Ireland and Spain reiterate plan to form alliance to recognise state of Palestine
(www.theguardian.com)
A sublemmy for the loveliest country on earth.
Too bad so much of the rest of the Western world believes in the right of every human being to basic freedoms like self-determination, unless they're Palestinian apparently. But to avoid being completely cynical, moves like this indicate progress is being made towards a genuinely free Palestine as part of a two-state solution and I'm glad it's being discussed so openly.
