- A group of distinguished Israeli public figures, including former ambassadors and academics, has urged European Union countries and the UK to promptly recognise a Palestinian state, citing principles of historic justice and the need for regional peace. Alon Liel, former Director of Israel's Foreign Ministry and ambassador to South Africa and one of the signatories of the letter, emphasized the importance of diplomatic solutions over military actions in addressing Israel's current challenges. In an interview with Al Jazeera, He highlighted concerns about Israel's international standing and the potential repercussions of pursuing a military approach. Alon expressed apprehension about recent developments, such as Egypt's announced support for a genocide lawsuit against Israel, warning of significant diplomatic consequences for Israel's relationships in the Middle East.

We are not anti-Semitic we are anti-injustice and anti-genocide.
That’s very anti Semitic to say
Antisemitism has been misused in this genocide people now associated Antisemitism to propaganda to shut people up for rasing their voices against the Israeli government's policy choices and the IDFs commitment to genocide and their treatment of Palestinians. Saying Netanyahu is a criminal, he's committed a genocide, he broken international humanitarian law on multiple accounts is not antisemitic what would be antisemitic is to keep quite and allow this tragedy to unfold against the Palestinians. Jewish people are against this genocide but they are being silenced, oppressed , criminalised in standing up against Antisemitism by their own people.
@@Lp-ru3znumb arss 💩
considering we are the ones supporting Palestine, a Semitic peoples' right for freedom, and Israel is actively committing a genocide against them, you could say Israelis are the true anti-Semitic ones!
@@Lp-ru3zthat is a very dangerous view as it minimalizing the real problem of antisemitism. You create a chicken little scenario
Stop genocide.
Stop atrocities.
The problem is the artificial colonial settler state of Isreal having no regard to international law and human life. What Israel is doing is not self-defense, because it has no right to it as the occupier. Israel has proven to be an outlaw state. What is the international community going to do about that?
apparently next to nothing to stop the slaughter!
maybe the UN can take their army and go t.....what's that? hold on...I'm being told the UN doesn't have an army so maybe the international community can STFU
Sure the AIPAC seems to be in control of even the US. They are above the law apparently. See what happened at the UN. "Shame on you' was Israeli's reps closing remarks.
The problem is that Israel is a proxy for a US nuclear base in the Middle East. The US use this base to intimidate and dominate the Middle East. It is time the world, including Europe and NATO stood up to the never ending warmongering state of America!
@JohnFelinn. You missed the pivotal factor: Israel is able to get away with the crime of the century only because of the blind support of the USA.
FREE PALESTINE FROM ISRAEL
Free the WORLD from Israel
Who are the so called Palestine? the name is even stolen by the Arabs.
from hamas you mean
from radical islam
🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸❤️👆
According to the UN Charter, Palestine has a right to an armed struggle against occupation.
We know. It's the other side disregarding it.
It does not work in very small area and against the master of terrorism!
Except they won't arm them ,like arm Ukraine
go ahead
But according to the US (who makes the rules at the UN) if we label them ‘terrorists’ they have no rights.
Shame on israel
makes you wonder what we were told about WW2 was the truth
Like a French Jewish woman said:”The Israeli propaganda is indescribable and has surpassed all the other ones.
Thank you for your courage and honesty. People like you help everyone understand that this is propaganda and we should were judge or stereotype people groups or societies. You give us hope in humanity!!!!
Like a Gazan once told me "We voted for hamas so this is what we get."
@@chuckrogers4917🤡🏆
If the lie is big enough, and you tell it often enough, you get Israel
Chukro you Must be Terrorist Zionist cause you are all Liers 👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👿👿👿👿👿👿
As a Muslim, above all, as a human being I am ashamed of Arab rulers & Muslim leaders. Praise to S. Africa, Ireland, Nicaragua, Spain & few other courageous countries that stand against the genocide.
Praise what its all talk no real action. Do you not see the truth. No one is doing anything for the survival of the human beings in Gaza. The only hope Gaza has to survive now is unfortunately the terrorist organization Hamas!
That's because your leaders themselves don't respect human rights,so can not prosecute another country
@@littlethings190hmm...no one said it better. But I would like to remind you when they say Musl!m leaders, they mean Musl!m leaders should mobilize Their f!ght€r j¥ts and rockets against Is.r@el, she's not really talk!ng about advocacy here but jih@dic intervention.
@@littlethings190according to some analysts US supports 70% of the dictators in the world. I don’t blame the people of Arab countries, they are hijacked by these dictators who are supported by US. And they do more of what US wants them to do
I wish they showed solidarity with the LGB who has been protesting for palestinians too! Be totally awesome....
