Why are the US and Israel so against Palistine joining the World Court?

Somalia has a judge on that court. Japan, China, Russia. Apparently Israel has now withheld tax money used to pay the public sector. Many of the present members are due to step down to allow other countries to step forward and bring concerns to the table.

Meanwhile all anybody in the West says is that it should be a "two state solution"

They have been saying that for over 60 years and in the mean time atrocity after atrocity happens to which the world turns a blind eye to because of Hitler. It really is just like Animal Farm.

This continuous two state solution diatribe is a red herring.

Here in the US we are generally against Brown people joining anything. We are a rouge state except when someone needs help.

Netanyahu is clearly off his head. Just read some of those comments. At least when I am talking crazy I can claim to be drunk, but this man is saying this stuff seemingly to his own cabinet. Now either he too is drunk or he is in fact quite bonkers. Who would have thought wanting your own nation and joining a world court was tantamount to 'confrontation' or as another politician stated 'to attack us'. Israel is illegally occupying land and using cronyism to block any progress for the Palestinians. Israel is attacking the Palestinians, Israel is constantly threatening them. The narrative is slipping beyond their grasp now, it is only a matter of time. It won't be pretty.

Israel threatens more punitive steps against Palestinians
