They were murdered by Hamas when the Israel army got near to rescuing them. Why didn't Hamas just let them be rescued rather than murder them?

A classic example of the UK government trying to have it both ways. Stop a few licences to appease the Muslim vote while at the same time keeping the vast majority of licences in place.

The UK government would have some credibility if they stopped all arms sales to Israel. They are just appeasing some Labour MPs by stopping a few licences and causing tension with the Israel government. There should be no half measures and only full support for Israel.

BigPP Posted September 3 Share Posted September 3 7 hours ago, TOM PEPPER said: Who started it in the first place? Who started it? Have a read up about the Nakba (Catastrophe). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nakba The Nakba (Arabic: النَّكْبَة, romanized: an-Nakba, lit. 'the catastrophe') is the ethnic cleansing of Palestinians through their violent displacement and dispossession of land, property, and belongings, along with the destruction of their society and the suppression of their culture, identity, political rights, and national aspirations. The term is used to describe the events of the 1948 Palestine war in Mandatory Palestine as well as the ongoing persecution and displacement of Palestinians by Israel. As a whole, it covers the fracturing of Palestinian society and the long-running rejection of the right of return for Palestinian refugees and their descendants. During the foundational events of the Nakba in 1948, approximately half of Palestine's predominantly Arab population, or around 750,000 people were expelled from their homes or made to flee through various violent means, at first by Zionist paramilitaries, and after the establishment of the State of Israel, by its military. Dozens of massacres targeted Palestinian Arabs and over 500 Arab-majority towns, villages, and urban neighbourhoods were depopulated, with many of these being either completely destroyed or repopulated by Jews and given new Hebrew names. By the end of the war, 78% of the total land area of the former Mandatory Palestine was controlled by Israel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
