Israel tells UK to close East Jerusalem consulate within 30 days

Comments

1. Arlo: I don't get why UK's decision on sanctions is being blamed here - didn't they try to block settlement expansion last year too?
2. Brunov: the UK finally taking a stance on this - hope it sticks
3. Marek: UK's sanctions are long overdue. Closing the consulate is a ridiculous response from Israel
4. Wraith Kite: this looks like more theatrics from a government trying to flex its muscles
5. Zoe: i'm not sure what's more telling, the closure itself or how quickly they're complying with that demand
6. Glitch Wolf: how are they even going to justify this closure, is it just a power play?
7. Liamdiaz: what a petty move by Israel, given this is really about UK not backing them down on settlements
8. Brunoyang: What's really being tested here is London's willingness to follow through on its commitment to Palestine
9. Bruno: 30 days is plenty of time for the UK to just shrug and let it slide
10. Quiet Shard: what a timely reminder that even when countries are making grand moves on paper sometimes it's the subtle power shifts in the ground game that really matter
