- The prime minister, Rishi Sunak, told MPs at a liaison committee that too many civilians are 'dying' in Gaza but rebuffed questions on whether Israel had violated international humanitarian law or whether it was responsible for the death toll during a tense exchange with Conservative foreign affairs select committee chair, Alicia Kearns.

I bet this guy would defend Israel over the British people.
Of course. His wife’s 1.5 billion oil deal with Isreal will be part of it. He would sell his granny for a fiver
If he defends Palestine he'd lose the wealthy white mans vote.
what's the difference?
What British people!!!!
Us brits needs this guy out! He can not represent us and will surely defend Israel and India over Britain
With all due respect to the British PEOPLE.
Sunak doesn’t even care about the British public, why on earth would he care about the people dying in Palestine
Very true. Not voting Conservative nor Labour. Only option green party
No need for respect. Say it how it is. That man only sees money not lives. He fooled many with his prim & proper persona. He has a vile black heart.
Well said
@@Mearth311Green Party are not an option while they support a return to the EU - the same EU also backing Israel. There are no current options to vote for.
People has short memory.
People forgotten the History.
She is far more better than all the western journalists asking the lightweight PM tough questions. We need more ppl like her.
She is far more braver and intelligent that all western leaders plus their wives combined together..including sunaks, bidens, nyetanyahu s of this world!
Agreed
She didn't mention Hamas once .Sunak laid the blame where it belongs .On Hamas .
Other people who bombed, want to blame others, illogical thinking, the Palestinians have not been there for decades So they have the right to defend themselves, israel shooting dead a little boy in the west bank is hamas wrong too, right? Clearly in the video, Israel shot dead Palestinian children, but Hamas was blamed😂
@@davidmontgomery9846 blame lies with the self serving policies of the Bibi far right extreme government and failure by Israel to abide by international law.
Sunak well briefed on hasbra language and talking points: 'Too many civilians are dying' and not 'Too many civilians are being killed by our bombs we supplied for free'. It's like they just die suddenly, for no apparent reason.
N he s well versed now in their language or he ll be packed home.
It was clear how timidity he answered the questions
BTW US,Israel and west can only fight civillians, not hamas
@@BdBoy-ie7tfSo Hamas chickened out and absconded from Gaza? 😅
At some point this is going to come back on Sunak badly...
What might we learn from this man, absolutely nothing.
Lol
😂
He an absolute joke of a prime minister.
och, do aye detect a wee cynicism in emergence 'ere?
How to serve yourself at ANY cost.
Her line of questioning was so accurate and much needed!
Too bad it never proves anything. These ghouls just repeat the same rubbish.
Her questions were vague and frankly rubbish. She clearly has no concept on how wars are fought.
His line of answering was so accurate and much needed.
@@adityamulay6401don’t comment on topics you have no idea about. It comes across as idiocy.
@@johnrambo99999 Hard to take your comment seriously when the questions were objectively not vague. Whether or not they were rubbish is a matter of opinion, but vague? No.
At some point, one has to wonder if all the double talk and evasiveness is actually causing more political damage than just coming out and admitting whatever it is that he thinks he's not supposed to say. All it does is reinforce the sense that he's a slippery eel.
I think you’re on to something
I agree, it all leads on to the idea that politicians are not honest and authentic. It is no longer a 'smart move' to evade questions you don't want to answer.
is he even actually in charge or does he just get paid c.120k pa with free lodgings to repeat the latest soundbite mantra of the day?
@@gavinmc5285you’re forgetting his busy schedule of helicopter flights
It isn't the public he's scared of though, it's Israel. They own everybody
He’s digging himself a big grave
Err... Bonfire in his religion 😂
He couldn't even remember what he said when he lies all the time 😂
Lol
faking it: in this week's episode, rishi pretends that he's still in charge and has got it all under control. the tories have his back and labour simply don't know what they're talking about. luckily, christmas gets in the way so happy new year instead.
Its a real shame for the British people to have Rishi Sunak as their Prime Minister!!! Really feel pity for the British corrupt politics!
You get the government you deserve

