UK's Foreign Secretary calls destroying Hamas "immoral."

[duluxe]

When your idea of morality is to allow a murderous, genocidal quasi government to continue to threaten civilians, your moral compass might be pointed in the wrong direction.

Yesterday, UK Foreign Secretary David Lammy gave a speech to Parliament saying "Israel’s plan is morally unjustifiable, wholly disproportionate and utterly counterproductive."

At the same time, he pretends that he wants a future Gaza without Hamas:

Since entering office, we have taken concerted action on Gaza. We have restored funding to the United Nations Relief and Works Agency, supported the independence of international courts, suspended arms export licences, provided food and medical care to hundreds of thousands of Gazans and worked with Arab partners on a plan to ensure a reconstructed Gaza no longer run by Hamas.

Oh, a plan! A plan to rid Gaza of Hamas rule! That's wonderful!

Hamas continues to exert day to day control over every aspect of Gazans lives, threatens reporters and protesters, issues daily press releases filled with propaganda and lies, continues to use hospitals as weapons depots and displaced persons camps as places to strategize. It has made it abundantly clear over the past 19 months that it does not want to lose its stranglehold on Gaza.

How, exactly, can Hamas be dislodged without further military action?

Don't ask. Those are just details. They are working on a plan, isn't that enough? Therefore, Israel's desire to eradicate Hamas militarily must be "morally unjustifiable."

And "wholly disproportionate."

And "utterly counterproductive."

The UK's position is not to eliminate Hamas. It is to wish Hamas away. Anyone who actually tries to get rid of the Islamist groups in Gaza is, of course, immoral.

The UK is telling Israel, "You may defend yourself, but only enough to ensure the continued existence of those who openly seek your destruction."

To the British government, even pressuring Hamas is not on the table. The only party that they announced they are politically punishing is Israel. We saw only a week ago that Qatar can pressure Hamas when it wants to, and the UK can pressure Qatar - but it doesn't.

At the same time that the UK is suspending some arms export licenses to Israel, it has deep military relations with Qatar. They have joint air squadrons and share intelligence. The UK provides military training to Qataris. All of these can be leveraged to pressure Hamas to release hostages - but the UK chooses not to.

That isn't the only problem with the UK (together with France and Canada)'s position. Their condemnation of Israel comes with an implication that Israel's repeated assertions that it doe not want to hurt Gaza civilians is a lie, that its plan to provide aid directly to Gazans and bypass Hamas is an elaborate conspiracy theory covering up Israel's genocidal aims.

Once the UK government strays from political opinion into moral posturing, they prove themselves to be fundamentally immoral. No one wants innocent civilians in Gaza to suffer, and the message that Israel alone is responsible for their plight is a perverted twisting of the truth. If he cared about morality, Lammy would blame Hamas alone for using human shields in Gaza to protect its own military - a fact that by itself proves that there is no alternative to military action, since Hamas only views Gaza civilians as cannon fodder.

The only party that profits from Gazan deaths is Hamas. The UK has just enshrined that concept. No wonder Hamas praised it.

And when a bloodthirsty terror organization praises you, any thinking person would reconsider their actions and words.

Hamas is not the problem. It is the Zionist that is the problem. They cannot live in peace with its, Arab neighbours. The Zionist wants it all.

That seems to be on the works by the looks of things.

More likely they annoyed a certain Genghis Khan by butchering his trade delegation and later his ambassador.
