That the Parliament welcomes that sport can be a bridge between countries with wildly differing political views; further welcomes that countries such as China and Iran, with what it considers to be appalling human rights records, are allowed to take part in international sporting competitions; believes that Israel is treated with much greater hatred, despite what it sees as its democratic system and much better human rights record; considers that there has been no genocide in Gaza by what it views as all normal definitions of that word; believes that it was right for Israel to be established as a safer haven for Jews, who had been for centuries widely persecuted in both Europe and in the Arab world, and hopes that, by building bridges through sport and dialogue, no country or people will be isolated and that negotiations on borders and other issues can be meaningfully progressed.