@@CHRISdiary77264 says an Indian smh
@@tahmasp6624 Who you are I am from INDIA and we proud of Rishi Sunak is best Pm of British ever and ever ...thats it 🇮🇳🤝🇬🇧
@@CHRISdiary77264lol, sunaks party is going to get wiped out at the next election. He's not fit for the role.
So Sunak didn’t think about all this when he went to encourage natenyaho to carry on the war. He’s still trying to play the hamas card
The US lapdog. Now Biden wants to an change I strategy because over 20,000 have been killed (maybe the quota was 25,000, 30,000, 45, 000. Who knows even 50,000) and so the UK tail is wagging too because the master has said so.
I've no particular affection for Torries but Hamas played the Hamas card, not Sunak. No Hamas attack = no retaliatory strike. Basic math really.
@FRM101 No occupation from 75 yrs ago and illegal settlement,, no strikes that would need retaliatory strikes. Even more basic logic.
Died?? Why not you say " Killed".
Number of people killed in Gaza 18 ,000, including 5,000, thousands of children and thousands under the rubble as a result of the bombing
save peopel save life stop war now
These guys really demonstrate the meaning of DOUBLE STANDARDS 😮. WHAT A RIDICULOUS SIGHT. IN FACT PATHETIC WOULD BE MORE PRECISE.. 😢
We don’t have a House of Commons. What we have is a House of Globalists.
they're all being given a free tesla for christmas then? hope they register that on the members interest slate.

Rather say, Common House for Globalists
I can't decide whether you're referencing the grand Bristish tradition for global empire, or blowing a dog whistle for antisemitism.
@@FRM101 globalism, the politicians do almost exactly what they’re told. The U.N & WEF went into full partnership years ago. U.N was set up so one day could become 1 world government. WEF is private, corporate arm of U.N.

Wrong, that would be Turkey and Iran.

And still maroons keep parotting that argument.
Literally no pro-Palestinian denies that Israel has a right to defend itself
His father in laws company has israeli contracts. BP UK has also been issued licences to explore Gas of the gaza coast at end of october. His father in laws company won a 1.5 billion contract with BP prior to this. Both labour and conservatives are given money through Friends of Israel.

@gavinmc5285 Well, make your research, Gaza natural oil, BP as keywords.. just Google it
@@gavinmc5285 Do your research. Gaza natural gas, BP .. easy do find
We need a full enquiry into how the Israeli forum influenced our government and how the Sunak family were involved in business dealings in Israel that swayed his position not to act against Israel.
What a low form of prime minister.
Probably worst president Uk ever had supporting genocide
If Hamas embedded itself in tel aviv would the response and Fishy’s answer be the same?
Absolutely not
Now your just being silly
Of course not. If Israel is attacked, everybody will be called an antisemite or a Hamas supporter
Actually Piers Morgan asked Israeli ambassador Mark Regev that same question and the answer was of course not, in Tel Aviv they would have used smart weapons with surgical precision not to sacrifice civilians but they are bombing Gaza without such scruples because it is enemy territory and he referred to WW2 and how allies have bombed Germany indiscriminately so it is what it is.
@@anismatar thank you. So it’s pretty clear that they do not care about Palestinian civilians when they say they do.
Genocide denial
So October 7th wasnt Genocide ?
Rishi Sunak is despicable
We need more people like her.

Israel has no right to defend itself under international law , because it's an occupation force, on the other hand Palestinians have that right to resist occupation under international law, once occupation ends, then it can. It's like saying Britain, and France have the right to defend themselves against African during the colonial times.
Well said
Israel is doing what Britain and France did 150 years ago
Well said👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Well said and it annoys me that these genocidal leaders of ours don’t seem to realise this
gaza is not occupied
The word weasel comes to mind. What a joke.
When they later ask him what did you mean that “too many civilians are dying” he will come back in his defence and claim he was talking about Covid.
Well done! You had Rishi Sunak quivering
She is far more effective than all the Guardian's journalistic activities on the Palestinian massacre in these 70 days!
She made him uncomfortable 😂
because his lack of moral clarity is inconsistent with the office he holds
the sheer spinelessness of our politicians when it comes to standing up to Israel is shocking!
how about standing up to terrorists?
What a robot

