Jack Straw tells Sir Trevor Phillips that he supports a halt to arms exports to Israel because 'I think things have gone far too far'. He goes on to say that 'there isn't in my view any doubt at all that Israel is breaching international law'

Braverman: Israel 'absolutely not' in breach of international law
Israel is "absolutely not" in breach of international humanitarian law, former home secretary Suella Braverman has said.

Ms Braverman, on a visit to the country, told the BBC the suggestion is "absurd" and "an insult to Israel".

She added: "The suggestion itself is absurd and, frankly, an insult to Israel who have been going above and beyond the necessary requirements to ensure that civilian casualties are limited, to ensure that aid is received onto the Gaza Strip and distributed.

"I have seen evidence myself, in terms of very up-to-date photographic evidence, of plentiful food packages and trucks of food, water and medicines getting to the people of Gaza."

The three-point announcement to ease aid flows into Gaza represents the most significant move by Israel since this conflict began six months ago.

It also starkly undermines Israel's own oft-repeated assertion that it has not blocked or impeded aid movement into Gaza.

It follows a call between President Joe Biden and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

Did the WCK staff share their food with the I.D.F ?

It would be a good idea to share the food with the I.D.F.

Imagine an Israeli soldier sitting there all night long hungry and seeing Palestinians  be given free food  .

Enough to get anyone annoyed 

 

Israel - Hamas war: What is World Central Kitchen? | AP News

 

As usual disgusting ignorant comment from people who justify the ongoing ‘plausible’ genocide in Gaza

 

WCK in fact, has fed Israelis displaced by the 7 October attack as well as former hostages, according to its website, and people in Lebanon displaced by fighting with Israel.

 

WCK was ok when they were feeding Israeli settlers and hostages but when they started to help Gaza people, they suddenly became a legitimate target deserves to be killed and ridiculed.

 

You lot always ungrateful and bite the hands that feed or even arm you.

I just made a donation to WCK on their website, and it feels good to be able to help any hungry or displaced human beings regardless of their color, religion or race.

 

I encourage people to donate to this great cause. Never heard of them before until Israel made them the talk of the world.

Former supreme court judges say UK arming Israel breaches international law | Israel-Gaza war | The Guardian

 

Suella Braverman is a bigot who was kicked out of the government for various violations. She is not a lawyer to make such stupid biased statement.

 

As per article above, three former supreme court justices, including the court’s former president Lady Hale, are among more than 600 lawyers, academics and retired senior judges warning that the UK government is breaching international law by continuing to arm Israel.

When you pizz off you largest supporter, either you are on a course to self destruction (which IMHO, Israel is on under Netanyahu) or your leadership is certifiably crazy and needs replacing now.

 

When your leadership sanctions political assassinations such as killing an Iranian general in a 3rd country. you have to understand that there will be a payback coming sooner or later.

 

When your leadership authorises assassinations of innocent civilians such as the 7 staff of the of the WCK you know that your country is in deep trouble.

 

When fewer and fewer people worldwide don't believe any propaganda put out by your government or its military, you know your country is in big trouble.

I call B.S. The River to the Sea brigade were protesting immediately after October 7, many celebrating it, well before there was any response from Israel.

Anyway, it's been obvious to me from the start that this was the Hamas plan. Bait Israel into a ferocious response, maximize their own civilian casualties, and take the win though P.R.

It worked better than they could have hoped for in their wildest dreams.

Yes Israel because they're still stuck with that horrible Netanyahu took the bait to a higher level than a more moderate Israeli leader would have done, but any Israeli leader would have responded as would any leader in any other country so attacked.

As far as your definitive conclusions about what how the food kitchen workers got targeted, those conclusions can't honestly be taken as fact at the moment.

You are missing the point though. The WCK staff were literally hunted down from car to car over a period of time despite:

• Being in a declared noncombatant zone
• Having had their exact movements, satellite coordinates and location communicated clearly to IDF
• Clearly marked cars with WCK's large logo on the roofs and sides of all cars in the convoy. 
• They called the IDF after first strike but were subsequently hit twice more.

The point is this was not an accident at all. 'People die in war zone' statement is just a smoke screen to justify a heinous cowardly attack which has zero justification or room for error.

On 29 April 2018, Amber Rudd resigned as Home Secretary after misleading the Home Affairs Select Committee on deportation targets.

 

Javid resigned as Chancellor during the February 2020 cabinet reshuffle after refusing a demand from Johnson and his chief adviser Dominic Cummings that he dismiss his advisers, and was succeeded by Rishi Sunak.

 

Pritti Patel was found to have breached the Ministerial Code in relation to incidents of bullying. Following the resignation of Johnson and subsequent election of Liz Truss as Prime Minister, Patel resigned as Home Secretary on 6 September 2022.

 

Suella Braverman was sacked by the prime minister because she sent an official document from her personal email to a fellow MP, in a serious breach of ministerial rules.

 

In October 2022, amid a government crisis, Truss appointed Shapps as Home Secretary, replacing Suella Braverman. His six-day tenure made Shapps the shortest-serving Home Secretary in British political history. 

 

Suella Braverman, 2nd term.

 

In Sunak's cabinet reshuffle on 13 November 2023, James Cleverly was appointed Home Secretary, succeeding Suella Braverman.

For years, Israel has been engaging in clandestine operations against Iran, targeting its leaders, scientists, infrastructure, and global interests.

 

Iran possesses the capability to decimate Israel within hours, yet they exhibit strategic restraint, focusing on their ultimate goal (The Nuclear Bomb). Their patience may soon bear fruit when they ultimately acquire nuclear capabilities.

 

While not necessarily fond of the Iranian regime as such, it's conceivable that they could become humanity's last resort in containing the region’s pariah state.

 

With Iran's inevitable imminent acquisition of nuclear deterrence, the once ferocious "mad dog" may well be tamed into a fluffy cat.
