Britain "Losing Focus" on the Threat Posed to Israel by Hamas
(Telegraph-UK) Edward Malnick - British Foreign Secretary Lord Cameron is "losing focus" on the threat posed to Israel by Hamas, Lord Pannick, a leading King's Counsel in the House of Lords, has suggested, as he urged the Government to face up to the "political and military reality" in the region. Lord Pannick said he was concerned that recent decisions and statements by the Foreign Office demonstrated a "failure to recognize that Israel really has no other option than to continue the war against Hamas." He said he hopes Lord Cameron "will reconsider a return to an approach that understands the problems that Israel faces and its vital need to do all it can to reduce the military capabilities of Hamas."
