UN Commission Chair Criticizes Israel's Occupation

There is a call to address the root causes of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, with focus on the Israeli occupation. Socialist Workers Party's approach to the situation in the Middle East is critiqued for not adopting a consistent class approach to national liberation struggles. Negotiation and diplomacy efforts are highlighted in addressing armed conflicts, while skepticism is expressed on the European Parliament's role in foreign and security policy. Plans to recognize a Palestinian state after the war in Gaza are rejected by Gideon Sa'ar due to concerns about continued armed struggle against Israel.
