The appeals court also said it was likely the F-35s were being used in attacks on Gaza, leading to unacceptable civilian casualties. It dismissed the Dutch state’s argument that it did not have to do a new check on the permit for the exports.
The Dutch governmental argument is so weak lol. “They already have the export permit so there’s nothing that we can do” isn’t a real defense. Major kudos to the judges who held firm and said no more genocide.
I’d be happier if military aid to Israel consisted of nothing but F-35s. And American-made ones.
What? Israel has F-35s?
I guess so. Their parts are made/shipped in The Netherlands and the court has now decided that since they are used to commit war crimes their productions and export has to stop.
They use them to bomb Syria
IOF often get new western military gadgets first to test them out on innocent Palestinians.
For a long time now. First F-35s were delivered to Israel 7 years ago.
Guess the mission I’m making on DCS will have to go back a few decades then 🥲
Fox 3
Anyone have any good reading on the end of the apartheid government in South Africa? That’s the closest parallel I see to Israel.
The moral solution would be continuing the supply but sabotaging the parts
