If these Brits were simply security contractors their presence and participation would have been--and certainly was--cleared by the Israelis. It was their intel involvement that was not cleared, but was surely known.
Well i could understand the spying accusation If, they had been doing like the Wall Street journal reporter asking questions about Russian missile production facilities or the ex marine whelan who was caught receiving a thumb drive of information, the subject matter which, has never been revealed. I personally think they were both CIA affiliated, even though the government denies it. As more information becomes available I guess we will see. But at this point, being a security contractor does not make you a spy
As an aside, and I think LJ touched on this during the Friday Intel Roundup, whatever gave José Areas the idea that his mission in Gaza, no matter how noble the intention, would get a pass from the Israelis? How naïve! To claim to have received the IDF’s blessing to deliver food to the starving, when it is precisely starvation that is the Israeli policy (backed by us) to me at least, betrays a stunning unrealism and arrogance that cost the lives of his devoted employees. Too bad Areas probably won’t get the brutal lesson. But then, when you hob-nob with the likes of the Blinkens, Bidens and le tout Washington…
The regimes that wish to suppress the truth by labeling it dis-mis-information so that propaganda, or known by others as public relations, is the only information allowed. Liars can never share the stage as the truth would overwhelm their lies. They are sowing confusion so that their dirty deeds are made to look like noble intentions. Another manifestation of the "Noble Lie."
In the early 20th Century UK entered into plans to re-instate Israel as country in order to provide rebuilding of Temple. As I read/understand it, the 'belief' (mortals in action, ugh) is/was that requirement getting met would usher Christ's return.
My poor memory recalls history of the OT Israel Nation did poorly when some king or leader decided God'd be with them in their war-ventures. That is, not being at God's direction, results have generally been unfavorable. I genuinely am concerned what is going on in ME today is in that Un-God-Directed vein with results that will fit historical precedence.
Hope you and your are doing well - my best regards! (WrH)
Guess you don’t remember black water? They’re called contractors. They provide security for a high price

We're the evil monkey on America's shoulder.