The overkill of antisemitism has already lost its importance.
Exactly
Their perpetual victimhood has made antisemitism meaningless.
Define Anit-semitism please.
@@mickymcl8359 Even I don't have any clear idea as things have so messed up.
We should be talking about prosecution for war crimes.
yeh i wonder how well that will go.. lets ask Russia how it went.. Lets ask them all see if anyone really cared..
Posthumously acknowledging crimes of this magnitude on an international level and any prosecution of, are wholly two different matters sadly.
@@tomjones9082 I never promised you a rose garden.
@@jfern6673Russia provided evidence against American claims of war crimes and provided proof of Ukraine ethnic cleansing of the Russian people in the dombas region including mass graves of citizens bombed by Ukraine with American weapons
Sure, and the same for hamas.
FREE PALESTINE 🇵🇸
Finally, Egypt is on the right side of history!!
But EU will sanction it...just wait unless it dances to their tune
Free Palestine
Yes Palestine 🇵🇸 is 💯 free now .
Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions
And for israel, Expulsion from the United Nations is a procedure under Article 6, Chapter II of the United Nations Charter when a member state of the United Nations can be expelled from the organization. This can be done when a member state has persistently violated the principles of the United Nations Charter
I think what Natenyahu has done it's the end of Israeli dominance in the region
How can the world watch Israel's offensive against Gaza when everyone is only condemning, why no action even if needed by force by the world leaders is taken immediately to stop the genocide
you are dreaming if you think the world is only condemning.. its just a handful of you people who think the hostages deserved to be taken..
You know wht force means. Isreali is using the FF force you want and it's devastating imagine another force joining the war it will be catastrophic no one will get out of Rafa because they will only be required to protect people in Gaza where war is happening. Deplomacy is a failer In Middle east they understand the language of weapons
Won’t happen because Israel is a nuclear power, and Israel is psychotic enough to use it.
It’s all about self interest for these people. Unbelievable.
What about the mention of Palestinian lives lost as human lives lost?
Totally agree.
October 7th
@@erickinyua4745How about 75 plus years of oppression and continuous dehumanisation of Palestininans. Thousands of prisoners in the Israeli jail.
7th October card has expired. World knows the making of 7th October.
@@erickinyua4745
So that yields permission 4 genocide?
the human shields?
These student PATRIOTS are TOO STRONG too be stopped! MASSIVE support from around the WORLD ON STANDBY! The TIDE HAS TURNED Ya'll! RESPECT!

It's over due for over 70 years Palestinian is FREE and Sovereign country NO VITO or Miscellaneous
😆
The world 🌎 demands freedom.
Why can't the Secretary general of UN who is supreme commander of UN peace keeping forces send Multinational UN peace keeping forces to Gaza immediately to stop genocide and carnage in Gaza. He is not going to be hanged publicly by the ICJ for sending peace keeping forces to Gaza
You mean the same organisation the Arabs didn’t listen to in 1948?
Big news indeed, well done Egypt! I’m intrigued to hear Israels response.
Not from their Government
big talk indeed, Egypt is all talk
All talk. Only announced after they "allowed" Israel to take control of the crossing. It's a move to a please public opinion.
Izreel will never regain international respect. It has lost its humanity
Mr Bibi doesn't care about anything.
She respected him when she called him Mr. Bibi call him Bibi Hitler
😢
Himself?
Baby Hitler only care about is survival!!!!! Israel doesn't mean anything to him if it did he would have allowed this genocide to take place nor continued on the path to the oppression of the Palestinians by further investing in the apartheid
He cares only about what harm he is doing to the people now!💔
If you want peace then you need to give same human rights to everyone.....
Free Free Palestine 🇵🇸 ♥️ 🙏 😎
There is no PALESTINE
Route cause no two state solutions. Mr Bibi should be liable for his coward actions.
Now they woke up ?! For 75 years and the slippery slop they watched happening for years where were they ?! I have no pity on them they only think on their skin
What??? You make no sense!
@@user-dd2ew4fr8s lease see my answer ! If you need more books to read in this regards let me know I have an entire library by now !
Thank you Aljazeera you are the best
The Zionoists States of America The Zionoists States of America
They are worried about lose Friends , not about Genocide Occupation, Atrocity what happened in Palestinians!!!
Icj case by Egyptian government. Well done.
At least some good people understand the root cost.
