In fealty to US foreign policy, Mexico has long refused to recognize Palestinian statehood. Last week, that finally changed, with AMLO’s government officially acknowledging Palestinian statehood and establishing a full embassy in Mexico City.

On June 2, the Palestinian Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates announced that, as of the first of the month, it had reclassified its diplomatic mission in Mexico from special delegation to embassy. The ministry “expresses its firm conviction that this measure will contribute significantly to the . . . strengthening of relations between Mexico and the State of Palestine, on the basis of respect and mutual recognition, in benefit of our two peoples as well as international security and development,” it affirmed in a statement.

    That shits so disingenuous. Weirdly entitled to. Like what’s wrong with the country you’re in now and a citizen of? You were born here, why do you get a special secret super homeland? Why does that homeland have to be purely a Jewish homeland? Ya know come to think of it I can think of another group that really wanted a pure homeland for people of a single race… A master race.
