Edelstein: Mercer's anti-Semitic remark one in long line by British MPs
Knesset Speaker Yuli Edelstein issued a strongly worded letter to his British counterpart, Speaker of the House of Commons John Bercow, following the anti-Semitic remarks of MP Patrick Mercer.
"Such intolerable statements should never be sounded, least of all by parliament members," Edelstein wrote adding Mercer's statement joins a long line of anti-Semitic remarks by British statesmen, "including the false attribution of racist, perverted and downright sick attitudes to the State of Israel."
