Green Party demands ban on Israeli military as terror group and Balfour apology

The Green Party has voted for the Israeli military to be banned as a terrorist organisation and for Britain to apologise for the Balfour Declaration.

Members voted for the motion at the Green Party's annual conference in Bournemouth on Sunday, making it party policy.

The motion called for the Israeli military to be proscribed, which would make membership of the Israeli military or even glorifying it a terrorist offence under British counterterror legislation.
