Are we surprised? You've all seen the list of members of 'Labour Friends of Israel', right? The entire political system is infested.

General community for news/discussion in the UK.
Less serious posts should go in !casualuk@feddit.uk or !andfinally@feddit.uk
More serious politics should go in !uk_politics@feddit.uk.
Try not to spam the same link to multiple feddit.uk communities.
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.
Posts should be related to UK-centric news, and should be either a link to a reputable source, or a text post on this community.
Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.
If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread.
Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.
Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.
Glad our taxes are not being wasted on anything useless like hospital beds or community centres.
Baalbek? That's an important archaeological site, horrible to think of the destruction of the world's history for this bullshit war, in a way that will match or exceed the Iraq war. US troops set up on the ruins of a temple complex in Baghdad and immediately started shoveling sand into bags to make fortifications. Truly a disgusting loss to our shared humanity.
If people liked ISIS bombing ancient heritage monuments then they're gonna love Israel

Not sure how many people like ISIS but let's hope for Israel it's a lot.
Baalbak is a city with a lot of targets during any period of bombing. Mercifully the temple complex site has never been hit and it hopefully stays that way.
They’re not above it though. They hit the archeological site in Sour/Tyre in the 2024 airstrikes though, and even though dozens of people and medics were murdered by then, my blood boiled white hot after that, I was angrier about it than the mass murder. I think the precision strikes on ambulances came after and those pissed me off even more though.
It’s never a good sign when you have an internal conflict about whether you’re a good person or not because you’re more mad about a bunch of old rocks getting pulverized than people like you being murdered.
They’ll fucking do it, they don’t care. They don’t think we’re people, they obviously don’t think our heritage matters, especially not in a poor city they routinely terrorize.
Expected Britain was an active partner in the Gaza genocide this is just a continuation.
Israel would use their own drones. Why use the RAF? Seems more likely it's the UK gathering intel on what Israel is doing.
RAF bases in the UK are used to load up US B2 bombers which bomb Iran. The UK is lockstep with Israel.
Why wouldn't Israel have a free spy plane fly for them?
Why wouldn’t Israel have a free spy plane fly for them?
I'm sure Israel can spare a single drone to fly over Lebanon, they don't need to use anyone else to do that for them.
Maybe they're "Trauma Bo~~nd~~mbing"
israel and the uk are the same side
they wouldn't be flying over gaza/lebanon without coordination with israel, so it's obvious reconnaissance for israel/nato
The UK has been criticising Israel for attacking Lebanon though.
Like I said, if Israel wanted recon they can just use their own drones. Seems like people are jumping to the conclusion that we're gathering intel for Israel rather than collecting our own Intel to get an idea of what's going on.
Might be both. Tell Israel it's to help, but make records to make the case to exit the war. That or blackmail Isreal to moderate themselves, but they have no shame so I don't think it's that.
Critisizing israel but still sell wespons, share intel and impose no sanctions on the state of israel itself. That's called hypocrisy
They literally arrest you for supporting Palestine in the UK.
They'll arrest you for supporting Palestine Action which has been designated a terrorist group by the government. You wouldn't be arrested for peacefully protesting and supporting the Palistinian cause.
Why was it designated a terrorist group. Who have they killed and what crimes against civilians have they committed?
I am being rhetorical of course and besides it has already been determined unlawful.
It is clear they attempted to illegally suppress human rights in support of Isreal.
Palestine Action beat a police officer on their back with a sledge hammer, fracturing their back. It was pure luck this wasn’t deadly.
Not sure if true, since you're an hasbara cunt but if if he wasn't killed it's definitely BAD luck.
Fuck those nazi bootlickers.
Still spreading propaganda zionazi?
There’s video of this incident.

You are a know Israel defender. The ultimate form of terrorism is supporting a genocidal settler colonial power
Do you support beating people with sledgehammers as a form of peaceful protest?
no need to be peaceful with zionazi cunts.
I'll hammer you too, and with pleasure
No but you zionazi support a settler colonial power so get lsot
Designed as a terrorist orgsnization because it support palestine and oppose settler colonialism
