He added that this does not justify Israeli actions in Gaza or the West Bank. But Britain has imposed sweeping sanctions on Russia for its invasion of Ukraine, including banning all dual-use exports and freezing hundreds of billions in assets. At the same time, Britain has suspended only some arms export licences to Israel and continues to allow others. In 2024, Britain suspended 30 licences. As of February 2026, there were still 203 extant military licences to Israel. Britain has also sanctioned two Israeli ministers, but not the prime minister. Critics say Britain is cherry-picking international law, condemning Russian war crimes while refusing to name Israeli war crimes. If the same standards applied, Britain would treat Israel like Russia. It does not. https://x.com/TheSaviour/status/2102605609782694130 https://commonslibrary.parliament.uk/research-briefings/cbp-12195/ Thu, 24 Sep 2026 10:43:31 GMT https://validator.w3.org/feed/docs/rss2.html PeerTube - https://tankie.tube https://tankie.tube/lazy-static/avatars/3ba3ff73-a8b6-49c9-add8-9653ef090c7f.webp https://tankie.tube/videos/watch/9230dc61-5f07-4638-b49a-5a4f2cd66624 All rights reserved, unless otherwise specified in the terms specified at https://tankie.tube/about and potential licenses granted by each content's rightholder.
