Former British Minister Tony Benn criticizes US support to Israel
Israel-UK, Politics, 1/12/2005
Former British Minister Tony Benn criticized the unlimited US support to Israel, calling on the US to reconsider its policy vis-a-vis the Middle East.
"If the U.S. seriously reviews its Middle Eastern policy through building up right relations with Arab countries and recognizing the international resolutions, particularly regarding the Palestinian cause, Israel will abide by the will of peace based on justice, not occupation," Benn said in an interview with Syrian TV.
Benn, who was elected an MP in Britain between 1951- 2001, criticized also British Prime Minister Tony Blair for accepting the US policies, particularly occupying Iraq, adding that the British people strongly opposed the war on Iraq and sympathize with the Palestinian people.