It is not the eyes that is blind, but heart.
Now just imagine if Sunak was cross examined in a court of law over this issue . He'll end up answering the defense's last question with , " YOU CAN'T HANDLE THE TRUTH " .
Why would he be on trial ffs it's none of the UKs business
@@dg9015because they're supplying arms to a genocidal regime. There's a risk he's complicit. Some politicians put on notice including sunak of potential private prosecutions. Senior partner at Bindmans law firm is part of the team building the legal case
@@dg9015then why UK is funding Israel ?
That or “I can’t recall and all my emails have mysteriously disappeared”
LoL😅

Sunak: “Too many civilians are dying is different from saying humanitarian law has been broken”
Which school did he go to?
Is he saying that the civilians are attacking Israel so in self defence that is why lot's of civilians are dying
in a roundabout way he's trying not to say there's no such thing as civilians in gaza. but politically he can't say that.
Why is he smirking all the time now? He is totally abandoned by his party and his wife has gone to California, leaving him for prison. He's gone completely insane in my opinion.
Only !$real have the right to put words on prime minister mouth no one else. Lot of innocent civilian died but yet his saying !$rael have eight to defend it self? Against who young children of Gaza, young children of Palestine? He's body language tell the story. Feel sorry for him
I have a dog at my home whose name is rishi and he always bark
Both parties are controlled ❕
The idea though Rishi is - if Hamas are surrounded by innocent people it is generally accepted that if you are a responsible army - you dont blast your way through the human shields.
What would you suggest Israel do.
True
@@ethalminiellis3032 end occupation, negotiate, use special forces, literally every other method?
@@ethalminiellis3032premièrement arrêtez la colonisation des terre palestinienne et toutes les violations, oppressions et injustices et le Hamas disparaîtra de suite
Voilà ce que Israël devrait faire car si vous croyez qu'en tuant plusieurs civils ça va les aider a éradiquer le Hamas sachez qu'avec ces bombardement ne fait qu'augmenter et fortifier le Hamas
@@ethalminiellis3032you don't know what you're talking about, gaza is still occupied. IDF may have left but Israel still maintains effective control and therfore gaza is still occupied.
Israel should end apartheid, end the illegal siege, dismantle illegal settlements in the west bank, stop kidnapping and holding without charge Palestinian children, stop killing journalists, stop using deadly force on children that demonstrate and on general abide by international law. All the above was happening before Oct 7th.
He just cant bring himself to say it even though his face says it all. Mr PM did Hamas embedd itself in those 2 women in the church?
And the three Israeli hostages killed by the IDF
He makes Tony Blair look like a saint
The legal advice given to the government was : The UK could be complicit in war crimes in Gaza and could face legal action if it does not do more to "restrain" Israel, instead of defending and justifying Israelis genocide of Palestinians
The job of the British government, is to govern Britain, it has no right or authority, to interfere with the internal politics of Israel, maybe if everyone was actually interested in the crisis that Britain is facing, we could actually solve our problems.
I totally agree with you
Not could be! Are complicit, are aiding. Should definitely be charged with War Crimes!!!!; Free Palestine
That's the LEAST of concerns. What about the public safety of civilians during this month of December? Brits, STAY HOME. Avoid Christmas events, skip NYE at Big Ben, avoid large crowds, avoid London city center. STAY HOME. UK's government is making too many people mad.
@@Kyoto99952 it's like lockdown all over again but this is his way of trying to control our every movements he's like all dictator's it's start with little things and then before we know it we are like all the other countries that have dictator's

He is not elected.
He didden't I'm afraid...
SUNAK, Having "DIFFICULTIESSS..." Answering the questions😂
0:19 Wow he can't and won't even.admit indiscriminate bombings!!!I like how this woman's challenging this coward
After that interview he must have downed a whole bottle.
He apparently has connections to Aipac so thats why his stance is as such!.🇵🇸✌
She’s got him on the ropes there! The only person Sunak is trying to convince is himself.
Can someone press him on the mess Britain is in, and what he is going to do about it?
Deer caught in headlights
I think he has forgotten nursery education. This happens to chameleons. Either support evil Israel or support humanity, don't try to be a better player in both.
why no one is questioning Sunak conflict of interest of his father in law infosys GAS DEAL IN GAZE OFF SHORE with BP? is it okay for a prime minister to be supportive of a war crime that supports his family financial interests?
You got the main point of the whole issue behind this man
Can you believe after all these centuries and people like him, his wife and his inlaws have no problem making money off of blood. For some people greed is their only religion.
..........and this bloke is in charge. Just let that sink in a moment 🤔
"I don't have access to..... dont remember the... dont recall the...haven't read the ... precise blah blah blah but concentrating on the top 5 priorities of protecting cronies, offshoring large amounts of money, blaming everything on the vulnerable, making sure there are enough scapegoats to get re-elected and stitching up the NHS"

