61. World-- worry about racist muslims !!!!
Don Rosenberg ,   Palatine USA   (05.24.13)
muslims are killing each other and others around the world and the EU and other gentile countries are worried about Israel building on their land, yes their land, not the fakestinians occupying our land. To all EU members, "Mind your own business and deal with your racism and bigotry".
62. SECURITY is .....
Sam Tayar ,   montreal   (05.24.13)
Failure to do so, he said, would mean Israel will struggle to maintain the two characteristics it holds dearest - that it remains both a Jewish state and a democracy. Dearest??????????? Wrong! Security IS #1. Sorry to be so crude but you ARE a fool.
63. Idiocy
william k king ,   Canada   (05.24.13)
There already is 2 states or a second state 1.5 million Arabs strong,called Gaza,Hague is as phony as Abbas,this is total nonsense.//shalom
64. #44 some perspective
(05.24.13)
It seems that the Muslim boy was taking revenge on UK troops who massacre innocents in Afghanistan, UK troops sent by Hague. He is just deflecting blame for his own responsibility
65. Hague
MR   (05.24.13)
What happened in the capital of your country is probably the most daring and insulting form of terrorism that ever happened in any country. The assassins expressed dissatisfaction with your government. You should hurry back home and see how you deal with their complaints. That would be a true lecture. Speaking of which, why did your police shoot them instead of peacefully arrest and trial them?
66. I wonder, does Hague have British support?
Israel will not fall   (05.24.13)
You are all going to need Israel to remain steadfast and strong for your own good. UK should get rid of this silly useless man and replace him with someone with a pair. It's going to get real hairy over there in Europe. Blaming Israel is not an insurance policy. More and more people will be beheaded and blown up in the UK - be prepared, and stop pussyfooting around.
67. The real reason...
Jose ,   USA   (05.24.13)
that Israel is "loosing support" in the UK, is because of the rapidly growing Islamist populations in the UK. This is a country where it's own soldiers are beheaded by Islamist on the streets of its capital in broad daylight. Clean up your own house Mr. Hague before lecturing others about where they might build a kindergarten.
68. Kind of reminds me of the story about Nero
Arnold ,   Montreal-Canada   (05.24.13)
The saying goes that Nero played his Lyre while Rome burned. A mythical story but one in which it showed the leader not caring about what was happening around him as he started to lose control of the country. Well to me this is the same thing. Europe is in the throes of economic meltdown , immigration numbers are out of control followed by huge 1st and 2nd generations of children from the earlier immigrants still not blending in with "Christian" Europe. Neighborhoods of major cities are seeing problems in the streets where even the police fear to go. All this happening and Hague is telling Israel to smarten up or else.
69. Common British support Israel
John Smith ,   UK   (05.24.13)
The common everyday man on the streeet has a strong support for Israel.It is only Left wing trendy Guardian readers who do not.William Hague and his coalition government are so out of touch with how the people on the street feel and how people here in Uk are fed up with their soft touch government policies with regards to radical Muslims.We support you Israel and fully understand and appreciate what you have to go through !!!!
70. #57 Ha ha ha!
Ben David Shlomo   (05.24.13)
You are funny! There is a glut of natural gas at the moment, and the last I looked, Israel had lots of sand....but NO oil. But you are amusing mate!
71. 2 States? Hey, with the muslims in London
Yosi ,   Gilo-Jerusalem   (05.24.13)
maybe they could create another muslim state in the good old UK? Why not, the muslims should get what they ask for. You know, justice and all. As is being said by them, "we demand our right to kill anyone that disagrees with us". Good job blokes.
72. It's pretty obvious that ynet publishes...
Robert ,   Australia   (05.24.13)
....UK related articles purely as a vehicle for Jews to express their inbred anti British bile. Most of the talkback responses are dripping with ignorance.
