Palestine Action was right to damage British planes. I hope they do it again, and again, and again, until Palestine is free.

I support Palestine Action!!!
I would say that too, except I'd get arrested if I did, so I won't. Do you hear me, lawyers? Officially speaking I do not support Palestine action.
UK government officials who back the designation and arrests of supporters deserve to be strapped to an AA battery and composted over a field.
I think Palestine Action chose the planes they damaged because they were in some kind of weird military contractor sublease, which was tied to refueling capability for some certain set of aircraft unsupported by their other aerial refueling systems.
Didn't UK announce their surveillance of Gaza as early as 2023? How is this some "gotcha" moment other than confirming what they've already stated 2 years ago...
Their own mission statement was to help identify where hostages were being held. So unless there's any real evidence of other types of damning intelligence sharing going on that was undisclosed. This isn't even news.
And certainly not "evidence of war crimes"
I'm confused. How is this a war crime.
The genocide would be the war crime.
The UK was caught directly participating in the operations, so they are helping a country that is not their ally commit a genocide without declaring war on Palestine themselves.
Well no they weren't, they were "caught" flying a plane over Gaza. Going from that to "directly participating in the operations" is a conclusion you are drawing which seems plausible, even likely, but is not directly supported by a British plane doing loops over Gaza.
Yeah the conspiracy tinfoil hat here is really reaching. X.com us such a cancer platform that I don't expec4 any brain cells there.
Leaving a fingerprint isn't illegal but a fingerprint on a knife inside someone is evidence for a murder trial.
A war crime isn’t a single act but rather a pattern of behavior that has many pieces of evidence.
Blows dust off
They got Al-Capone for TAX EVASION!
Haunting laughter of long dead studio audience
"evidence for a war crimes trial"
I do so love the liberal idea that there's such a thing as "law."
The only way we're going to end the richest countries supporting the most openly genocidal country is if we cut off the funding that is making all of this profitable. There's no one, simple "boycott target" we just all have to get better about not pouring money in our country's corporations and monoliths who are always trying to make line go up.
Stop spending money on things like food delivery, fast food, games, movies, electronics and gadgets you don't need. Start hoarding the wealth away from the liches and oligarchs. Back up your activism by taking away the thing they want most.
I'd like to point out the booming indie games market that is a great place to waste money and support artists (like me not biased or anything)
Hang all of those government officials and agents who were “just following orders.” Hunt them down the same way the world hunted down Nazi camp guards.
Hang all of those government officials and agents who were “just following orders.”
At a dinner meeting of the Big Three on Nov. 29, Stalin proposed executing 50,000 to 100,000 German officers so that Germany could not plan another war. Roosevelt, believing Stalin was not serious, quipped that “maybe 49,000 would be enough.”
Churchill, however, was outraged and denounced “the cold-blooded execution of soldiers who fought for their country.” Before storming out of the room, he said that only war criminals should be put on trial. Stalin brought him back after saying that he was only joking.
I agree that Israel bad, but can someone explain what the war crime is here? I'm not asking as a gotcha, just confused
UK is running spy flights for Israel, or now contracting them out to US mercenaries, to help Israel turn Gaza into rubble and mass slaughter Civilians. The UK claimed it would be solely for hostage rescue, but there was hardly any hostages recovered by military means and certainly no daily attempts at rescuing hostages, but Britain provided intel daily for the past almost two years.
The UK government said they stopped their flights amid mounting pressure, but that was just a lie as they contracted it out instead to distance themselves, which also indicates that they know exactly which crimes they have been and are supporting.

It’s charming how the news media still calls it a war, even though traditionally a war in two sides fighting.
The Israelis are in a war to preserve their existence against the threat of Palestinians continuing to have children at normal historical rates while Israel itself becomes a glorified retirement home.
The Palestinians are doing irreparable harm to the Jewish People by staying alive and protecting their children with hopes of seeing a future generation survive and thrive. The existence of The Hamas Ideology of not liking Israel must not persist for another generation.
Was this necessary intelligence for shooting people at food distribution lines?
US foreign policy has been terrible for generations. It's shit like this that makes me scream "BOTH SIDES", but our two party system always makes people stick to their team.
If you are going to be the Bitch, be the whole bitch.
If your goal is to protect Israeli hegemony in the middle east, stand by that position.
Don't try and gaslight people who know better.
It's insane how almost every western country is bending over backwards supporting this genocide in some way while also being extremely embarrassed about it.
It's a part of the neoliberal solution to crimes againt humanity. First, you do it but deny you're doing it. Then, once you're finished (or made to finish) you admit that you did it and it was really bad. Like really bad and you feel just awful about it. Next, you state the time for justice must wait for a fairer season, as it could drum up bad blood and potentially ignite new conflicts. Finally, after some time has passed, you declare that too much time has passed and justice needed to be done sooner, for now we can no longer punish the perpetrators and would just punish innocents caught in the way(who still have the benefits from whatever their parents did).
Huzzah! We did it kids! Society progressed and everyone is treated fairly now! /s