This Prime Minister is obviously been sponsored by the Conservative Friends of Israel. I think that ALL donations to ALL MPs in Westminster regardless of what party they stans for or which house they sit in should declare the amounts received from the Conservative Friends of Israel and the Labour Friends of Israel. I think that Israel should spend more time and energy cultivating friendships with it's neighbours.
Hear hear
Israel is as responsible for the missiles it shoots, the bombs it drops, the bullets it shoots at innocent Palestinians. As Hamas is responsible for the killings of innocent civilians on the 7th of October. Making Hamas responsible for Israel’s actions is akin as making Israel responsible for the actions of Hamas. ………….notwithstanding that the latter conclusion has at least some logic as Israel was instrumental in the resurgence of Hamas by bringing its original leader back and since giving it support in its rivalry with Fatah.
Well said👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
When hamas hides in civilian populations, they are responsible for the extra civilian deaths that occur as a result.
Do you know exactly what happened on Oct 7? Why have videos, cctv's or whatever they are called, gone missing as per the IDF. You think maybe someone wants to hide the truth. How many Israelis were killed by the IDF on that day?
so well put!
We need more people like this gentle angel lady
I was initially happy as someone of Indian origin, that Sunak was in power.I was happy with the smoking bans which which will save thousands of lives.Also thought he did well with the suppot of businesses during covid.
However, his blind support of Israel in carrying out war crimes, and his and his party's stance against Pro Palestinians whilst genocide is going on is sickening. Labour is the same.
❤️
It doesn't matter if its the US, Canada, UK, or anywhere else, pathetic, futile politicians are everywhere.
What a flipping tos
Always blaming hamas for the killings of Palestinians. Maybe he should start blaming israel for the attacks on 7 october
Excellent comment.
Sunak wasnt there lol nothing to do with him. He wasnt at the festival. He was at a rave.
Rishis private Businesses are linked to Israel businessmen of course he won’t agree to a ceasefire nor say the actions of the Israeli government is against humanitarian law. Plain and simple !!
Hyprocite pure and simple
So basically he knows that it’s genocide and he’s been told it’s all seriously breaking international law as if it didn’t even exist. Prosecute this man.
Failing to just tell the truth.The truth counts for nothing these days
makes sense as to how a £750m fortune can be accumulated though
He’s keep saying they died what is wrong with him.
Would sunak authorise the blowing up of a block of flats with civilians in it if he thought a militant was in it?
Of course not. This human shield argument is wearing thin
It's also never been proven and is a alligation
@@constantinvaldor3742it has been proven. But it's the IDF that uses it. As per independent watch groups, the IDF will have Palestinians sit around a tank. They will be behind a Palestinian firing at their enemy. Norman Finkelstein mentioned this in a video.
The way it's looking is rishi sunak has got a death wish lol
Brown or Black country they would give 10 yrs of sanctions for this 💡❕❕

Everyone lives are very precious and valuable. Only one life.
Any U.K. government that shows too high respect for Israel during their tenure is already a worrying sight for British politics. We’ve seen the effects of this in U.S. politics
They only need USA to be fair. USA made sure they don't need no one else at the UN
And then Sunak realised he had made his greatest mistake - having an opinion. 'Too many'. He just wanted to sound like a nice guy and had already exhausted the 'proportionate response' cliche. Now he had suggested a threshold had been exceeded and, no matter how he squirmed, everyone had noticed. It was tough when the situation did not as usual, rest entirely on his power of being ultra rich. He desperately reached out for Eylon Levy talking points.
'too many mans, there's too many man'
They got him 😂… got him on a very tight leash 😂
Not privy??? So he’s NOT asking questions???

Did Mr Sunak fully realize what he was letting Britain in for, when he just agreed with Mr Netanyahu: "Yes, I want you to win...with you all the way". In retrospect, doesn't it seem like an unquantified obligation of huge proportions ?
