Why the UK allows Israeli settlers to terrorise the West Bank Peter Oborne 30 October 2025 11:27 GMT \| Last update: 3 days 3 hours ago Rather than acting to uphold international law, Starmer remains subservient to his American and Israeli allies In blatant disregard of the ICJ, Britain continues to trade with illegal West Bank settlements, thus playing an important role in keeping them economically afloat. Bear in mind that agriculture is vital for Israeli settlers. They get a high proportion of their income from fruit and vegetables. Some 60 percent of Israeli agricultural products end up in the UK, sometimes misleadingly labelled as “West Bank”, giving the false impression to consumers that their origin is Palestinian. The relationship is reciprocal. It is well known that British arms sold to Israel end up being used in Gaza. They are also used in the occupied West Bank. Why the UK allows Israeli settlers to terrorise the West Bank \| Middle East Eye Very similar to the Sahel with Islamist militias trading oil and minerals in exchange for military equipment and supplies. Also, ISIS in Mosul, Iraq which traded with Israel, Turkey, and Britain which sent tanker trucks to transport the oil. It becomes a very cost-effective means of running cover military operations in other countries without parliamentary oversight or public funding.
