I thank Mr. Shatter very much. Earlier, he spoke a little about the peace process. He might be able to tell I am from the North. Regarding our own peace in Northern Ireland, the Mitchell principles set out that peace negotiations can work only when all parties agree to ceasefire activity, having regard to international law. In the context of what we are seeing now, Israel is quite literally pouring concrete on Palestinian land. That is illegal under international law. Does Mr. Shatter really believe that refusing to acknowledge that breach of international law would not be considered unbalanced?
