    You’re right they probably just felt like flying around for the majority of the genocide in the airspace they needed to negotiate access to with no strings attached.

    You honestly come off as a troll, but i know you’re probably just a UK tankie.

      Its pretty funny that you’re the one reflexively assuming that because a western country is doing something it can only be the worst possible thing, and yet you’re calling me a tankie.

      Whether the UK is materially contributing to the genocide in Garza or not is not sufficiently demonstrable by the evidence provided here.

      I’d agree with you that in all likelihood the spy planes are a tip of the iceberg sort of thing but neither of us have evidence to prove that. Planes flying around gaza is insufficient evidence.

      Is it repugnant that the uk likely knows better than most normal people what’s going on and is doing nothing to stop it? Yes. Is it deplorable that they’re clamping down on dissent about it? Yes.

      Are they materially contributing to the ongoing genocide? Yeah. But that has nothing to do with a plane flying over gaza. Are they actively participating? Neither of us have any idea. Or if we do this information is not sufficient to prove it.

      It’s shady as fuck. It’s worth being pissed off about. But unless someone here has evidence about what the planes are actually doing it’s just speculation.

      There are plenty of countries that spy on wars they’re not directly participating in.
