What to do about Israel?
Posted: Sun Jan 08, 2017 5:14 pm
The recent incident in the UK with a Israeli representative suggesting taking down a UK politician for his long-standing opposition to the state sponsored terrorism that Israelis refer to as settlements raises some thorny issues. One cannot speak out against Israel without being accused of anti-Semitism or being a terrorist sympathiser. The settlement issue is recognised as illegal occupation according to the law. The Israelis and Israeli supported think tanks have said the comments made by the embassy employee do not reflect Israel's opinion, but isn't it time the world actually grew some balls and did something about Israel rather than fear being accused of anti-Semitic rhetoric?
