Japan is finalizing plans not to recognize Palestine as a sovereign state for the time being, following the lead of the United States, a staunch ally of Israel, government sources said.
The move is believed to stem from concerns that such recognition could negatively affect the situation in the Middle East, as well as Japan’s relationship with the United States, the sources said.
Sorry guys, but we’re the US’s little bitch. I can’t stand it, but it’s hard to say no to one our biggest trade partners and the guys who provide the nuclear umbrella.
Not surprised that a racist country would buy into a racist ideology at the behest of their daddy.
Vassal state says what?
First things first: this should come as no surprise to anyone familiar with Japanese politics. It’s been a far right genocide denying shit show for roughly ever.
Secondly, “finalizing plans not to recognize Palestine for the time being” sounds like the epitome of bureaucratic time wasting 😄
“Can’t talk, too busy! I’m hard at work planning for not doing a thing right now!”
Disappointed, but totally unsurprised
Japan is still a incredibly racist country
don’t know much about Japan today. can u elaborate on a show it’s still racist? how does it compare to the US?
⚠️ sealion warning ⚠️
Hey Japan! You’ve got a little… orange stain on your lips gesticulates with a tissue
Good.
Japan has been the bitch of the United States ever since they had those bombs dropped on them.
It’s important everyone knows who wears the pants in that relationship.
