The Spin

Pro-Israel narrative

Unilateral recognition of Palestine would only be a boost for Hamas and terrorism. This kind of move will not bring peace and security to the region but will in fact drive things in the opposite direction.

Pro-Palestine narrative

France's move to recognize Palestine, if implemented, would be a step in the right direction for safeguarding the rights of Palestinians. It would also generate progress towards a two-state solution with Israel.
