RAEL’S COMMENT:<\/strong><\/span><\/h5>\n

\u200bA British politician has been reported to the police under the terrorism act, after making \u2018vile\u2019 comments on Twitter about Israel\u2019s offensive in Gaza.<\/p>\n

David Ward, a Liberal Democrat MP, tweeted on Tuesday that he would fire rockets into Israel if he was a Palestinian.<\/p>\n

“The big question is – if I lived in #Gaza would I fire a rocket? – probably yes,” he tweeted.<\/p>\n

In a follow-up message, he wrote “”Ich bin ein #palestinian – the West must make up its mind – which side is it on?”<\/p>\n

Conservative MP Nadhim Zahawi has written to Metropolitan Police, calling for an investigation into Mr Ward\u2019s actions \u201cas a matter of urgency.\u201d<\/p>\n

The remarks were immediately condemned by other MPs, including the Conservative party chairman Grant Shapps, who referred to it as an \u201cincitement to violence\u201d and \u201ccompletely irresponsible.\u201d<\/p>\n
