Letters From A Tory Daily views on British politics and the Conservative Party from a centre-right thinker who writes letters on his blog to politicians, journalists and many others.

Dear Israeli government,

Needless to say the continuing support you receive from the USA remains a factor in the continuing violence in the Middle East and you seem to enjoy a certain amount of immunity to blame as a result.  This could not have been better demonstrated in the dearth of media coverage for the claims that on September 6th you secretly bombed Syria on the basis of your intelligence reports.  I’m not one for letting every country get hold of potentially dangerous weapons, but your complete disregard for international cooperation or approval on such matters flies in the face of efforts to improve the economic and political stability in the Middle East.

If you had evidence that Syria was attempting to acquire nuclear material, I have no doubt that the international community would have joined your efforts to prevent this from coming to fruition – but yet again, your lack of respect for diplomacy and peaceful intervention leaves tensions in the Middle East at breaking point.  Congratulations.

Yours in anger,

A.Tory
