9.86 Sanctioning Israel
The governments of the UK, France and Canada threatened sanctions
against Israel in 2025. In September 2026, the they announced
plans to restrict trade linked to Jewish towns in Judea and Samaria
which they call illegal settlements in the West Bank.
Broader Coalition: The three nations issued a joint statement alongside
nine other countries (including Spain, Sweden, Norway, and Ireland)
committing to nEuropean restrictions on goods produced in Judea and
Samaria.
In May 2025, Israeli-American journalist Caroline Glick published an
address to the governments of the United Kingdom, France and Canada.
Here is her statement in full:
“You sanctimonious, hypocritical cowards.
How dare you threaten the one Jewish state on earth — after
everything your nations did to us!
You dare speak of ‘humanitarian values’ while standing on piles of
Jewish bones your ancestors buried beneath cobblestones, cathedrals and
the charters of ‘civilized’ nations?!
Britain.
Oh, Britain.
The empire that carved up the Middle East with a pencil and a
gin-and-tonic.
You issued the Balfour Declaration and then slammed the door on
Jewish refugees fleeing the Nazis.
You handed chunks of Jewish land to Arab monarchs and let Jews die
in the Holocaust rather than let them enter your precious Mandate.
You interned Holocaust survivors in Cyprus as if they were
criminals.
And now you’re wagging your colonial finger at Jews for building
homes on our ancestral hills?
Shove your royal hypocrisy back into Buckingham Palace and deal with
your own collapsing society — where knife crime, antisemitism and
Islamic extremism are more common than fish and chips.
France.
Liberté, égalité, fraternité — unless you’re a Jew.
You deported more than 75,000 Jews to their deaths during the
Holocaust with the full cooperation of the Vichy regime. You let them be
shoved into cattle cars from the Vél d’Hiv while Parisians watched.
And after the war?
No justice.
No reckoning.
Just decades of indifference and empty words.
Today Jews are stabbed in the streets of France, synagogues are
under military guard, and you still have the gall to lecture us about
morality?
You couldn’t protect your own republic from a van full of jihadists,
but now you want to dictate to Israel how it should defend itself
against genocidal terrorists?
You are morally bankrupt and culturally collapsing.
Canada.
Oh Canada — America’s cold, smug, spineless cousin.
Your ‘moral high ground’ is a snow-covered hill of lies.
You locked Jewish refugees out during the Holocaust.
The ship St. Louis begged for your mercy.
You sent them back — to die.
‘None is too many,’ your officials said.
That is your legacy.
Today your politicians pose for photo-ops in mosques that glorify
martyrs while condemning Israel for fighting murderers.
You have turned your universities into Hamas fan clubs and your
parliament into a virtue circus.
You abandoned the Jews when we were stateless, and now you want to
punish us for defending our state?!
Here is our answer.
We are not the stateless Jews of 1942.
We are the sovereign people of Israel — armed, aware and
unapologetic.
Your sanctions are a joke.
Your threats are meaningless.
Your moral lectures are garbage.
We do not need your permission to live.
We do not need your approval to fight.
We are not going anywhere.”