Yes islam
Like Edward Said 🌬️
When the Israelis realized that they cannot bring the Palestinians down to their knees;
and when there is a meeting between likeminded people who want coexistence instead of bloodshed,
then I think there is hope for Palestine 🇵🇸
The hit it’s on them now 😂😂 they are trying to save themselves from criminal charges now. It’s too late now
Do u even listen
U people live in lalaland…🤡

When it comes this late, hard to believe that they really care for peace.
I think they are concerned that the is hitting the , and the damage will be irreversible!
Better late than never. For all we know they might've been jailed for speaking out like the Israeli history teacher
Rwanda slaughter went on for 100 days and few did anything AFTER the slaughter started. 🤷🏾♂️
Looking back at history, nothing good happens quickly.
Finally Egypt dares
Bit late now.
Yes. Egypt announced that. Was published in the Israeli media. Some hours ago.
While it's a noble intention, I was hoping member states wouldn't need persuasion from 17 Isareli public figures. I had hoped member states would reflect upon historical evidence and do the right and just thing in recognising Palestinian statehood.
Shame on Egypt its too late.
Shame on Egypt once more
I'm happy there are voices of reason in Israel
The algorithm working against this development...very few views.
Thank God for these paople of conscience. God bless you all.
We all being played enough is enough!
Egypt should take more action
Free Palestine From is r@ ell
Free israel from palestine.
Flee palistain

Google isn't letting me write a comment. I wonder why?
Happened to me for the first time yesterday and again today. Keep writing.
This is how diplomacy is handled not the barbaric actions of Netanyahu with his actions. In a good marriage "you compromise"
The most infuriating part is people like him only care that Israel is losing standing in the international community and not that what Israel is doing is wrong
HONTE A ISRAËL !!!HONTE A ISRAËL ! HONTE,HONTE, !!!!
17 of a country with 10 million, it feels like a drop in the ocean! But I guess it's better than nothing.
Thank goodness there are still some sane voices of equity in Israel. Sadly EU and UK won't listen.
I had hoped EU and the UK wouldn't need persuasion from these Isareli diplomats. But, if they do, then further proof of how much sway Isareli holds over everyone.
@@OneSixSun They all bow to the USA administration and we know who controls the USA admin.
Recognized State of Palestine is the correct action.
Use of force doesn’t lead to peace or stability.Diplomacy will lead to peace and stability
Just. Free PALESTINE and İSRAEL and the WHOLE. WORLD will. Live. Peacefully....
Free the world from U.S hegemony
As the believer of a prophesy that he is the messiah to liberate Israel, Netanyahu cannot allow himself to be seen as a warrior loser! War victory is his defining characteristic so, he will never abandon this war dismal as its prospects are. Someone is going to set him free from his delusions same as putting a rabid dog out of its misery!
Two states but with the 1947 borders...
Good for Egypt but they could have done this way before 💔
Israel needs to allow the Palestinians to govern themselves and give them time to get established and become a normalized population. Once the people in the citizens are happy and they're thriving they're not going to be worried about fighting anyone or killing anyone. And I'm not going to sit here and act like there won't be bad apples that want to ruin everything, and this will probably happen on both sides. But if Israel extends a hand and lets them have their freedom, and the Palestinian government turns on them in the future then at least Israel could say they tried. But what they're doing right now and what they've done in the past isn't working they thought by leaving Gaza, that they're giving the Palestinians their freedom but they had a wall built around Gaza they got the sea on one side and they have a pact with Egypt at the bottom. And Israel literally controls everything that goes in and everything that goes out including the people. They're not allowed to have a military they're not allowed to have an airport they're not allowed to have so many things that us normal societies take for granted everyday Palestinians in Gaza aren't allowed to travel they're not allowed to leave their own country and anyone claiming or asking about the border with Egypt, Egypt agreed to allow Israel to have a say-so on anyone who leaves across the Egyptian in Gaza border. And in return the United States gives Egypt like 1 million dollars a year and a friendship and peace deal with Israel. So Palestinians can't just run across the border of Egypt and then go anywhere they want they have to go sign up and asked to leave or go across the border and then Israel has a say so in it as part of the Israel Egypt USA peace deal from years back
Israel has already tried. They handed Gaza to the Palestinians in 2005. The Palestinians voted in Hummus. The Palestinians then started rockets at Israel.
They will exactly the same again and we will be back to where we started.
Shame on you Israel
Peace, diplomacy, humanity, respect to rule of law, right to self-determination is key to any decent life.
