I can't understand why Western governments are still not, you know, condemning what's happening to him and calling for his release.
Because what will the recognition of the Palestinian state mean if they're not willing to take the extra steps to actually apply the two-state solution which they support on the ground?

You know, this condemn game, I don't play that game.
