More Patience Than Job

The Palestinians apparently have finally given up.

Disillusioned by the collapse of talks and disappointed by the US administration, the Palestinians are turning away from negotiations and seeking international recognition for a Palestinian state.

[...]

Brazil, Argentina and Bolivia have already announced their recognition of a Palestinian state along the 1967 borders, and Uruguay has said it will do so next month. Several other Latin American countries are expected to follow suit.

On the European front, the Palestinian Authority is seeking to upgrade its presence to the level of diplomatic representation, and has already done so in France, Spain, Portugal and Norway.

The Palestinians also are set to appeal to the United Nations Security Council for a resolution to halt Israeli settlement construction, which is regarded as illegal under international law.

Of course, since we're the only country that matters...

....but hey, do what you want....you will anyway.
