In a significant diplomatic move, Mexico’s President Claudia Sheinbaum has officially recognized Palestine as a state, marking a historic moment in international relations. Sheinbaum, who enjoys an 80% approval rating, reaffirmed her commitment to Palestinian human rights as she welcomed the Palestinian Authority’s ambassador to Mexico, Nadya Rasheed.

The move carries particular significance given Sheinbaum’s Jewish heritage, challenging prevailing narratives about political and religious allegiances in global diplomacy. Her administration has openly criticized Israel’s attacks on Palestinian territories, aligning Mexico with other nations advocating for Palestinian self-determination.

    Another piece of great news from Mexico!

    But I guess for some people this will be proof that Jews can be Nazis too 🙄

      I think you mean something different from this, but there were actual Jewish Nazis during the (thankfully short-lived) Third Reich. And the Zionists that act like Nazis today sometimes consider themselves Jewish, though I question the compatibility of ethnic cleansing settler colonialism and Judaism.
