judea and Samaria and undermine any real hope for coexistence.
