This from Hans Bromwich, Cowes. Ed
It’s sickening to watch Foreign Secretary, David Lammy, beating his chest in the media and saying isn’t it terrible the genocidal starvation and indiscriminate killing that’s going on in Gaza, Israel is out of order, whilst at the same time saying Britain is only supplying F35 parts to a, ‘global pool’, and not directly to Israel. And that Britain’s daily flights over Gaza are only providing intelligence to locate Hamas’ hostages.
Well that’s not going too well is it, given how many have been found using this intelligence gathering, one can only wonder what else this surveillance data is being used for? Do the government really think the British public are all stupid and can’t see through the weasel words ?
And just look at the sneaky way Home Secretary, Yvette Cooper, went about getting PA prescribed as a terrorist organisation, by linking it with other organisations that clearly are terrorist organisations, putting MPs in an impossible position when it came to the Parliamentary vote.
The truth is our government has the power to sanction Israel and help stop the killing and the inhumane starvation of a captive and defenceless people, but it chooses not to, and prefers to give the Green light to its friend and ally, Israel, whilst the whole world watches on in abject horror.
