I am not happy with many of the answers given by the ambassador. However, as he did offer in a recent letter to meet me privately, I am happy to do so. It is welcome that he is here and has been made aware of the strong views of the committee on the issue. These views are not anti-Israel. While they may be pro-Palestinian, it does not follow that they are anti-Israel. It is welcome that the ambassador has engaged in dialogue with us. We should continue that dialogue.
