    I agree the British should apologize for their actions during the ast days of the British Mandate and for turning a blind eye while the Hagana, Irgun & Stern Gangs committed ethnic cleansing of Palestine. I also think the UN has a lot to answer for in its conduct during the partition plan and for not enforcing its own resolutions against the Israelis.

    They dont mean a word , Hypocrit Ba…
    If they really felt bad about the palestinians they would stop the crippling sanctions on Gaza , they would put pressure on israel to free the Palestinians, they would start sending Aid and gas and other fuel and medicine and allow the Coward Arab league to send the donations (by Arab citizens ) that have been put on hold .
    the British not only they gave a Land that did not belong to them but allow jews to come , and armed them and left them bases full of arms to terrorise the Palestinian towns and villages . shame on them.

    Now, The British have a lot to apologize for. An Apology doesn't really mean anything. It does not show anything, or prove anything, The Palestinians need an economical boost. An apology is a start, but what would really impress me, and hopefully most of the people here, is if the British send peacekeeping troops to bring order into Palestine.
