All it took was Israel murdering tens of thousands of children for the UK to put less than 10% of its arms supply licenses under review.
Truly, the US and the UK do not even view Arabs as human. This is far too little and far too late, as Israel expands its holocaust of Palestinians to the West Bank as well.
from some other article on this:
“Britain’s chief rabbi criticised the government’s decision to suspend some arms export licences to Israel […] He said the move would bolster unfounded claims that Israel was in breach of international humanitarian law.”
uhhhhh?
The UK foreign secretary, David Lammy, said it applied to 30 of the 350 existing arms licences, but would almost entirely exclude all UK components for the F-35 fighter jet programme
