Video - Israel's UK Ambassador: Those Calling for Balfour Apology Deny Jewish People's Right to Sovereignty
(Twitter) Mark Regev - Addressing the Board of Deputies of British Jews on Sunday, Israeli Ambassador Mark Regev said, "The Balfour Declaration says: 'His Majesty's Government views with favor the establishment in Palestine of a national home for the Jewish people.' If you believe that the Jewish people have no right to a national home, what is your position? You don't believe in peace. You don't believe in reconciliation. You believe that the Jewish people have no right to national self-determination in any part of their ancient homeland." "It's not about final borders or peace between Israel and its neighbors. It's not about the future of the settlements. It's not even about the final state of Jerusalem in peace. You're saying there should be no Jewish state. You're saying there should be no Israel. So people who believe the Balfour Declaration is wrong are exposing themselves for the extremists that they are."
