"We are very concerned about recent reports of Israeli settlement activity," Foreign Minister David Miliband. "The Roadmap is clear," he said, referring to the 2002 peace plan drawn up by U.S. President George W. Bush.

Protect Israel. Israel cannot talk”peace” with an enemy that is irrational.

Didn’t Hillary say that there are no illegal people?

Israel just tore one down the other day. Of course the Brit's are deliberately misrepresenting the issue, which pertains to illegal outposts, a couple dozen which house a few hundred, with the 250,000 or so living in legal settlements. And forgetting the 4,000 or so illegal Arab buildings.

I thought Israel is a sovereign government, and that the UN forbids interference in the internal affairs of other sovereign nations. Yes, even by the US or GB...

Israel resisted three wars of aggression by the animals on two legs, and the rules of war are clear: to the victor belong the spoils.

Or does GB claim to still be empowered by the UN to administer those areas of "palestine" not part of Israel?

I personally believe that Israel extends from the Jordan to the Mediterranean; exactly the same area, incidentally, as the useless "palestinians" (created in 1964) claim for the mythical state of "palestine".

Fine. Israel should call for an end of Anglo-Saxon Jute and Norman occupation of Britain.
