Is David Cameron’s refusal to condemn what is apparently a prima facie war crime by the IDF, in Gaza, worrying evidence that the CFI, Conservative Friends of Israel, (AKA the British branch of the Israel lobby) has infiltrated government to the extent that it now influences UK foreign policy in the same way that AIPAC in America determines the US foreign policy agenda?
Yesterday’s resignation of a former Co-Chairman of the Conservative Party, the talented, ex Minister of State at the Foreign Office, Baroness Warsi, would seem to indicate that such a situation does indeed pertain within the Cameron government to the obvious detriment of democracy; the adherence to international law and the Geneva Conventions and the sanctity of human life – in particular, that of the child.

It would appear that David
Cameron has made a huge error in allowing an international lobby to
cloud his judgement and compromise British values to the extent that not
only is he is content to permit the indiscriminate killing of women,
children and non-combatants, in times of war, but that he is willing to
licence the export of (British) arms knowingly for that very purpose.
The British electorate will not to renew his mandate when it has now
become clear that he is prepared to accede to demands from a lobby
acting for a foreign state rather than to ensure compliance with
international human rights.
