Proceeding contribution from Richard Younger-Ross (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 15 January 2009. It occurred during Debate on Gaza.


Gaza

My hon. Friend has made the point that the Israelis are not learning lessons, and that their actions strengthen not just their enemies but their enemies who are extremists. The invasion of Lebanon led to a strengthening of Hezbollah, and not just in Lebanon: Hezbollah posters were seen in Ramallah for the first time. Is that not a lesson that the Israelis need to learn?
