The United Kingdom has suspended trade talks with Israel and will impose sanctions on West Bank illegal settlers. On Tuesday, Prime Minister Keir Starmer called Israel’s announcement that it would allow a small quantity of food into Gaza for its starving population of over 2 million “totally and utterly inadequate.” This is British Foreign Secretary David Lammy.
David Lammy: “The world is judging. History will judge them. Blocking aid, expanding the war, dismissing the concerns of your friends and partners, this is indefensible, and it must stop.”
History indeed remembers. No coincidence half the world has an “independence from the English” day.
Never on one of those days the 45M people of famines deads in India by the English empire are talk about.
My dude, I grew up in bumfuck Eastern Europe. Our textbooks and history classes that were so shitty that we spent like 4 lessons in total on WWII and the Cold War in total (with a cutoff date of like 1980), had a whole chapter on the incredible cruelty the British Empire had towards the people of India. Pictures of people blown from guns, descriptions of the famines, Gandhi and all that stuff.
There was practically more time spent on it than the Holocaust.
I understand why you’re saying what you’re saying though, and I’d just like you to know, many people didn’t forget.
