On the Coming State of Palestine

whether you like it or not, 
the people of Palestine are going to get 
statehood---
yes, they are going to get sovereign statehood,
and they will one day have the same international
recognition of any other country in the world---
it may not be in a few days, when the UN
gets together to quiver at the loud obnoxious veto
of the US & its buddies,
for the empire & its little brother Israel have shown
time & time again 
through the complete ignorance of UN resolutions &
international law,
that peace is not something that they are interested in
as of yet---
however,
the 122 countries in the world who understand the
right for the people of Palestine to be accepted by the
world community as a 
sovereign whole,
want Palestine to be able to hold those accountable 
who have been attempting to swallow up the remaining land left on which they still reside &
whom have not ceased in attacking them relentlessly,
in an international court,
with the same status that those they accuse already have---
those of us that support the coming sovereign state of Palestine
hope that others will come to the side of justice 
as only 7 more countries are needed to hold the 129 member, 2/3rds 
majority in the general assembly---
we all hope for more,
and there will be.

will this mean that Israel will remove its settlements from the West Bank?
will this mean that Israel will will cease occupying Palestinian land within the pre-1967 borders?  
will this mean that Israel will halt the construction of the barrier wall along the “border?”

of course not.

but china, one of the two permanent members on the UN security council,
already recognizes Palestine’s sovereign statehood &
they also are buying up the US
slowly but surely,
shifting US hegemony, thus affecting its buddies as well---
needless to say, 
things are going to change & 
when they do,
Palestine will be free, sovereign &
recognized.
