ISRAEL plans to build 1,600 new Jewish homes in disputed East Jerusalem.

President Barack Obama has called for a total settlement freeze, but Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu ignores him, counting on the pro-Israel lobbying organisation, the American Israel Public Affairs Committee, to force him to back down.

Muslim hostility to the West will continue as long as these illegal acts continue.

Britain continues to lose lives in Afghanistan.

Our time and energy would be better spent not only condemning Israel, but demanding it ceases its continued breach of UN resolutions, its humiliating treatment of the Palestinians.
