Al Jazeera: UK’s ‘Puppet PM’ Starmer Bows to Trump — ‘Hamas Is a Terrorist Organization With No Role in Palestine’s Future’
September 20, 2025
UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer bows to Trump, branding Hamas a “terrorist group” with no place in Palestine’s future.
This is not statesmanship — it’s complicity.
When leaders echo Washington’s script while ignoring genocide, famine, and the cries of an occupied people, they stand on the wrong side of history.
EXPOSE THEM EVERYDAY!

English Script:
Reporter: Prime Minister Starmer, if you feel so strongly about officially recognizing Palestine for statehood, why are you waiting for President Trump to leave the country? Why can’t you just do it right now? And isn’t there a risk in rewarding Hamas with that?
Keir Starmer: Well, let me be really clear about Hamas. They’re a terrorist organization, who can have no part in any future governance in Palestine. What happened on October the 7th was the worst attack since the Holocaust. We have extended family in Israel. I understand firsthand the psychological impact that that had across Israel. So I know exactly where I stand in relation to Hamas. Hamas, of course, don’t want a two-state solution. They don’t want peace. They don’t want a ceasefire. I’m very clear where I stand on Hamas. On the question of recognition. I made my position clear at the end of July as to the timing, which has got nothing to do with this state visit. And I’ve discussed it with the president, as you would expect amongst two leaders who respect each other and like each other and want to bring about a better solution.