73. Brits have always supported the Arabs over Israel
Dan Kelso   (05.24.13)
A great article from Ynet which details this. http://www.ynetnews.com/articles/0,7340,L-4371351,00.html In the service of the Palestinians Op-ed: In light of its dark past, Britain's involvement in building of PA's army very problematic Elyakim Haetzni 04.23.13,
74. Support!
Nachum Ben Daniel ,   Ra'anana, Israel   (05.24.13)
Yes, I remember the last time Britain supported Israel - the Balfour Declaration.
75. 59 Stuart Wragg
(05.24.13)
Agreed with you. All the problems, violence, killing, burning cars, etc,. are done by the peaceful religion called ISLAM. Another European have problem in Sweden. Enjoy the violence SVENSKA !!!!! and smell the burning cars, & others.
76. Jews
Justjams ,   Jerusalem   (05.24.13)
You people ruin the name of judaism by calling israel a jewish state, palestinians were here when jews arrived , if god wanted you to have this country he would of gave it to you, but no he wanted jews to murder and steal an demolish in his name? True jews were here before israel was formed.
77. a different view...
Yossi ,   London,UK   (05.24.13)
Mr.Hague is telling the truth : If the situation remains as it is,Israel will have more Arabs than Jews in it so demographicly it's bad for us. The settlements are problematic because when the UN divided the land of Israel,these areas were meant to be given to the arabs. These facts do not change the ugly truth that the "palestinians" attacked Israel to destroy the new country and that's why they are in this position now. Peace can only be when there's a TRUE willing of the Palestinians to accept a Viable Jewish state along side them ! Honestly...don't hold your breath !!! God Bless Israel. Shabbat Shalom.
78. The rest of the world
Joe ,   USA   (05.24.13)
Look, the rest of the world will always hate Israel as long as there's one Jew in it. If Israel were to stop construction, there's another long list of items to blame Israel for. "Two State Solution"? Are you kidding me? It's always been a charade. Israel wants ONLY peace. They live is a rotten neighborhood. However, the Arabs want one thing only, which is a one state solution not to include Israel or even one Jew. Anyone who doesn't CLEARLY see that is an idiot. Look up the word "TAQIYYA." They're not going to tell you what they REALLY want
79. When did UK Ever Support Israel?
Koose E Mack ,   NY NY   (05.24.13)
The history between GB and the Jews is not exactly one of mutual admiration. There was always a history of endemic Anti-Semitism in Europe and Britain was certainly no exception! As so many of the commentors stated: Europe and GB have their own problems to deal with; namely ever increasing populations of Muslims (with radicals among them). That certainly is one of the factors effecting Israel's "popularity"
80. after i've visited new zealand and australia....
(05.24.13)
i dont think the british can say anything about this situation
81. Real progress is PASSIONATELY claiming our land.
Chaim ,   Israel   (05.24.13)
Forging agreements with genocidal terrorists to cede our land is not progress. That is lunacy. True progress is claiming our land and massively settling our land. The vast sane majority of Israel is not going to let Israel be turned into a 9 mile wide concentration camp to win the praise of enemies and false friends.
82. #7. Even the P.A. knows Israel owns Judea and Samaria.
Chaim ,   Israel   (05.24.13)
That is why the P.A. refuses to debate the matter, as M.K. Danny Ayalon challenged them to. The legal truth is overwhelmingly on Israel's side.
83. #31 Frank: Yous is the comment I have been waiting for!
