Israel's Foreign Ministry issued a sharp condemnation of the UK's Green Party on Sunday, following a resolution adopted at the party's annual conference. The ministry stated that the Green Party had ceased to function as a political entity and had become a supporter of terrorism. According to the ministry, the party has officially adopted Hamas's ideology and its call for the destruction of Israel through armed struggle. The Foreign Ministry also criticized the Green Party's resolution for calling for a Palestinian state from the Jordan River to the Mediterranean Sea and for equating Zionism with racism. The ministry described the resolution as "shocking" and stated that it legitimizes armed struggle, effectively calling for the destruction of Israel. The ministry further asserted that the resolution crosses the boundaries of political discourse and constitutes a "stain on the history of the United Kingdom" as long as it remains unrevoked. The Foreign Ministry urged all political parties in the UK, particularly the Labour Party, to "immediately and unequivocally disavow this distorted text."
