Britain’s Suicide: Starmer Set to Hand Hamas Statehood “Within Days”

Time is up. Britain’s ultimatum to Israel has expired, and now London is preparing to deal the Jewish state a blow on the world stage. According to The Guardian, Foreign Secretary David Lammy will announce in Parliament that the U.K. is “on track” to recognize a Palestinian state as early as next week.

Britain, instead of tightening its stance against terrorism, is rushing toward unilateral recognition that would reward Hamas and embolden its backers in Tehran.

Starmer set out “conditions” last month: an end to the war in Gaza, a ceasefire, and a halt to Israeli sovereignty moves in Judea and Samaria. But Jerusalem has not capitulated. Instead of holding Hamas accountable for continued atrocities, Britain now moves to penalize the only democracy in the Middle East.

By pushing recognition, Britain risks fueling extremism on its own streets, already roiled by mass pro-Palestinian protests, while abandoning its traditional role as a bulwark of Western values alongside Israel and the United States.

Lammy may call the humanitarian situation in Gaza a “man-made disaster.” But what he omits is who made it: Hamas and the PLO controlloing Judea and Samaria. Instead of confronting the terrorists who hoard aid, use children as shields, and launch rockets from hospitals, and the cult of Jihad that the majority of Palestinians enthusiastically support, London has chosen to scapegoat Israel.
