2 Mins Read

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu defended his son Yair, who insulted French President Emmanuel Macron by saying “Go to hell.” Macron had stated the possibility of recognizing the Palestinian state. Netanyahu, while acknowledging that his son’s insult to Macron was “unacceptable,” described Yair as a “true Zionist who cares about his country’s future.” In his post, Netanyahu also mentioned that everyone has the right to express their personal opinions but criticized the tone of Yair’s response to Macron’s tweet calling for the establishment of a Palestinian state. Netanyahu expressed his disapproval of Macron’s statement about recognizing the Palestinian state as “wrong,” stating that Macron’s continued support for the idea of a Palestine state whose sole purpose is the destruction of Israel is a significant mistake. Netanyahu argued that the establishment of a Palestinian state would be “unrealistic dreams.” Making a reference to France’s colonies like Yair did, Netanyahu emphasized that they would not compromise their existence and would reject moral lectures from those opposing granting independence to territories such as Corsica, New Caledonia, French Guiana, and the others that would not endanger France’s independence. Yair Netanyahu’s Insult Against Macron Yair Netanyahu, through his account, insulted French President Emmanuel Macron by saying “Go to hell!” in response to Macron’s remarks about recognizing the Palestinian state. Yair also expressed thoughts supporting the independence of territories such as New Caledonia, French Polynesia, Corsica, Basque Country, and French Guinea in his post where he insulted the French President. Macron’s Message About Recognizing the Palestinian State During an interview with France 5 channel after a two-day visit to Egypt, French President Macron mentioned the need to move towards recognizing (Palestine) and possibly reaching a decision in the coming months. Macron stated that they aimed to finalize the issue of recognizing Palestine in an international conference focusing on a two-state solution that they will jointly preside over with Saudi Arabia. Israel, persisting in the occupation of Palestinian territories and rejecting the two-state solution, reacted to Macron’s statement about the potential recognition of the Palestinian state in the future. Following Israel’s attacks on the Gaza Strip starting on October 7, 2023, the number of countries recognizing Palestine, like Spain, Norway, Ireland, Slovenia, Armenia, Bahamas, Trinidad and Tobago, Jamaica, and Barbados, reached 146.
