Minister condemns Israeli action
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/politics/5205658.stm
<snip>Foreign Office minister Kim Howells has criticised Israel's bombardment of Lebanon, while on a visit to Beirut.

He said Israel had not carried out "surgical strikes" and attacking the Lebanese nation was not the answer.

Earlier he said that attempts were being made to engage with all parties and a demand for an immediate ceasefire would be a "meaningless gesture".

Meanwhile thousands of people across the UK are joining demonstrations against Israeli attacks on Lebanon.

Eleven rallies were organised by groups such as Stop The War Coalition and the Muslim Association of Britain.
