- "This is a modern army with the latest kit and frankly it's inexcusable."
Three Brits have been killed by an IDF airstrike that Benjamin Netanyahu insists was 'unintentional.' Seven aid workers for World Central Kitchen died in Gaza as a result of the strike, and the world wants answers.
Rishi Sunak spoke to Israel’s Prime Minister this evening. Sunak told Netanyahu he was "appalled" and demanded a "thorough and transparent independent investigation into what happened."
Iain Dale hears the latest from experts on the subject:
02:15 Gregg Carlstrom, the Economist's Middle East Correspondent.
Richard Makepeace, Director of Medical Aid for Palestinians.
“He said he was appalled by the killing of aid workers, including three British nationals, in an airstrike in Gaza yesterday and demanded a thorough and transparent independent investigation into what happened.

The double standards and passes given to Israel are sickening.

Damages to Physical Structures Estimated at $18.5 billion as of end January WASHINGTON, April 2, 2024 - The cost of damage to critical infrastructure in Gaza is estimated at around $18.5 billion according to a new report released today by the World Bank and the United Nations, with financial support of the European Union. That is equivalent to 97% of the combined GDP of the West Bank and Gaza in 2022.Joint World Bank, UN Report Assesses Damage to Gaza’s Infrastructure
Israel is a Democratic Country!
They are fighting for their survival against a Dictatorship controlled by Terrorists.
If you can't see the difference - go & live in Gaza...
Israel has the right to defend itself from innocent aid workers....
Specially when the food was clearly proven to be antisemitic 😐
So called "aid" workers"
The Anti-Semitic food was using the aid workers as human shields.
@@Em3ga I'm surprise the IDF haven't used that as an excuse.
@@Em3ga LOL, I wonder would any of that "food" made it to the HOSTAGES?
It's quite disgusting how they only express their outrage now that British nationals were killed and not when the thousands of Palestinian innocent men, women and children were! 😡
They’re not even trying to hide their hypocrisy
This is Britain they are British citizens why wouldn't they?
Are we surprised?
Spot on, further dehumanises the Palestinians
Absolutely. Our useless politicians should have stopped arselicking up to Israel long ago.
3 British BUT 33000 Palestinians, how about that people of conscience?
You are so right. Palestinians treated abysmally.
IDF :We have investigated ourselfs and we concluded we did nothing wrong
This 👆
Feeding the hungry is anti-semetic.
Yes that’s what will come out after the pretend investigation. But we already knew that. The British government and labour are subhuman. They pretend to be outraged and that they care about innocent Palestinians. When they really don’t. They will keep on supporting the genocidal Israeli government no matter what. I was already a shame to be British I’m even more so now.
American cops do it everyday of the week , Its an insane notion that you or your friends can investigate your crimes but it happens all the time in western countries and people say it with a straight face as if it isn't complete insanity .
That is IDF public statement. Their internal statement is "We should have done it 1 missile, not 3"
Have we forgotten 5 year old Hind Rajab who spent hours in a car surrounded by dead family members talking to aid workers and pleading with them to come and save her. And finally after hours of negotiations with the IDF the Palestinian Red Crescent got the clearance to send in an Ambulance to rescue Hind. Weeks later when people could return to the area they found the burnt out shell of ths Ambulance 400mts from the car where Hind and her family were found dead.
The similarity between this story and the fatevof these aid workers is striking.
What has transpired that we will never see or hear of is truly terrifying.
The UK is complicit in these war crimes.
What does that actually mean? Are we supposed to accept some sort of legal case taking place against our country and the possibility of massive fines or sanctions or something?
@@ecaeas4439Yes against our corrupt government.
@@ecaeas4439yes. Maybe stop selling Israel weapons, pubiclay supporting them and making it illegal to say anything truthful regarding their slaughter. Money over life and desency. It's the British way
Oi, 'charlie gwop', Govt maybe, don't start involving our folks 🇬🇧 in your smear, awright?
Israel has 100% right to defend themselves against kitchen aid workers!
...teaspoons can be used as catapults
UK people : Israel killed one of our own.
UK PM : Israel has a right to defend itself.