Dee Bee ,   Israel   (05.24.13)
Britain has NEVER supported Israel. Britain blocked Cyprus and prevented Holocaust Survivors from the Nazi Concentration Camps leaving the British Concentration Camps to come to Israel! The Attlee Government even wanted to send the Jews back to Auschwitz, Bergen-Belsen, Dachau and so son "until a solution could be found". Britain abstained in 1947 or the Partition Resolution, armed the Arabs to kill Jews and has NEVER voted with Israeli in the UN Security Council. Always either an abstention or against is the British way. Even in the 1956 Suez Crisis, allied with Israel, then due to Arab oil, stabbed Israel in the back! So Foreign Secretary, where is the support we are losing in a country with inbred Antisemitism starting in Buckingham Palace? The words of HRH The Duke of Edinburgh on a private visit to Israel in 1994 to honor his mother bestowed with the title of Righteous Among the Nations, were "we had reservations about Jews" illustrate the point! So Foreign Secretary, Britain supports the Arabs and kowtows to the Muslims but please tell us who committed the atrocity of 7/7 in London, who blew up PAN AM 103 over Lockerbie, who planned to blow up British Airliners over the Atlantic, who wanted to kill Prince Harry in Afghanistan and who hacked Drummer Rigby to death shouting "Allah Akbar", made his young wife a widow and deprived his little boy of his daddy? Were these Jews, Sir? No! They were and are all Muslims and some of them born in Britain!
84. Islam in Europe
(05.24.13)
The sleeping nation of Europe, are in deep sleep. There are thousands upon thousands of Islamic nation all over Europe are just waiting signal to attack. Sooner or later there will be big explosion all over Europe. In Sweden there are riots by Islamic nation.
85. Two State Solution
Max ,   washington dc   (05.24.13)
A more realistic "Two State" Solution based on current events is to divide England and London into a Native State and those that Hate and Kill the Natives - : You Know Who - Whose Name You Cannot Say except for Harry Potter, no one in England has a clue!
86. Do you know all the Illegal building going on in Londonistan
Alan ,   SA   (05.24.13)
Readers do you know that on one subdivision/residential plot ,the new immigrants are building Wendy Houses,rooms big kennels etc to accomodate their brethren. On one tiny piece of land twenty or thirty Illegals or legals are accomodated by the landlord...Rats and TB and other pestilences are beiong cultivated NOW THATS something for Hague to do something about Its ALL OVER london. by the slum landlords But Kerry and Hague wont do anything about those settlements
87. #7, Michael, the UN General Assembly is not a legal forum
Jake   (05.24.13)
It is a political forum, where nations vote in blocs in line with their political interests, and not according to what is legal or moral. There are the Arab and Islamic blocs, which always vote against Israel, the "non-aligned bloc" which votes with the Arabs, etc. Israel is not part of any regional bloc, so no regional bloc stands to gain anything politically by voting against the Arabs and Moslems in Israel's favor. The condemnations of Israel at the UN have nothing to do with International Law. A mutated, fraudulent interpretation of the 4th Geneva Convention is used as an excuse, in a way that would never stand up in an unbiased, apolitical court of law on the face of the earth.
88. Hague: Israel losing support in UK over settlements
George Weiss ,   Teaneck, USA   (05.24.13)
Better to lose UK support (if it ever existed) than to lose the country. Also, there has never been a more colonialist country than the UK, so how can they give advice.
89. Hague: Israel losing support in UK over settlements
George Weiss ,   Teaneck, USA   (05.24.13)
The English themselves are occupiers. give the land back to original Celts and then we can talk about the palestinians.
90. Listen up. Neither Hague nor the UK is any model to follow!
Harry Wright ,   UK   (05.24.13)
So whether Israel is losing or gaining support in the UK is a non-issue and has no traction. Right now, Hague and the UK are overseeing the process of relinquishing the UK to foreigners in general and Islamists in particular. Much territory has already been ceded to these foreigners, with many enclaves scattered throughout, where the indigenous folks including protective services dare not even enter. Worse yet, the heavily burdened taxpayers are forced to support these aliens and pay to house them and indeed, the aliens enjoy far better facilities than the taxpayers - a real millstone around the necks of the taxpayers! Israel is claiming and utilizing its territory while the UK is giving up theirs. Hague should be ashamed to comment on Israel. Rather, he should concentrate on the mess in the UK, where people are no longer safe to walk the streets in broad daylight.
