Is Israel and the US seeking to deflect blame for their war crimes onto the UK?

I’m asking this important question because I’m shocked at the wasted life. Did the US submarine give the torpedoed crew of the Iran ship a chance to surrender?

Something like 87 +++ dead (?) and the US sub might have been earlier visiting the Diego Garcia base in the Chagos Islands, which Trump has criticised the UK about.

Here is the story and important context, plus a link.

This raises important questions about the limits of state behavior in international waters.

Telegraph:

This seems to be placing protection of human life as less important than protecting trade, stopping inflation

Weird thing to say because the insurers clearly are worried about Iran’s military might. That’s why they are withdrawing cover, right?

Context

So Britain is now complicit in this US-Israel war on Iran ….and any war crimes …like it arguably is in the Gaza violence?
