UKRAINE & ISRAEL

In total so far, the UK has committed £12.8 billion for Ukraine (£7.8 billion in military support, £5 billion in non-military support).

Now the UK has an arms export deal with Israel going back several years, although that’s relatively small (about £42 million a year), and Israel hasn’t come whinging to us to support them in their war with Palestine.

Israel has been a major non-NATO ally since 1987 and has since cooperated with NATO in the areas of technology and counterterrorism and is considered a major strategic partner of NATO. 

Ukraine was judged ‘too crooked’ to join NATO.

And yet Keir Starmer has promised Zelenskyy £3.5 billion a year of OUR taxpayers’ money for as long as he wants.

Imagine if the situation were reversed, if Great Britain were under attack from a foreign power, would Ukraine jump to our assistance, promise us billions of pounds in aid, and send us neo-Nazi troops from their far-right Azov Brigade? 

The far-right Azov, by the way, is Ukraine’s national gendarmerie and military force, and there are allegations that members of the unit have participated in human rights violations including forcing civilians out of their homes, looting their property and then displacing them in prisons, where they then went on to rape and torture detainees.

In 2019 the group was placed under Facebook’s Tier 1 designation, which includes groups such as the Ku Klux Klan and ISIS. FB users engaging in praise, support or representation of Tier 1 groups are banned. And rightly so. 

AND YET …. Starmer sends taxpayers’ money in support of a Ukrainian far-right group whilst at the same time accusing British patriots - whose only concern is uncontrolled immigration and government inaction on knife crime - of being far-right, and often imprisoning them for that reason.

I’m not being funny but can anyone else see the MASSIVE HYPOCRISY here!!!  

Well ….
