Ahhh, bless! The poor dears at the British Foreign Office are all confused again! Over the last few months it's been their confusion over such confusing matters as "which are the Shi-ite and which are the Sunni again? Which way round is it?" Amongst other such similar seemingly unimportant issues for a country's Foreign Office....
Now it's the British Foreign Secretary Margaret Beckett herself who is confused once again! After the human bomb murders in Israel last weekend, the British Foreign Secretary said: "There can be no justification for attacks such as these. Our thoughts are with the families of the people killed and injured. Such incidents only serve to escalate further an already tense situation in the region. In addition, we are also gravely concerned by the violence over the weekend in the Occupied Territories. We wish to see the restoration of order by the legally constituted Palestinian security forces." Is it just me, or is anybody else even slightly worried that the British Foreign Secretary doesn't seem to know that Israel has already disengaged from Gaza and that this territory is therefore no longer an 'Occupied Territory'? Unfortunatly is seems that not only is the British Foreign Office continually confused over who is who and what is what in foreign parts, but it seems that perhaps it goes deeper than that, in that they lack even an elementary relationship with the truth?
