The UK is letting the US use UK military bases in its illegal war on Iran – without UK parliamentary approval.
Whatever US President Trump and Israel’s President Netanyahu may claim, this war is illegal.
The UK government must end its involvement now. UK support risks repeating the grave mistakes the UK government made in Iraq – and once again breaking international law.
So far, the US and Israel have killed over 1,000 people in Iran. Last week, over 150 schoolgirls were killed when bombs fell on the playground of the Shajareh Tayyebeh school in southern Iran.
At the same time, Israel has escalated its attacks on Lebanon into a fully-fledged invasion – with soldiers on the ground – and blocked food and aid from entering the Gaza Strip once again, while the US threatens communities everywhere.
Escalation is a political choice.
While the US and Israel steadily and deliberately extend their violence, the UK must uphold international law and end its support for this illegal war.