The US said the same and with an attitude to the reporter that asked the question. 😡
I can’t believe the tone Iain Dale is taking asking these questions. If this attack had been perpetrated by Hamas, you can bet the outrage, strong condemnation of Hamas, the vitriolic language would have been on a whole other level. Instead Iain sounds like he’s a bit miffed and telling off a naughty kid who’s made a mistake and should just be more careful next time. The double standards and hypocrisy are appalling and shameful.
You can't use starvation as a weapon, if you have aid workers providing food. Israel knows exactly what they are doing and to whom.
Netanyahu is a war criminal.
Can't, but 'they' are, cos Sam's their big bruvva.
They killed them with the uk weapons
Yes the UK gave them the weapon there fire capable
Probably no way of knowing at this moment but just imagine that. The irony of it.
@@Maliko919maybe the missile was fired by a soldier with uk dual citizenship. Imagine that.
@@tirzahroblesdemedina1130And then it was defended on behalf of the Israhelli government but another dual national Brit.
@@Dickie2702 And America.
'British Israel relations on the slide for some time', can't agree with you there. Britain has been a very, very loyal supporter of this very belligerent nation and very possibly complicit in their outrageous attacks on totally innocent people.
And now the WCK is turning the boat around with hundreds of tons of food. Israel wins again. I’m so disgusted and heartbroken.
Me too how can Israel keep getting away with this. If Keir Starmer does not condemn this he'll be getting another snotty email.
I’m with you on feeling disgusted and heartbroken
Watching this g******e and seeing our governments supporting it has had a huge effect on me as a British born American
@@DeniseWilliams-jr5xo Starmer chooses to listen to his wife who is jewish, not the british public
Omg, 3 brits killed. What about the 12,000 children killed…………………..
The 12000 weren't White, so they couldn't care less.
Dreadful lack of empathy isn't it? Shameful.
I certainly understand what you mean, but any loss of life is appalling and none should be minimised.
It literally is a war against Humanity
It’s literally not
@@VelvetUGthe world has said otherwise
@@VelvetUGBest move imo because its not safe for you in Europe.
@@VelvetUG Yup a war against cattle.. some euro cattle too. ek?
Look at the clip of Netanyahu calling this a mistake he has a massive grin on his face. This wasn't accidental at all.
I was fuming 😢 he was smurking as he spoke. He's pure evil 😈
Duper’s Delight
US has just approved another huge shipment of arms to Israel and Britain STILL supporting Israel with arms supplies, so Yes, it’s a joke to him.
@jake751 it wasn't even smirk, it's the kinda face you make when you trying to hold back massive laugh. We are truly living in the Twilight Zone.
He's Himmler 2.0 .
Every human life is precious.
The world needs to make Israel accountable for its aggression.
What about Hamas who started this war with their barbaric acts
@@stephenlever419
Israel illegally occupied Palestinian lands in 1948 and denied the Palestinians people their human rights in occupied land.
@@stephenlever419
Since 1948 it has been Israeli oppression versus Palestinian resistance .
were does this end !! a world war we all die
@@stephenlever419 What about the three thousand plus Palestinian children killed by the IDF in the twenty years prior to Hamas's attack last October?
It has been reported that the first truck that was struck, people jumped out and ran to the second truck and notified the IDF that they were hit. Then the second truck was hit and then the 3rd. The charity notified the IDF where they were located and where they would be going. These were a targeted murders by Israel.
It has been happening to Palestinians for decades. Now its a problem?
Do you think Palestinians would rather us not speak up now?
@@aalvarez2914 why weren't you speaking up before? Did you speak up during the Summer attack on Gaza in 2014?
That alone is being investigated for Israeli war crimes
Were the 3 British aid workers killed by weapons we sent to Israel or by ones sent by the US.
You can practically bet your house on it being yes .
By Aid workers, do you mean mercenaries that sold their services to the same ilk that have attacked our country multiple times?
Designed and manufactured in america.
Drones built with British components and American munitions
When you feed a crocodile , don't be surprised when it takes a chomp of ya arm ..
At what point do we stop tiptoeing around the obvious lies and clear psycopathy of an insane country.
Prime Minister and state apparatus NOT country. The Western coverage of the Israeli citizens protesting Netanyahu has been very lacking.
Seemingly until humanity as we know it is destroyed .
I reached that point months ago
Excellent comment. I am concerned that the anger will spill over into a wider conflict
@@user-po1ln8pr9jWell that’s just what Netanyahu would love! He’s desperate to get the Iranians and the USA into a war in the region. The man is desperate and dangerous.
