Israel relocates meeting citing arrest fears

The announcement came as British Foreign Secretary William Hague wrapped up a visit to the region.
An Israeli official said the annual Israeli-British “Strategic Dialogue” is being relocated to Israel this year. He spoke on condition of anonymity because of the sensitivity of the issue.
Pro-Palestinian activists in Britain have sought the arrest of senior Israeli civilian and military figures under “universal jurisdiction.” The threats have forced Israeli officials to cancel travel to Britain.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said he was pleased by Britain’s “explicit commitment” to change its laws.
