Stephen Pollard is 100% correct. "Hague is no friend of Israel".

Stephen Pollard,

Well done for spotting it.

I will be calling Mr Hague, William Chamberlain, from now on.

"unfettered access" to bring in missiles to hit Israel and lead to another war?

"We urgently need to see unfettered access to Gaza"

In other words, Israelis have no right to defend themselves. More like Hitler than Chamberlain.

I wonder how he would feel if we got together an aid shipment for the Taliban - "We demand unfettered access".
Stinking English hypocrite.

Israel cast as pre-war Czechoslovakia.
I'm very sorry that Hague is sending out these messages of comfort to Israel's enemies.

William Hague needs to issue a new statement on the flotilla incident

When William Hague released his first statement about the confrontation this morning we didn't know a lot about what had happened. With growing evidence that the conflict was driven by a violent attack on Israeli soldiers by the "peace activists" on the boat, he needs to issue a new statement that better reflects that reality.

While it is reasonable that the statement earlier today talks about discovering "whether enough was done to prevent deaths and injuries", it does not properly balance that with a condemnation of attempts to force the Israeli Defence Force to use lethal force. And it does not reflect the evidence that the soldiers were responding to a clear threat to their lives.

Hague's current statement, despite the diplomatic language, is unfair on Israel and needs to be replaced. By suggesting that Israel is diplomatically isolated, it will encourage Turkey in actions that would constitute a massive escalation, such as sending new ships under guard from the Turkish navy. That would be incredibly dangerous and very much against Britain's interests

I heard some story that William Chamberlain is a member of Conservative Friends of Israel. Well, with friends like that....,

You poor things,so the Lib dems and Labour are against you, and now the Tories.
I am so sorry. It really does sound like everyone has it in for you.I wonder why that is?

If it is so dreadful here you could always move to Israel. They would welcome you there with open arms because the Palestinians will soon outnumber them, and what will the world say then?

Tom,
I have given my UK passport to Mossad and am stuck in South Africa for The World Cup. Would you like my ticket for the final?

I look forward to Mossad absailing onto my roof in the middle of the night. "Cup of tea chaps?"

Oh well, you will have to watch it on TV in lovely Old Blighty. Perhaps you can invite Jenny Tonge?

"Oh Jenny, it is such a pity that Iran isn't in the final!

Nice one!

BD, Wee Willie was 17 when he joined the Conservative Friends of Israel. I think at present he bears the mark of the last man to sit on him ...

Yvetta,

My guess is that William Chamberlain is now in cahoots with the foreign office. Historically it has always been anti-zionist.
