    A British Jewish community website, JC Online, reported that Livni cancelled her visit scheduled for this weekend out of concerns that pro-Palestinian lawyers would try ask for her arrest.

    Livni was slated to speak at the Jewish National Fund’s Vision 2010 conference held in Hendon, northwest of London. According to the report, Livni was also due to meet with Prime Minister Gordon Brown for private talks.

    Livni’s office denied these reports. Her office reported to Ynet: “The invitation to the annual JNF conference was turned down by us two weeks ago because the schedule meetings with the government figures in London could not take place close to the conference and would have necessitated a longer-than-planned absence from Israel.”

    Livni’s office also said, “The opposition chairwoman is proud of all her decisions regarding Operation Cast Lead. The operation achieved its objectives to protect the citizens of Israel and to reinstate Israel’s deterrence capability. Livni will continue to present this stance everywhere in the world.

    “Hamas is not a dialogue partner, and we must therefore take forceful action against them, while engaging in negotiations with moderate elements. As such, no comparison between IDF soldiers and terrorists can be made. This is Livni’s position whether or not an arrest warrant was issued, which is something we are as of yet unaware of.”

    The Foreign Ministry reported that it did not recommend that Livni cancel a trip to any destination.

    I’m not at all a fan of Livni, but we need to start issuing warrants for the arrest of British leaders for their ‘war crimes’ against us back in the 30’s and 40’s… They’re asking for it.

    Utterly ridiculous. The Palestinians run an utterly lawless kleptocracy, and are using the legal systems of other countries to undermine Israel. While nobody should expect any better from the Palestinians, one should expect more from allegedly civilized nations like the UK.

    If the Uk wants to judge war crimes they should look at their war crimes in Afghan and Iraq, they killed many more civilians than Israel

    we need to start raising money for a legal fund to aggressively pursue every single palestinian who makes inciteful speeches and have arrest warrants issued for a whole host of potential crimes.

    Maybe Alan Dershowitz is looking for some good pro bono work.

    The Dershenator. He’ll be Back.
