Israel has approved building 20 new apartments in an Arab neighborhood in east Jerusalem. The move risks racheting up tension locally as well as widening a rift with Washington. (March 24)

Britain: Israeli settlements are 'illegal' and 'obstacle' to peace

By Haaretz Service 04/11/2009

British Foreign Secretary David Miliband on Tuesday criticized Israel's construction of settlements in the West Bank as "illegal" and said they represented an "obstacle" in the path of peace.

I think it's time to take Israeli Govt. to the Hague for numerous Violations of the Geneva/Hague and UN Security Council Resolutions.

Keep building Israel!!!! Jerusalem is YOUR Capitol and no one has the right to stop you building it up. I hope more and more Jews will make aliyah. I love Zion because my LORD loves Zion and it is His chief joy. Yeshua HaMashiach will reign on the throne of David forever in Jerusalem-the only eternal city.

Isrealis seems to be only people who have guts to stand against the extremists and win. No wonder fanatics hate them. May God bless Jews abundantly

@AcePilot2009 Hey, I realize the Jews have suffered but sense the creation of Israel they have a lot of innocent blood on their hands. An eye for an eye leaves everyone blind _ Martin Luther King. The Israeli government have slaughtered a lot of innocent Palestinians. It wasn't even their land to begin with.

Good! I look forward to Israel building apartments in new territories like Iran, Seria and Saudia Arabia.

Israel isn't going anywhere. You might as well abandon that pipe dream...

The reality is there are two peoples- the Jews and the Palestinians- who both have a historical claim to this land, a right to independence and a need for their own homeland. The only just resolution is two states for two peoples.

@AcePilot2009

don't worry about Obama. He disagrees with Netanyahu but he is still a strong supporter of Israel. And if he betrays his promise to support Israel (which I don't think he would even consider doing) it would be the end of his political career in the US. The American people, democrats and republicans alike, are united in their support of Israel.

I agree Israelis have every right to build in Jerusalem, but forcing people out of their homes is never right. Building in E. Jerusalem is fine, as long as no one else has to leave their home.

"forever victims"?

NO, not anymore.

Israel is fully capable of protecting its citizens and will not hesitate to do so, if the need arises. The IDF is the strongest army in the middle east and one of the strongest on the planet. The days when terrorists and fascists could murder with impunity are *over*.