If they didn’t care about 5 year old Hind, why would they think twice about a car full of aid workers?!
Who is going to condemn Israel now?
Every single decent person on the planet as we have been doing for decades. (2nd time I've tried to post this comment that YT seems to find unacceptable).
@Ysocdude Piers* (pronounced Pierz)
@@johnnyrocker7495 Aye, they are complicit by censoring dissenting voices.
They have rights to defend themselves always
Not Ian Dale, he supports the starvation of civilians in Gaza
They used the weapons we sold them
Boomerang effect
We don't actually know that, nor would it matter if they did or not.
This was a war crime. It is against the Geneva convention and the drone operator is a soldier in a national military. This is not robot warfare, and even if it was whomever initiated the program is culpable and has blood on their hands
Israel..... We investigated this one ande we found that we are 100% innocent. We've nothing to do with that
Isreal knew the nationalities of these aid workers and couldn't care less. Nathanyahu is unhinged and should be stopped
...how dare they didn't veto the UNSC resolution
Isarhelli society wants this not just one figure head - remember it's a democratic society right so they voted for this to happen
How can intention be measured when aid workers are murdered in cold blood.?
Where is the humanity?
Its like asking a serial killer to investigate their own crime...
Why r we surprised from what happened.this what they have been doing for 75 years
Angry not surprised
The drone has a high resolution camera to enable it to see its targets. The vehicles in the convoy had clear WCK logos on their rooves which would have been clearly visible from the drone camera.
So the drone operator would have known what and who they were targeting and the drone commander who gave the permission to fire would also have known who and what they were targeting. So that kind of makes the unintentional excuse hard to swallow.
They shot and killed a frightened child, stuck in the remains of a car people who loved her were fleeing in after the IDF had targeted that car, enough has been and gone
UK demands nothing More meaningless handwringing to give the impression they are doing something
My heart is broken for all these aid workers. Sympathy to their families.
Where is the same outrage for the >30k Palestinians dead?
Sunak: "We want answers". Netanyahu: "NO". Sunak: "Okay, thats fine, would you like some more weapons sir?"
One wonders just what the Israelis have to do before the world says ‘Enough’.
I'm fearful there is literally *no* limit...
A lot of us said enough the moment they started killing civilians, but the politicians and press wanted to label anyone against Israel as anti-Semitic.
Yet another word they seek to claim as 'theirs'.
I don’t think the Uk demands anything from anyone today. On the world stage we are irrelevant
That's a ridiculous thing to say. Even countries with little or no relevance on the world stage can protest and demand answers for the killing of their nationals by another state. Is the UK so irrelevant that we aren't allowed to have normal diplomatic procedures with other countries? Your statement means absolutely nothing and adds nothing to this conversation.
@@ecaeas4439She's correct. You clearly don't know who owns who.
Yes we would be irrelevant if we were not the ones selling them the bombs
Little sunak : Israel has investigated and found themselves not guilty and I the little me is happy with their conclusion, they have the right to defend themselves from food
And in their seek find and steal identified mAsSiVe OIL reserves below Gaza for FREE. Swhy they want no neighbours around once they begin the lift.
UK politicians couldn't careless for aid worker's
It was intentional. It is another way of keeping aid away from Palestinians.
The vehicles literally had trackers. Any aid worker needs to declare themselves to the IDF, who then provide trackers precisely so they know not to attack them. So this was absolutely deliberate, I imagine we will be told they worked with hamas.
It doesn't matter what Benji insists happened. The facts are obvious. Aid workers were purposely targeted (3 times) and murdered. The military tech is way too advanced to be "unintentional".
*Have the right allies and the international community will turn a blind eye to war crimes.*
have you seen how some israeli are happy and even mocking the victims of this other crime
They were cooking antisemitic food
I don't like the "soft, soft" nature of questioning here in.
1000s of innocent people died as well
Even if they dropped a nuke some governments would be like, hey human shields
Demands answers?! It’s like telling a serial killer, “hey, explain yourself!!”
I think they wanted to get rid of the organization which seems it’s going to work.
“Demand answers” how ridiculous is this caption. How about take action, impose sanctions, and stop sending weapons.
why is any country supporting this , There is no excuse
"WE MUST STOP THIS MONSTER"!!!
