Britain
UK gov't site removes minister's Israel 'land grab' claim
2011-08-28
Conservative Alan Duncan, minister for international development, claimed Israel deprives Palestinians of water in government video posted on his department website last month.
The usual Evil Israelis/Innocent Palestinians stuff.
During his visit to the Palestinian territories, Duncan signed a Memorandum of Understanding with Palestinian Authority Prime Minister Salam Fayyad pledging to tackle poverty. Britain is set to provide up to £349 million to support the Palestinians over the next four years.
Did he get his prime minister's agreement before signing? It seems to me his government is in drastic budget cutting mode, and adding line items oughtn't sit well with the voters...

BTW, anyone has seen photos of South Soudan's independence celebrations: the crowd was waving American and Israeli flags. Palestinians danced on 9/11.
