Yes I know. I did not expect them to do anything but continue to support Israel anyway, so any kind of gesture is better than nothing.
I would have preferred a real recognition and a real push to do anything to stop it. But like I said they have no teeth so I'm surprised he bites this "hard"

Is it better than nothing though? Or is it just trying to placate the domestic outcry?

It certainly is better than signing new armament deals with them. It may be a facade for their voters, but I'll take a symbolic gesture where the issue is talked about instead of criminalizing things like "Palestinian Action" (as they do in the UK) any day.

That's true; doing too little is definitely better than actively doing more harm like some countries (such as the UK) are doing.
