Pity he has no thought for his own citizens in regard to unwanted settlers on their land.

The Left hates Israel, this was expected.... I always loved this country and never thought I'd want to live anywhere else. Now I'm glad we're leaving in a couple of years. I can't stand to watch anyore.

Israel are surrounded by hostile, terrorist states. Why should they be left unable to defend themselves?

And that leftist court, the ICJ. Don't forget, that they hate Israel too. Not for any reason, just because something, something, left.

Israel literally has Nukes. I don't think you'll be in need of slingshots any time soon. Don't worry, Israel has more than enough weapons and ammo, to continue the massacre of women and children.

there will be certain caveats. The government can't just stop giving out licences, because they will be putting thousands of UK workers out of work.

This is a sound bite more than anything else

I don't disagree but I will point out that the statement that "suspending arms sales to warring nations will put UK workers out of work" is really bleak stuff. Sick sad world isnit.

Now this I agree with. Giving weapons for wars, I don't agree with it. No matter for who.

it's an unfortunate reality across the world. The UK economy is ****ed already, the last thing the UK want to mess with is a significant export. My guess is we have restricted massive sized bombs, we won't have restricted defensive missiles, because that would be shooting ourself in the foot
