@Heidi__Matthews Not at all!

@KelGallagh sorry to forget your tag!

Congratulations to Project Ploughshares on an insightful report: Global Production of the Israeli F-35I Joint Strike Fighter. It examines the aircraft's supply chain and identifies component manufacturers in Israel’s F-35 production lots. Read it here: shorturl.at/7gejP

Today we published an extensive and exploratory supply chain analysis of F-35 production Lots associated with the Israeli F-35I program, and the manufacturers behind them: "Global Production of the Israeli F-35I Joint Strike Fighter" ploughshares.ca/reports/global… @ploughshares_ca

Today's High Court hearing delayed any decisions in the case calling for the UK Government to end arms sales to Israel until January. But the people of Gaza cannot wait. Despite admitting that there is a clear risk that UK arms could be used in violations of international law, the UK Government has suspended only 30 arms licences out of 350 – and left a loophole that allows them to continue exporting parts to Israel for F-35 fighter jets, which are being used to bomb Gaza. This makes them complicit in the atrocities being committed and breaks international law. #StopArmingIsrael Sign our petition: bit.ly/Add_YourName

🚨🇺🇸🇮🇱Secretary of State Blinken & Secretary of Defense Austin sent a letter on Monday to Israel demanding it takes steps within 30 days to improve the humanitarian situation in Gaza in order to avoid consequences in U.S. law for U.S. milirary aid to Israel. See letter here:

Multiple countries have argued that, despite human rights concerns regarding the bombing of Gaza, it's impossible to identify their F-35 components transferred to the US and later to Israel. F-35 JPO spox has debunked this in comments to @daniaakkad middleeasteye.net/news/israel-US…

"The federal government has formally laid down a roadblock in front of a deal to ship Quebec-produced ammunition to the United States for onward export to Israel." theglobeandmail.com/politics/artic…

A Canadian company is the only one in the world making a special part for Israeli warplanes bombing Palestinians. In Europe, the existence of such a sole-source supplier of F-35 parts has become “vital” to a legal attempt to halt Dutch exports to Israel. breachmedia.ca/israeli-warpla…

BREAKING — Norway lifts 2019 arms exports restrictions against Turkey.

My comments to the @globeandmail: "Canadian officials must be clear that any and all potential arms transfers through the US to Israel will be disallowed. This does not just include mortar rounds made in Quebec, but also Israel-destined F-35 components produced coast-to-coast.”

NEW: I spoke to Canadian aid groups about why they've joined calls for a real arms embargo on Israel. readthemaple.com/why-canadian-a…
