Israeli minister targets British Foreign Secretary over potential recognition of Palestine

In a post on his X social media account, Israeli Minister of Diaspora Affairs Amichai Chikli compared David Cameron—who stated that his country could recognize Palestine after a ceasefire is reached in Gaza and the Hamas presence in the region is ended—to Neville Chamberlain, who served as British Prime Minister from 1937 to 1940 and adopted a policy of appeasement toward Nazi Germany before World War II.

Chikli shared a photo of former Prime Minister Chamberlain holding a copy of the Munich Agreement he signed with Nazi Germany in 1938 alongside a similar pose of Cameron.

Referring to the statement Chamberlain made in London after the Munich Agreement, which stipulated that a region of Czechoslovakia be ceded to Nazi Germany, Chikli wrote: "Greetings to David Cameron, who wants to bring 'Peace for our time' and wants to give a gift in the form of a Palestinian state to the Nazis who carried out the October 7 atrocities."

British Foreign Secretary David Cameron said during a diplomatic visit to Lebanon today that after a ceasefire is reached in Gaza and the Hamas presence in the region is ended, his country could recognize a Palestinian state without waiting for the conclusion of a two-state solution.

Stating that there may be no need to wait for the conclusion of a two-state solution for the UK to recognize a Palestinian state, Cameron said, "As that process (toward a two-state solution) becomes more real, as it becomes more of a reality, we can look at that (recognizing Palestine)."