Thank you for the maturity of key figures on the matter is commendable. AN EYE FOR AN EYE LEAVES BOTH PEOPLE BLIND.
PALESTINE MUST BE FREE IT CAN MANAGE ITS OWN AFFAIRS.
AS WE MUST STOP TEACH LIES, FEAR AND HATRED TO OUR CHILDREN
Free us here too in New York from Israeli occupation
The Arab countries will be held accountable on the day of judgement as to why they let these atrocities to happen when they are military capable to defend themselves and Palestinians
Is like you don't understand politics or how you rule a country,that is unfortunately the same mistake Hamas made.
If your in charge of a group of people you are meant to protect them not to do things that will get them killed.
So for now Arab leader are doing well to make sure that their people don't get hurt because of stupidity of Hamas and don't forget that the enemy has a nuclear power that can obliterate things
Ok
Is Israel at war with another state or it's a civil war? I think Israel is not in a state of civil war hence in conflict with another state. Israel indirectly recognises Palestine as a state.
Al Jazeera, thank you for continuing to report, thank you for standing up to Israel. It has cost you and your staff an enormous price. Thank you.
He is more worried about Israel’s reputation than it’s genocide on innocent civilians but still something.
ham,as is wrong
Great to hear it ❤
Looking at all those people congratulating or paying respects to the Palestinian delegation.
and get out of our eurovision !!!!! HA HA HA
Thank you so much Mr. Cerrel for the great analysis. ❤❤❤❤❤
Without 2 state solutions never and ever Israel can't live with peace a single day. I think Israel policy Maker take it their consideration
Agree. But there is no rational comprehensive thinking in this government- want to be theocracy.
A full Palestinian state should have new boundaries too. Lebanon should not have to have Isreal as a neighbor and Jerusalem belongs to all peoples.
“But my people would not listen to me; Israel would not submit to me. So I gave them over to their
stubborn hearts to follow their own devices” -Psalm 81:11-12
Because they would not honor Him, He let them do what they pleased to dishonor themselves.
Thank God theres still israelis..peace-loving ones tht believe in the DIPLOMATIC WAY..& steadfast in standing WITH humanity..Its saving the WORLD..NOT just the war..HE IS SO right in his perspective..This is the way to peace again in the world..😢
To all those Palestinian haters put this into your delusional mind that no matter what Palestine and Palestinians are not going anywhere... at the end of the day it is the visitors who leaves not the home owners!!
Thank you for this information we appreciate it.
*NOW All Muslim countries have to UNITED.*
To do what exactly, because most of our countries don't respect human rights and are not innovative enough to tackle challenges as we rely on others technology even on the isreali technology
Its not the people of Israel thats the problem its Netnayaho . The people in Israel dont like whats happening in Gaza.
More than 60 percent of the public support the Rafah invasion. I was shocked to read this!
Gantz, regev, gallant, Shapiro and the list goes on and on and on.
Israel has gone too far, I doubt they will ever have any international respect for a very long time.
Thank you
Thank you for your moral clarity and for your courage.
Israel cannot recover its status. We'll never forget and we want justice
Agree with him , diplomatic way might be the best way to go , hopefully both sides can initiate talks for peace and stop escalations
Thank you Alon for being the thinking minority. Unfortunately, Netanyahu is more interested in remaining in power and he has the support of the majority. He does not care about Israel International Standing, that can come later when and if he wins the war.
In order to have peace in the region, there should be peace in Israel. Gaza, the West Bank and East Jerusalem is part of Israel, historically Palestine.
Palestine was one country until 1921 when the British government, by the British mandate of Palestine, established Palestine occupation.
He’s basically advocating for lost friends, and pressure of diplomacy and not for the lives that have been viciously taken! They only care about their own interests!
Voice of statesmanship

Where is Jordan?
On the east bank of the river Jordan. You fail geography?
Where is south Africa
@@ivorbiggen2251he wasn’t asking that, you fail reason and understanding
Thank you Alon Liel for reminding us that not all jews are like netanyahu and the violent settlers. Keep reminding us.
Why should the UK want a Palestininan state, we didn't want the Israel one. We also already spent 30 years trying to get a two state solution but neither side would accept it.
Not really the UK gets dictated to and does what ever the US says ..also they were fake deals
Wow! Thank you Egypt! Praise God! Praying that will stop the slaughter and starvation that's happening in Gaza. God be with them as the situation for Gazans are beyond desprate today. Praying fervently for them.
Praise the Lord as many are now awake to the obscene cruelty. ❤️ Thy Neighbour.