The only way to stop this is to end the occupation
How will the UK retaliate?
They won't
They will increase sales of weapon.... to Israel
You tube, just because you erase my comment doesn't make it untrue. If I were a family member of the victims, I would sue every country that supplies weapons to Israel
They don’t want that smoke. Uk are babies man 😂
They should have cut all funding and trade deals with Israel the moment they started attacking civilians, but our corrupt politicians are more interested in lining their own pockets.
The world is afraid of five people
Exactly.
Netanyahu needs to be arrested and put on trial.
If this was the action of some mid-level commander going rogue, then we can expect the Israeli government to prosecute that individual.
If that does not happen, then it will be right to conclude that this was on the orders of Netanyahu.
'Those who want to think ill of Israel' how very disingenuous.
“Isreal has a right to defend itself! Period! “ -- successive UK Prime Ministers
Exactly, our own leaders and politicians essentially gave them permission to do this.
They need to be more careful! That's laughable!!!
"... the chicken will always come home to roost."
You say you "don't have all the details " and you may make excuses for them for the atks but you ALREADY KNOW WHAT HAPPENED, BUT WHEN ISRAEL SAYS ANYTHING YOU DON'T ASK FOR DETAILS AND INSTEAD GO ALONG WITH REGURGITATING AND PERPETUATING THEIR LIES
What about doctors and other healthcare workers that have been killed, detained,terrorized and humiliated over 6 months?
It is a new crime added to Israeli crimes list
what hold does Israel have over the UK and USA. Cos there's something.
Horrific crime is far more accurate than the word tragedy.
RIP ,sadly we only realised now
What about the 32000 people who got killed in the last 6Months
Intentional.
Isreal.have the right to defend themselves against food trucks 😐
Every time this is discussed they have to mention “3 of them, British citizens” but the 30,000 Palestinians didn’t mean anything to half of LBC.
Because they are a British news station. Of course they are taking about the British civilians killed.
They gave them permission to be there and knew where they were going to be. One time is a mistake, twice u r pushing it, 3 times is def intentional. How is this not intentional 🤨🤡🤦🏽♀️?
as they say in the intel community, once is happenstance, twice is coincidence, third time is enemy action.
100s of “mistakes”. That says it all
Are we going to hear that under the cars had tunnels and a big weapon catch
Probably. The doughnuts contained weapons!! Or some other lame excuse.
How many so called accidents must happen until people realise this is a deliberate policy?
How about UKand US stop arming them .just asking.
I condemn Israel's invasion
Why is LBC removing comments?
try refreshing your screen.. it may reappear
They can't be questioned, they're the chosen ones
There will be no answers given, only condolences
Bro do you condemn Israel now ?😅
We've declared war over much less than this.
Why humanity make gaza safe for children also?
Can they do nothing wrong?
If this what they do when they're happy to work with you, i can't imagine if they're not happy with you...
Goodluck getting those answers
Iain Dale what changed for you? Because you have always said they can do everything and anything to defend themselves from unarm civilians.
You’re going to believe their lies like you always have so there is nothing and nobody to question. Stop wasting the time of the most moral army of the world.
Israel is like...OK, we have done everything there is to deliberately create an outrage...let's take it up a notch, shall we?
IDF playing the life of innocent people,they don't care where you from as long as qoute of died in single are met.civilian or militants
Why are you afraid to say it is a terrorist act. Even on your citizens you cannot say it.
Conflict of Interest....
Demand a ceasefire and then this would not happen! Free Palastine ❤️🇦🇪
We cant "demand" a ceasefire, we dont have the power to do that, imo.
Get real ... your question of how to make aid workers safe in Gaza?
UNSC should immediately deploy Blue Helmets troops into Gaza to protect aid workers, innocent people, allow safe passage of aid
Hmmm
If you comment on this crime, they will say you are antisemitic
Demand?? … this was “friendly” fire and apologies expressed … listen to the presenter typically moving on “how do we ensure it does not happen again” … seriously …
“Israel has the right to defend itself from UK, Poland, Canada and US”
“Hamas used the workers as human shields”
“Hamas embedded themselves in the 7 workers”
“Hamas is to blame, they started the war”
Hamas
Hamas
Hamas
How ridiculous!
Israel has the right to defend itself from kitchen workers and aid workers.
