Keir Starmer's Secret War on Gaza with Matt Kennard
There’s an assumption that the West have remained honest brokers in the Gaza genocide, or at least critical friends of Israel. My guest today Matt Kennard argues that contrary to public utterances, the British government, like the Americans are deeply involved in Israel’s merciless bombing of Gaza. They are providing military support, intelligence, diplomatic cover whilst at the same time claiming they want a quick resolution to the slaughter.
Matt is an independent journalist and author of three books Irregular Army, Silent coup and The Racket
