US lawmakers condemned the European Union's decision to label products made in the West Bank and the Golan Heights.

The Czech parliament called on the government to ignore the EU's labeling guidelines for Israeli products from the West Bank and Golan Heights issued by the EU Commission in November.

In order to avoid selling tickets to Israelis, Kuwait Airways has stopped its New York-London flight after the U.S. Transportation Department urged the airline to stop this illiegal discrimination.

The US House of Representatives has approved legislation which will impose sanctions on banks which do business with Lebanese terror group Hezbollah.

Israel has responded to last month’s EU decision to issue guidelines for labeling products from the West Bank and the Golan Heights, considered as ‘’occupied territories’’ by the EU , by saying the move was ‘’politically motivated’’ as it discriminates against the products of one country, Israel, while there are some 200 territorial disputes around the world, such as in Western Sahara (occupied by Morocco) and northern Cyprus (occupied by Turkey), for which the EU didn’t issue such labels.

Despite Jerusalem’s strong protest against what it calls a ‘’discriminatory and double standard’’ measure, the European Union won’t change its mind on the decision to put special labels on Israeli exports from the West Bank and the Golan Heights.
