The British government says it is suspending free trade negotiations with Israel and leveling new sanctions targeting West Bank settlers as it criticizes Israel’s military actions in Gaza.
The U.K. suspended free trade talks with Israel on Tuesday and hit West Bank settlers with sanctions, less than a day after vowing “concrete actions” if Israel didn’t stop its new military offensive in Gaza.
It’s insane the lengths the current Israeli government has been going to to shoot itself in the foot. If you are going to commit war crimes as a matter of state policy and want to keep the support of your closest allies at least try not to brag about it on live TV every other day.
They don’t need real support or care what the public thinks. When they lost the Yom Kippur war they got ready to start nuking everyone, which resulted in Nixon, replacing their military and upgrading their hardware and flying support missions to bail them out.
They are literal nuclear terrorists. Look up the Samson option if you want to read more.

They’re not trying to shoot themselves in the foot. They just have been able to get away with this same stuff for decades, so why not continue?
