THE United Kingdom recently asked its nationals living in Lebanon, including Lebanese with British passports, to leave the country immediately on security grounds. The UK chartered a few flights to help its citizens in this regard.

Would it not be rather appropriate for the UK to charter flights for the occupiers of Palestine to leave the occupied land? In fact, Germany, Ukraine, Russia, France, Australia and Poland should all charter planes to take their nationals back to their countries. The moment this happens, there will be peace and nothing but peace in Palestine.

As things stand today, aid continues to flow to the occupiers, instead of making its way to the oppressed and the occupied. With the war having entered Lebanon, there have been reports of French dual nationals participating alongside Zionist forces in killing Lebanese people.

That being so, the French and the British are fighting the Arabs just as they did a century ago when they divided the Arab land under the much infamous Sykes-Picot Agreement.

The Arabs need to end the military pacts with all the Western countries. They have a history of being treacherous. They are not and will never be the saviours.

Undoubtedly, the entire West is aiding and abetting the occupation to kill the Arabs. Resistance is the only way forward.
