“Just like Iraq, the government is doing everything it can to protect itself from scrutiny. Just like Iraq, it will not succeed in its attempts to suffocate the truth. We will uncover the full scale of British complicity in genocide – and we will bring about justice for the people of Palestine.”
The report's findings paint a damning picture for the British government, highlighting a "complicity" and in Israeli war crimes in Gaza. The report concludes that the government has failed in each of its obligations to international law and wider duties to act in order to prevent atrocities taking place in Gaza. It also found that, through arms exports, surveillance operations in Gaza and political cover, the British government had "actively participated" in crimes against humanity.
Following the publication of this seminal report, the Peace & Justice Project will support its wider distribution to members of British Parliament and the relevant bodies within the International Courts of Justice (ICJ) and International Criminal Court (ICC).
