The campaign to get almost all nations to recognize Palestinian statehood is ongoing and successful. Soon Israel will have a full armed Palestinian state on its border, ready to join in and kill Jews at will, just as they do now. Thanks to President Biden, who recently gave the Palestinian Authority nearly 1 billion American tax dollars, their racist and terrorist Martyr program is now fully funded. How do Americans feel knowing that the streets of this supposed nation are lined with photos of ‘Martyrs’… these young men and women who sacrificed themselves to kill Jews.
They then are called Martyrs, and their families received monthly welfare checks, now straight from America taxpayers. President Biden seems to love to support terrorists and outlaw regimes. He gave Iran billions to arm up and attack the world using their Houthi faction, as well as Hezbollah and Hamas. President Biden is directly responsible for the conflicts happening right now. Or should we say Lord Obama is since it is generally known that it is he who is pulling the strings. We may as well call Biden President Chaos, as that is all he has done in the region and in the U.S. as well since taking office. He brings disorder, death and war.
On a significant diplomatic front, Armenia announced on Friday its decision to recognize Palestinian statehood. This move prompted a swift response from Israel, leading to the summoning of the Armenian ambassador for a firm discussion. The Armenian Foreign Ministry articulated its endorsement of a two-state resolution to the Israel-Palestinian conflict, affirming Armenia’s dedication to fostering peace, stability, and lasting reconciliation in the Middle East.

Reacting to Armenia’s recognition, Israel’s Foreign Ministry expressed its disapproval by summoning Ambassador Arman Akopian. The Palestinian Authority, on the other hand, lauded Armenia’s decision, viewing it as a positive contribution to the preservation of the two-state solution amidst ongoing challenges, and a step towards promoting peace and stability for all involved.
This recognition by Armenia joins similar acknowledgments by Slovenia, Spain, Ireland, and Norway within the last month, bringing the total number of UN member states recognizing Palestine to 145. These developments have been met with frustration from Israel, which perceives them as rewarding Hamas following the October 7 attacks, where terrorists killed approximately 1,200 people and took 251 hostages, sparking the ongoing conflict in Gaza.
Armenia, while acknowledging the war, strongly condemned acts of violence against civilians and the taking of civilian hostages during conflicts. The Armenian statement emphasized the international community’s call for the unconditional release of civilian hostages, although it stopped short of blaming any specific party for these acts.
The Gaza Health Ministry, controlled by Hamas, reports severe casualties in the Strip, with over 37,000 people killed or presumed dead so far in the conflict, although these numbers include an unverified mix of civilians and combatants.

The backdrop of this diplomatic development includes a complex relationship between Israel and Armenia, influenced heavily by Israel’s military ties with Azerbaijan. Azerbaijan, supported by Israel and Turkey, has been involved in a renewed conflict with Armenia over Nagorno-Karabakh, which saw a significant Armenian exodus last year due to Azerbaijani military actions described by Armenia as ethnic cleansing.
Israel’s position on historical issues such as the Armenian Genocide remains nuanced, not formally recognizing the genocide but occasionally referencing it in criticisms against Turkey, adding layers to the intricate diplomatic engagements in the region.
Armenia’s Armenian community in Israel, including descendants of genocide survivors, forms a significant part of the socio-cultural landscape, particularly in Jerusalem’s Armenian Quarter.
