Lammy looked apologetic giving his statement in the Commons. How does Israel turn our leaders into such deferential genocide enablers?

Israel has taken over the Labour party.
We pretend we have press freedom but when journalists stop being government stenographers and start asking probing questions about what the government is really supporting we're not so different to Russia.
There are 195 countries in the world.
Did he mistake the UK for Gaza?
And yes I've seen the Pallywood stuff coming out of Gaza just like everyone else has.>
You're a genocide denier. I'm done with you
Yes that's my point. They were a terror group and then weren't when the US decided. In the same way that Sudan was a state sponsor of terror until the US decided otherwise.

In both cases recognising the occupation of Palestine made them not terrorists.
Also if committing massacres made the PLO a terror group then surely Israel and it's military wing should be a state sponsor of terror many times over since October 7th but instead it receives billions in funding and weapons from the US and UK

As I said it is a form of political repression.
Also reception isn't anywhere near as formal as Year 1. It's pretty much an extension of the nursery experience which many children will have given the need for both parents to work.
Hamas being designated a terrorist group arose because of US and Israeli pressure to de-legitimise any entity that represents Palestinians in the same way that the PLO was regarded as a terror group pre Oslo.
It is political repression and nothing more.
Many of these same countries branded Nelson Mandela and the ANC as a terror group.
The government is breaking the law by permitting the sale of these weapons.
It's literally a breach of the law to be supplying weapons to a country engaging in human rights violations, war crimes and a possible genocide. That's why Lammy has buried the legal opinion which the Tories also sat on.
The government is the law breaker. The people going to prison are the ones upholding international law.
Two journalists and an activist arrested under the Terrorism Act, now protests themselves being undermined in a much smarter way than Braverman's performative attempts. Labour friends of Israel are a nasty bunch
