French President Emmanuel Macron challenged countries that have recognized Palestine “on paper” to do more to address the humanitarian situation in Gaza, questioning the credibility of governments that remain inactive. “Are we really going to stand by and watch this spectacle, which we should all be ashamed of?” Macron... said during his speech at the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA). He also condemned what he said are ongoing violations in the occupied West Bank, though without specifically mentioning Israeli settlers, and called for respect for the “legitimate rights of the Palestinian people.” The French leader recognized Palestine as a nation when he spoke at last year's UNGA and recently joined with other European nations in imposing sanctions on Israel aimed at deterring illegal settlements in the West Bank.show more

Free Palestine ! Stop Genocide !11 days ago

Only words. The french president @EmmanuelMacron is a hypocrite who does nothing to stop the #GazaGenocide‌. Fortunately, he’ll be gone soon. Among the candidates in the May 2027 presidential election, the only one capable of truly defending a Free Palestine is @JLMelenchon.

France and Spain need to create a Palestinian state on their border. The countries that support a Palestinian state can pay for it.

Macron needs to open the French Borders to at 100-200K Gaza residents. Really, leaving them there in what was an open-air prison is unconscionable. He needs to get this done before the French election in Spring 2027 elections. The Gaza residents are ingenious in their ability to take billions in foreign aid, and build an organization capable of antagonizing their eastern neighbor.

🇵🇸 🇫🇷 “But what is our credibility worth if we remain inactive on Gaza? Some claim that peace has been achieved, but this has not opened up humanitarian deliveries. The spectacle, the spectacle, it is shameful. Shame on all of us. Look at what's happening in the West Bank, where day in, day out, we are seeing violations. And in the name of what? What we need is respect for the legitimate rights of the Palestinian people, their legitimate right to exist.”

🇸🇾 on behalf of the Arab Group: “The Arab Group condemns in the strongest terms the illegal Israeli decisions and measures aimed at imposing unlawful Israeli sovereignty, entrenching settlement activities, and imposing a new legal and administrative reality in the occupied West Bank, in a manner that accelerates attempts at its illegal annexation and the displacement of the Palestinian people. It reaffirms that Israel has no sovereignty over the occupied Palestinian territory. The Group warns against the continuation of Israel’s expansionist policies and illegal measures in the occupied West Bank, which contribute to fueling violence and conflict in the region. The Group stresses its absolute rejection of these illegal measures, which constitute a flagrant violation of international law and represent an assault on the inalienable right of the Palestinian people to self-determination and to the independence of their sovereign State on the lines of 4th of June 1967, with occupied Jerusalem as its capital, and which undermine the two-State solution and the ongoing efforts to achieve peace and stability in the region. The Group affirms that these illegal measures in the occupied West Bank are null and void and constitute a clear violation of United Nations Security Council resolutions, in particular resolution 2334, which condemns all Israeli measures aimed at altering the demographic composition, character, and status of the occupied Palestinian territory since 1967, including East Jerusalem, as well as the advisory opinion issued in 2024 by the International Court of Justice, which concluded that Israel’s policies and practices in the occupied Palestinian territory, and its continued presence therein, constitute a flagrant violation of international law, and affirmed the necessity of ending the unlawful Israeli occupation of the entirety of the occupied Palestinian territory and the nullity of the annexation of any part thereof. The Group renews its call upon the international community to assume its legal and moral responsibilities, to compel Israel to halt its dangerous escalation in the occupied West Bank, to reverse its unlawful policies and practices, and to cease the inciting statements of its officials. The Group also expresses its appreciation for the statement issued by the Secretary-General of the United Nations on 9th of February 2026 and commends its content regarding the Israeli measures in the occupied West Bank that undermine the two-State solution, the renewed affirmation of the illegality of settlements and of the Israeli presence in the occupied Palestinian territory, and the call to reverse these measures in pursuit of a lasting peace based on the two-State solution in accordance with international legitimacy resolutions. The Group stresses that the fulfillment of the legitimate rights of the Palestinian people, including their right to self-determination and to the independence of their State in accordance with international legitimacy resolutions and the Arab Peace Initiative, is the only path to achieving a just and comprehensive peace that ensures security and stability in the region.” Syrian Mission to the UN Ibrahim Olabi

Israeli soldiers were filmed chatting and shaking hands with illegal settlers who have been besieging the home of a Palestinian-American in the occupied West Bank for more than a week. Israel’s military claims it stationed the troops there to remove the settlers after their illegal siege generated international outcry. Yuli Novak, B’Tselem’s executive director, said last week that the developments in Qusra “are not an isolated incident,” accusing settler militias, with the backing of the Israeli army, of escalating attacks on Palestinian towns and villages, seizing land, attacking homes and displacing families. “Israeli ethnic cleansing in the West Bank is accelerating and expanding in full view of everyone,” she said. US Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee said Tuesday that Israeli settler violence in the occupied West Bank meets the definition of “terror” but “represents a tiny, tiny minority.” “When it happens to an American citizen, as it did recently, then it is our responsibility as an American embassy to engage and to be as strong as we can be in saying ‘this is unacceptable behavior,’” Huckabee said.

“We are obliged to underscore yet again: Israel is not the sovereign in the Palestinian territory. This illegal occupation has no rights whatsoever in Occupied Palestine, including in Jerusalem. The ceasefire’s permanence and success requires that Israel cease trying to dictate the future of Gaza and to fully withdraw from the territory. Gaza is an integral part of the Palestinian territory. It belongs to the Palestinian people, nobody else. And any transitional arrangements must fully respect our people’s rights and our sovereignty over the Occupied Palestinian Territory. The Gaza Strip must be reunified with the West Bank, including East Jerusalem, without delay.”
