  israel and the uk are the same side

  they wouldn’t be flying over gaza/lebanon without coordination with israel, so it’s obvious reconnaissance for israel/nato

    The UK has been criticising Israel for attacking Lebanon though.

    Like I said, if Israel wanted recon they can just use their own drones. Seems like people are jumping to the conclusion that we’re gathering intel for Israel rather than collecting our own Intel to get an idea of what’s going on.

      They literally arrest you for supporting Palestine in the UK.

        They’ll arrest you for supporting Palestine Action which has been designated a terrorist group by the government. You wouldn’t be arrested for peacefully protesting and supporting the Palistinian cause.

        You may need a refresher course on use of “literally”.

      Critisizing israel but still sell wespons, share intel and impose no sanctions on the state of israel itself. That’s called hypocrisy

      Israel wouldnt let a foreign military anywhere near the region unless it was coordinated Israel is an extension of western foreign policy

      Might be both. Tell Israel it’s to help, but make records to make the case to exit the war.

  RAF bases in the UK are used to load up US B2 bombers which bomb Iran. The UK is lockstep with Israel.

  Why wouldn’t Israel have a free spy plane fly for them?

    I’m sure Israel can spare a single drone to fly over Lebanon, they don’t need to use anyone else to do that for them.

      Maybe they’re “Trauma Bonding”
