It’s been one day. So far it’s done nothing. I’m gonna give it maybe a month, but if these countries’ aid to Israel doesn’t stop by then, I’ll know it was an empty gesture. I’m not going to consider this a job well done unless they give me reason to. I’m not really in the habit of giving nations the benefit of the doubt.
Right but between recognizing Palestine or not recognizing Palestine, wouldn’t recognizing it be better?
If it stops the genocide, sure. If it distracts everyone from the fact that they’re still supporting a nation doing genocide then nah.
What do you feel it does?

I was more wondering why people don’t consider this better than nothing. Imo this is at worst an empty gesture.
From my first comment:
If it’s a distraction or an attempt to placate people and get them to stop caring about genocide in Palestine, it’s worse than an empty gesture.
I want to believe it’s better than nothing, but I won’t let myself do that until these countries prove themselves.
