Episode Description from the Publisher

Charles Malet examines claims by the UK Government that there was no UK involvement in offensive action taken by Israel, and the US against Iran and all subsequent military actions have been part of a 'collective self-defence'. Charles analyses continuous claims by the state propaganda machine that the UK will not be drawn into a 'wider war'. What is the wider war, to what extent have the British been drawn in, and where is this conflict heading? In this special segment, illustrated with clips from retired senior British Army officer and author General Sir Richard Shirreff, Charles explores these questions and scrutinises the UK Government’s arguments to see if they stack up.► Join UK Column Live every Monday, Wednesday and Friday at 1pm UK time or watch previous live recordings here: https://bit.ly/UKColumn_Live► [UK Column Website] Explore all our written and video content on the official UK Column website: https://www.ukcolumn.org/► [Support UK Column] Please donate to support our independent journalism & investigative journalism: https://support.ukcolumn.org/► [UK Column YouTube] Please subscribe to the UK Column News YouTube channel for more alternative news and independent news: https://bit.ly/ukcolumnofficialFollow #UKColumn on:► X: https://x.com/ukcolumn► Telegram: https://t.me/ukcolumn► Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/UKColumnExtracts► Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/uk_column_news
