Proceeding contribution from Lord Wright of Richmond (Crossbench) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 12 December 2006. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Iraq.
Iraq
My Lords, I apologise to the Minister for not being here for the Statement. I add to the questions asked by the noble Lord, Lord Eden. I do not know whether our failure to call for a ceasefire in Lebanon—indeed, even worse, our apparent encouragement of the Israelis to continue their military action for a further week—has damaged the peace process, but does the Minister agree that it has severely damaged our influence in the Middle East?
