(Jerusalem Post) Editorial - The decision by the UK, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and Norway to sanction two Israeli ministers is an unprecedented diplomatic step: sanctioning ministers of a democratic ally not for their actions but for their rhetoric. This holds Israel to a standard no other country is held to. For the first time, five democratic countries sanctioned elected officials from another democracy. What arrogance! Who gets to decide when rhetoric becomes grounds for international punishment? Australia's Prime Minister Anthony Albanese said that comments by the sanctioned ministers are an "impediment" to a two-state solution. Well, 85% of Jewish Israelis, according to a recent INSS poll, now oppose a two-state solution. Why? Because they've been mugged by reality - first by the Second Intifada and more recently by Oct. 7. The vast majority of Israelis no longer see two states as a viable path to peace, not because of ideology, but because of bitter experience. These countries have no problem sitting down with Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas, whose government pays monthly salaries to terrorists who murder Israelis. 2025-06-12 00:00:00Full Article
