"Did the British know Tel Aviv intended to launch an intensive air and ground campaign against Beirut, which came to pass a year later?"
I ask the same question with regard to the USS Liberty attack "by Israel." Is there any doubt that listening station on Cyprus, looking like the orb in The Prisoner, didn't pick up Israel's radio traffic in the hours preceding the attack? There can be only 2 possible scenarios: Britain helped Israel or stood down and let the slaughter happen.

I hadn't considered that before. Yet it makes perfect sense.
Does this effort to influence the US actually benefit the UK? Benefit who in the UK?
That the world is dominated by US gangster capitalism can only mean that the UK is a lieutenant in the most sinister criminal enterprise ever.
It's the Master Blaster from Mad Max. Britain is the Master, the US is the Blaster. The Iraq war proves this.
