 Palestinians look at the destruction caused by the Israeli air and ground offensive, in central Gaza Strip, September 4, 2025

…

A US-contracted flight over the southern city of Khan Younis in December 2024, the night before Israeli bombing killed 30 Palestinians, indicated intelligence flights from the British base were “being used for fighting on the ground,” according to the journalist.

Britain’s intelligence and military support to Israel since October 7, as well as the continued authorisation of components of F35 jets, “crosses the line into participation,” Mr Kennard added.

Forz Khan, the lawyer who represented the family of Jim Henderson, an aid worker with World Central Kitchen who was killed in April 2024, said it was ”highly likely that Sir Keir Starmer is guilty of genocide.”

Considering the government’s failure to totally ban the sale of arms and to stop intelligence sharing with Israel, he said: “It is highly likely the Prime Minister of this country is guilty of genocide.

“It is highly likely that John Healey, the Defence Secretary, is guilty of genocide. And others who provide support, some of them civil servants, will be found guilty should they be tried.

“Not only has it not fulfilled its legal obligations, the United Kingdom government has totally and utterly breached international criminal law —and UK criminal law— and its legal obligations, as well as assisted genocide.”

Mr Khan also said the government had footage which could have provided further information concerning the killing of Mr Henderson, from an RAF surveillance flight said to be operating at the scene.

He added that it is “absolutely true” that the government is more interested in protecting Isreal than it is in finding the truth about a citizen who was killed in Gaza.

Keir Starmer objects to criticism of the IDF. He asks how could anyone object to them starving people to death, forced marches like the Nazis did, bombing Gaza's hospitals and universities,mass-murdering journalists, healthworkers and starving people queuing for food, killing and raping prisoners and murdering children. He calls for people to stop obstructing his genocide for Israel.

An F-35 arriving back at RAF Akrotiri in Cyprus, June 24, 2019

THE government has been forced to review its decision to export F-35 fighter jet components to Israel, legal groups announced today.

Global Legal Action Network (Glan) and Al-Haq wrote to the government last month, threatening to file an emergency injunction over its failure to revoke licences for all arms to the country as it continues its genocide in Gaza.

Labour eventually moved to suspend just 30 out of 350 arms exports in September, but components for F-35s, which have dropped 2,000lb bombs on Gaza, were exempt.

In the High Court last month, the government admitted that there was a “clear risk” that the components could be used by Israel to violate international humanitarian law.

But it continued to export them anyway after Defence Secretary John Healey warned that it would disrupt the global supply programme they are part of and “undermine US confidence in the UK.”

Glan and Al-Haq said that they have now been notified that the government is reconsidering its decision.

Glan lawyer Dearbhla Minogue said: “The position they took is, in our estimation, legally untenable and we hope they will finally do the only reasonable thing — stop the transfer of any British weapons for use by Israel against Palestinians.”

Experiencing issues with this image not appearing. I suspect because it's so critical of Zionist Keir Starmer's support of and complicity in Israel's genocides.
