British deputy PM: If Netanyahu rejects two-state solution, U.K. will recognize Palestine [Israel]
Haaretz ^ | Thursday, March 19, 2015 | Staff Report

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.

The end times, biblical prophecy, world events are going into overtime, snow balling, things are starting to happen at a fast pace.

I don’t know if any one has noticed, since new years ?
The beginning of 2015 time has accelerated, time is speeding up.

The bible says for the sake of the elect God will cut those days short.

The whole conflict is based upon the fact that the Arabs - Islamic Arabs, want the Jews out of Jerusalem and they have said time and time and time and time again, they are willing to die for it. That’s all anyone has to know when it comes to this conflict. Judaism which is thousands of years older than the devils religion Islam, Judaism which has been in Jerusalem thousands of years before Mohammed was even a drop a ejaculate crawling down his dog mother paw, and THEY have the audacity to claim Jerusalem is theirs? F them and their Satanic cult. Israel takes up 2/10th of one percent of land in the entire middle east. The rest is all Muslim dominated and they are demanding Jews leave? They have the audacity to claim that Jews are oppressive?

Time seems to be speeding up for sure, and to me Obama is the anti-Christ, absolutely. It is said June 6 2016 the anti-Christ will reveal himself for what he is. That person is Obama. As his term comes near an end, he is going to unleash hell upon the world.

I think you need to learn a bit more nuanced history of that time. Nobody was saint nor sinner completely.

Firstly, lets remember WHO fought the Nazis and liberated those Jews: the British. Lets also remember it was the British who made the declaration of a Jewish homeland. Not America or France or Germany or Russia.


Valid points to be taken under consideration; Britain took in 10,000 or so Jewish children in a special Kindertransport (Children's Transport) program.

About 85,000 Jewish refugees (out of 120,000 Jewish emigrants) reached the United States between March 1938 and September 1939, but this level of immigration was far below the number seeking refuge. In late 1938, 125,000 applicants lined up outside US consulates hoping to obtain 27,000 visas under the existing immigration quota. By June 1939, the number of applicants had increased to over 300,000. Most visa applicants were unsuccessful.

In a highly publicized event in May–June 1939, the United States refused to admit over 900 Jewish refugees who had sailed from Hamburg, Germany, on the St. Louis. The St. Louis appeared off the coast of Florida shortly after Cuban authorities cancelled the refugees' transit visas and denied entry to most of the passengers, who were still waiting to receive visas to enter the United States. Denied permission to land in the United States, the ship was forced to return to Europe. The governments of Great Britain, France, the Netherlands, and Belgium each agreed to accept some of the passengers as refugees. Of the 908 St. Louis passengers who returned to Europe, 254 (nearly 28 percent) are known to have died in the Holocaust. 288 passengers found refuge in Britain. Of the 620 who returned to the continent, 366 (just over 59 percent) are known to have survived the war.

Thank you for your reply.

Please note I said the US did little in 1938 to help Jewish refugees, which is correct. I was specific on that year as I am of course aware that the next year and onwards the United States took in many Jewish refugees, which tends to be ignored.

I am not critical of the US solely. The West in general could have done more. Britain included.

When I wrote "Valid points to be taken under consideration;" I actually meant that I found your comments which I listed just before were "Valid points to be taken under consideration" and was in no way criticizing them.

update — Clegg keeps his seat in parliament (for now), but is out of the coalition and dumped on his big ass into the opposition.
