Israel seems to have taken its settlements a little too far as it attracted unprecedented action from European powers. Britain and France are considering the option of recalling their envoys from Israel to express their protest. European diplomats promised “real action” this time at Israel’s plan to expand its settlements a move which Washington termed as unfortunate. Britain, France and Sweden also summoned their Israeli ambassadors on Monday to denounce Israel’s latest action which comes as a punitive measure against the Palestinian Authority (PA) following their successful bid at the United Nations to win a non-member state observer status.
