If Netanyahu rules out a Palestinian state and expands West Bank settlements, 'the world, including the British parliament, would have no option, but to recognize a Palestinian state,' says Nick Clegg.
British Deputy Prime Minister Nick Clegg has criticized Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu for reneging support for a two-state solution, saying that if the Israeli leader does not backtrack from those remarks, Britain would have no choice but to recognize a Palestinian state.
Clegg, the leader of the Liberal Democrats, called Netanyahu's vow not to create a Palestinian state "alarming," the Guardian reported Thursday.
Netanyahu, while campaigning Monday, said that if he were to be reelected, a Palestinian state would not be created, in a definite disavowal of his 2009 speech, in which he had voiced support for the principle of two states for two peoples.
Netanyahu has since been criticized for those remarks, and also for warning that Arabs were heading to the voting booths "in droves," by U.S. President Barack Obama and other world leaders.

So, if the palies don't backtrack from their remarks of pushing Israel into the Mediterranean, that would leave Britain no choice but to recognize the one state, Israel? Right? Right?
Yes, I wonder what our response will be when the illegals reach critical mass and DEMAND that the U.S. cede California, or Arizona, or Texas or all 3 to Mexico.
Or the drug Cartels start murdering citizens en masse, desroying property and bombing indiscriminately.hmmmmm?

Apparently the deputy PM likes seeing his name in the paper.
This is ironic coming from the brits.
How long did it take them to recognize an Irish state?
Northern Ireland?
The three biggest religions in the history of mankind converge on one spot. Jerusalem. The money, time, blood, sweat, and tears spent on both sides cause much of the hate towards Jewish people.
That or a blackened heart deceived by Satan is influenced to hate Gods chosen. I’m certainly not sure which. Hitler would have purged many other races and religions besides the Jewish. However the Jews were his foot in the door, because much of Germany could get behind segregating the Jewish, for whatever reason (fake grievances from tons of antisemitic Germans).
But still, born with a small deformity? Dead. Black? Dead. Arab? Dead. Asian? Dead. Indian? Dead. That would have been the future of the world if say the Germans had gotten an atomic bomb, before the US. Nazi Germany would have slowly culled most of mankind. Most of us would likely not be alive.
It is hard to wrap your head around the hate towards the Jews. It’s unreasonable, unfounded, irrational, illogical, and without intelligence. Anyone that hates Jews I usually write off as a monumental fool, and usually will go out of my way to not speak to, once their antisemitism is displayed.
“The three biggest religions in the history of mankind converge on one spot. Jerusalem.”
Must disagree. Jerusalem is holy to Jews and to Christians as a manifestation of the Living God.
Mecca is the epicenter of Islam’s worship of a false god Muslims call Allah. They claimed Jerusalem only as an afterthought to justify their conquest & erecting their triumphal mosques there. Mohammed’s dream that he flew up to the heavens on a horse launched from Jerusalem is another tall tale of Islam’s claim to that city.
ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ. Recognize whatever you wish, guys.
A great Briton, poet, philosopher, theologian and opium addict, once said “If you do not understand a man’s ignorance, presume yourself ignorant of his understanding.” What does Britain not understand? Nations are not made by proclamations and recognitions. They are built and maintained by blood, sweat and tears of the people who comrpise them. Israel was not created by the Balfour Declaration, or any UN or League of Nations resolution, nor by any exchanges of ambassadors. It grew organically over many decades, with pioneers risking malaria to drain swamps, working to exhaustion to cultivate fields and orchids, capitalists investing money to build settlements, silent resistance to Turkish tyranny, followed by open conflict in alliance with the British, then silent resistance to British tyranny, followed by open revolt, which ultimately was successful, and then an all-out war with our neighbors.
The “Palestinians” have done nothing except commit cowardly acts of murder, mostly aimed at civilians and non-combatants, and sling cart loads and truck loads and tanker loads of BS. Let the British declare whatever they want. It’s irrelevant. The reality of a Palestinian state doesn’t exist, and can’t be declared or recognized into existence.
OTT nonsense.
Tyranny......overemotive language.
Open revolt......no, it was terrorism.
Actually I like the rest of your post.
Whilst posts like yours are fine to read, unfortunately threads like this just end up with the spurious drivel of how anti-Semitic the British are etc etc.
...And Great Britain will have officially jumped the shark to become an overt enemy of God.
If the British Government had their way, as they intended, from the mid-1920s and forward ... the Jews would never have Israel today!
Read about the role he played.
And America did the square root of f*ck all to help Jews get a homeland.
Balfour an American was he?.
Doing nothing would have been preferable to putting Jews in British concentration camps after the war!
Hysterical nonsense, you make it sound as if the British ran the camps like the Nazis, they were just used as holding camps.
Yeah ... jailing all those who were going to their Homeland, the Jewish Homelamd that you PRETEND that the British Government supported ... NOT!!
The British blocked all those Jews from Europe, after the war and after they were released from German Concentration Camps from coming to the land, jailed them and especially jailed all the men of military age who could FIGHT OFF THE ARABS, making it so that the Jews would be hampered in trying to defend themselves against the Arabs!
SURE ... that sounds like a country who wants to HELP THE JEWS GET A HOMELAND!! ... LOL ...
” It is highly irresponsible of Obama and now UK to rush to “recognize” what seems to be a terrorist regimes running the so-called Palestinian territories.”
The UK is run by spineless, obtuse leaders. Just look at how they have allowed their populations to be balkanized. This alone tells you all you need to know about their “leaders”
I wouldnt worry too much about this. Its obviously a ploy to soothe the Arabs and put pressure on Israel for some more concessions, but Little Nicky Clegg is in no position to say what the British Parliament will or will not do. He doesnt speak for them now, and he certainly wont soon. There is an election in the UK in less than seven weeks and he will certainly be out of office, if not out of politics completely, as a result of that.
