Yes even their embrace of Lawrence of Arabia shows their arabist leanings. Then there is the BBC which does what it can to introduce Jew hate into its programming. British officers joined Jordan to kill Jews.
John Bagot Glubb was a kind of revenge for Orde Wingate, I guess.
And don't forget Disraeli, or the Balfour Declaration, or Churchill.
Okay, so Brits don't side with Jews 100% of the time. They don't always side with anyone 100% of the time, not even with themselves. That's normal.
Yes fair enough. I recall arguing with an old man I met in London, and when I told him the PLO was worse than the IRA he almost flipped his lid. Maybe its more an element of the British left? I recall the BBC production Ivanhoe. If you read the book by Sir Walter Scott it is far more sympathetic on Issac of York than the BBC. The BBC portrayed Issac an old greedy Jew.
