"Argentina's government has announced that it recognizes the Palestinian territories as an independent state within their pre-1967 borders, following a similar move days earlier by neighboring Brazil."
Article says that US lawmakers condemn Brazil's recognition as "severely misguided" and "regrettable."
This is a pretty big deal for the Pro-palestinian movement. Kind of upsetting how blatant and shrewd U.S. politicians can be in voicing their position. It's one thing to disprove, but to condemn Brazil's and Argentina's position is kinda irresponsible.

Hard to tell if you're just another anti-semitic troller. It is absolutely misguided to fuel the fire that is the middle eastern conflict when your country has enough of its own damn issues. Argentina and Brazil are really the most stable of places to start voicing radical opinions on the middle east...

Didn't say it was. Said that it was hard to tell if he was just another anti-semitic troller. I've run in to at least 3 different folks on this site who fit that description. Some of them have started out looking innocent (like the post above). I was just mentioning it in the chance this turns into another one of those threads that is an israel and jew-bashing session.

Hey guess what, it's possible to disapprove of Israel's foreign policy/domestic policy and actions without being anti semitic.
Say something intelligent.
