Bravo UK and France. [/quote] Even empty words are better than the US who veto's everything it can and outright supports Netanyahu. Then you have the people who act like Obama isn't an Isreal lover when he only increases "aid" to them. [/quote]

"The Foreign Office went on to again urge the Israelis to drop the settlement plan announced by prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu, saying: “We deplore the recent Israeli government decision to build 3,000 new housing units and unfreeze development in the E1 block. This threatens the viability of the two-state solution.”
Earlier, officials described Israeli press reports that Britain - together with France - was planning to recall its ambassador from Tel Aviv as ”speculation“.
However, a spokesman made clear that there would be a strong response if the plan went ahead.
”We have called on the Israeli government to reconsider. We have told the Israeli government that if they go ahead with their decision there will be a strong reaction,“ the spokesman said."
Let's see if they actually do anything to stop Israel's expansion, I very much suspect it's empty words as usual. We can always hope though.
