General Discussion for politics in the UK.
Please don't post to both !uk_politics@feddit.uk and !unitedkingdom@feddit.uk .
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.

Posts should be related to UK-centric politics, and should be either a link to a reputable news source for news, or a text post on this community.

Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.

If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread. (These things should be publicly discussed)

Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.

Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.

!ukpolitics@lemm.ee appears to have vanished! We can still see cached content from this link, but goodbye I guess! :'(

Haven't read the article. But we know that RAF has been overflying Gaza. Do we think that Israel would allow that if they were collecting evidence of war crimes rather than providing intelligence/targeting

More to the point. Israel the US and the UK have shared intelligence since its formation. Israel has long had a world reputation for very effective intelligence service.

Seems likely agreements along these lines have been committed on and supported since the cold war.

Its not like the UK or US has been doing this stuff for free. They likely owe the Israeli services many favours.
