Proceeding contribution from Jeremy Corbyn (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 18 July 2006. It occurred during Ministerial statement on G8 Summit.


G8 Summit

The Prime Minister conceded that the Israeli actions in Lebanon and Gaza were disproportionate; if Israel carries on destroying the airport, roads, water supplies, electricity plant and a lot of civilian infrastructure—and killing civilians fleeing for their lives—what sanctions does he think should be applied against Israel to persuade it to desist from the expansionist intentions that it seems to be pursuing?
