Sanctions?
Or at least stop selling them arms?
Edit: well, this is a milquetoast start
In his statement to parliament, Miliband said the UK government would enact:
An import ban on goods from illegal settlements in the occupied territories and a new ban for arms licences and other exports that “materially contribute to the occupation”
A comprehensive sanctions regime against providing services such as construction or financing for Israeli settlements and a ban on advertising them in the UK
Personal sanctions against key individuals accused of promoting settler violence.
A new ban for arms licences and other exports that “materially contribute to the occupation”.
In response, the Israeli foreign minister, Gideon Saar, announced the closure of the UK consulate in Jerusalem and that 12 British MPs and activists – including Jeremy Corbyn and Labour MP Diane Abbott – would be banned from entering Israel.
Well, idk. It's kinda good when legislators go see the occupation in person
In the Commons, the foreign secretary said the government would now take the official position that Israel’s occupation of the West Bank was unlawful in its entirety
Always has been.
Military occupation becomes a war crime when you move your civilian population into the occupied areas.
Miliband said he was taking the action as foreign secretary but also as a “proud British Jew” with relatives who had found safety in Israel after the Holocaust. “I am proud of my Jewishness and unwavering in my support for the state of Israel,” he said
Ugh, you had me till the end. There's nothing wrong with following the long tradition to being an anti Zionist Jew. Fuck those terrorist assholes. We can live in peace in Palestine without a Jewish terrorist State.
