The [[United Kingdom Independence Party]] (UKIP) Friends of Israel group was launched at the party's annual conference in September 2010. The creation of the group was reportedly authorised by the party's national executive committee in 2005. [[Michael Brodsky]], director of public affairs at the Israeli embassy, spoke at the launch and [[Christian Friends of Israel]] distributed material.<ref>[http://www.ukipfoi.moonfruit.com/#/history/4546009955 History], UKIP Friends of Israel</ref>

According to its old website, 'as a libertarian, capitalist, democratic party, UKIP is a natural friend of the world's only Jewish state'.<ref>[http://www.ukipfoi.moonfruit.com/#/about-us/4546009953 About], UKIP Friends of Israel</ref> Its new website states that its aims include fostering links by organising delegations to Israel, providing information about 'Britain and Israel’s mutual security concerns' and opposing 'taxpayer-funded EU interventionism in the Middle East.<ref>[http://foi-ukip.org/objectives/ Objectives], UKIP Friends of Israel</ref>

The organisation's mission statement argues:

:Little attention is paid to the fact that an independent Palestinian state has existed under the name of Jordan since 1946, and that the Palestinian leadership has consistently rejected a two-state solution whenever it has been offered, choosing instead to resort to terrorism.<ref>[http://foi-ukip.org/mission/ Mission], UKIP Friends of Israel</ref>
