What role has the United Kingdom played in Israel’s war on Gaza? We meet those who say it’s complicit in atrocities committed there. During the Gaza war, protesters have flooded the streets of major British cities, calling on their leaders to cut off the supply of weapons and other military hardware to Israel.
