Ed Miliband attacks Israel

The Speech by Ed Miliband to Labour's Annual conference sadly has been overshadowed by the rather precious behaviour of his older brother.

However, the content of the speech with regard to Israel specifically that Israel must recognise the Palestinian right to statehood and his condemnation of the Gaza flotilla attack appears to be a significant and none to subtle change in tone towards the brutal occupiers which has been noted in Israel and by its supporters here in the UK.

London Muslim highlighted Ed's attendance at the Labour Friends of Palestine dinner and also the fact that his mum is a strong supporter of Jews for Justice in Palestine so perhaps these early signs are the beginning of a more just and equitable Labour Party policy towards Israel-Palestine.

  1. Ed Miliband will never win another election. Speak to labour party MP's & activists & they will confirm that. Labour's trade unions have shot the party in the foot.

    His views regarding Israel are typical of a Jew who has left the fold. I.e. fringe!

    God gave the land of Israel to the Jewish people for eternity. While its great for your cause that Ed has joined the anti Israel bandwagon it will not and cannot cancel the promise God made the Abraham in the Torah.

    Strange I don't hear voices calling for Jordan to become a Palestinian state when 75% of the population there is "Palestinian". Could that be because this is not a movement to give rights to "Palestinians" but rather to destroy Israel.
