Proceeding contribution from Baroness Falkner of Margravine (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Friday, 11 February 2011. It occurred during Debate on Middle East and North Africa.


Middle East and North Africa

I fear that the noble Lord was not listening carefully to my remarks. I am absolutely no apologist for anyone who seeks the destruction of Israel. It is for Israel’s survival that I urge that it sits down and talks to its opponents. As I made very clear in my comments on Northern Ireland, we have to do so with people who we do not like on the whole.
