Britain, backed up by France, is reportedly poised to take action over the Israel settlement expansion decision, a ruthless attempt to punish Palestine for its victory at UN Assembly.

Israel Palestine Dispute / NationalTurk – Israel could not tolerate the fact that Palestinian Authority’s status was upgraded to non-member observer state at United Nations General Assembly after a UN vote. The jewish country will expand settlement areas in Palestine.

Israels settlement expansion move in Palestine territory will draw some reaction from European countries, who always backed Israel over Palestine or stayed mum in previous conflict. According to s senior European diplomat, this time it won’t just be condemnation, there will be real action taken against Israel.

Britain has confirmed that it is considering severe actions to protest Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s vicious decision to move settlement construction ahead in the area known as E1, between Ma’aleh Adumim and Jerusalem.

And now the UK has summoned Daniel Taub, Israel’s ambassador in London over the plans to expand settlement building in the occupied Palestinian territories.

A UK Foreign Office spokesman said: “The Foreign Secretary William Hague has consistently made it very clear to Daniel Taub that settlement building, such as the recent Israeli government decision to build 3,000 new housing units, threatens the two-state solution and makes progress through negotiations harder to achieve.
