Rejected petition The Prime Minsister should withdraw UK support for Israel
More details
The Prime Minister has just anounced that Israel has the full support of the United Kingdom in its attack on the Palestinian population of Gaza [http://www.itv.com/news/update/2014-07-09/prime-minister-uk-staunchly-supports-israel/]
According to the Independent [ http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/middle-east/israelgaza-conflict-80-per-cent-of-palestinians-killed-by-israeli-strikes-are-civilians-un-report-says-9606397.html ] about 80% of the 200+ Palestinian casualties have been civilians, and 25% children.
As of July 15th, only 1 Israeli civilian has been killed by Hamas rockets.
How can the Prime Minister support the disproportionate use of force against one of the most densly populated urban areas in the Middle East?
Sign this petition if you want the Prime Minister to withdraw his comments of support.
