Britain has been helping Israehell in it’s attempted genocide of Palestinians. Most thinking people know this, despite Sneer Starmer and Limpy Lamy offering a few palliatives. However, now the spying missions have been contracted out by the UK. They’ve been identified because the US contractor forgot to switch off the planes transponder. This used to be treated by the US as a suspected hijacking! If you’re short of time, just watch the final 90 second video.
Thanks @PatB . I guess most of us do “know” this but it’s good to have the source etc firmed up.
“Watkins recorded 600 flights by the RAF’s Shadow fleet over the territory between December 2023 and July this year, with flights carried out almost daily, the report added. It also noted a government source as having suggested that there would be “several hard drives” of intelligence available as a result of those flights.”
So with this update we can say that the UK has played an essential operational part in Israel’s illegal genocidal attacks on civilians since Oct 7 2023. And that since July 2025, these reconaissance missions have been carried out by US contractors acting on the UK’s behalf. And we only know about the contractors because of a kind of on-mike gaffe by the contractors.
Meanwhile what was the UK government saying .
This bean-spilling transponder error occurred on July 28.
Three days earlier the foreign secretary David Lammy gave us this assurance:
David Lammy ‘reassured’ UK isn’t complicit in Israel crimes and insists ‘we aren’t sending anything IDF could use’ in Gaza
This always seemed likely to be misleading, it seems that his statement is a lie even literally.
From the lbc link:
David Lammy has admitted that Britain does still send some materials and parts to Israel as part of international pooled efforts.
And he could not guarantee that some of those goods would not end up in Israel.
But he told Full Disclosure With James O’Brien that he was confident Britain had done all it could to “make sure we’re not complicit”.
Hard-drives of information used to bomb civilians is hardly part of “International pooled efforts”
What really angers me is the bold faced lies. He knows we (Britain) are intimately complicit. He knows even putting genocide aside, there are a multiplicity of war crimes. He knows this and yet, like so many other politicians, he lies, lies and lies again, and there are no consequences for those lies. I despair.
Declassified was onto this some time ago:
And here’s an interesting add-on;
And more;
Yet more;
Voices crying in the wilderness.
