U.K. BLOCKS ISRAELI ARMS DEALS

UK Blocks Israel Arms Deals - George Conger (Jerusalem Post)
The British government has blocked almost one third of British military exports to Israel this year, citing possible threats to regional stability and fears the equipment might facilitate human rights violations. According to official figures, the value of UK military sales to Israel declined by one-third last year, and has fallen by 75% since 2005.

The Brits are whores; bet the IDF gets the equipment through a middle man in Panama or an African country. Anyway most British made stuff is inferior, particularly their autos. How could their military stuff be any better?
