Indonesia Makes Big Announcement Regarding Gaza.

Prabowo Subianto said his country is willing to provide peacekeeping forces in Gaza. He made the remarks during a speech at the United Nations' General Assembly session.
"It is with a heavy heart that we recall the ongoing, unbearable tragedy in Gaza", he said. "Thousands of innocent people have been killed, most of them women and children, and famine and destruction have occurred. A humanitarian disaster is happening before our eyes. We condemn all acts of violence against innocent civilians," he said. The president reiterated his "commitment to the two-state solution in the Palestine problem."
"Indonesia declares that it will immediately recognise the State of Israel and support all guarantees for Israel's security the moment Israel recognises the Palestinian State and Palestine's independence," Subianto told the gathering.
The day before, the U.K. joined Australia and Canada to recognise Palestinian statehood despite opposition from Israel and the United States.
Prime Minister Kier Starmer maintained in a video statement on Sunday that this decision was "not a reward for Hamas".
U.S. President Donald Trump issued a harsh assessment of the announcement on Sunday evening, characterizing the choice as "rewarding Hamas."
There's not too many people who honestly believe that a two-state solution is even viable (especially with one side bombing the other side when they try to negotiate). We'll see if this sticks.
