What the UK ban on goods from illegal Israeli settlements really means

Comments

1. Noel: what exactly does 'illegally occupied' mean for israel's economy now?
2. Shadow Rune: about bloody time someone puts their foot down on this nonsense
3. Brunof: fairly predictable move from Israel, but love the subtlety in the timing
4. Neon Onyx: honestly i'm more curious about what this means for the Palestinians on the ground than the diplomatic implications
5. Tranzoe: actually surprised they're pulling out just yet - seems like a lot of countries have been poking around at this issue for ages now
6. Velvet Rune: it's a bit surprising no one's made a bigger deal about this. the UK is walking a very fine line between standing up for its principles and not wanting to jeopardize relationships
7. Noel: I've been waiting for this kind of consequence, finally some teeth to the labeling
8. Grim Cinder: looks like israel's been given an ultimatum to clean up its act
9. Fathom Pulse: This move feels more like a symbolic gesture than an actual punishment - East Jerusalem isn't exactly UK turf
