Closed Send hospital ship to gaza

Closed on

This petition has been sent to the MOD for the reason in the governments description of this department which is:
"The aim of the Ministry of Defence and the Armed Forces is: to deliver security for the people of the United Kingdom and the Overseas Territories by defending them, including against terrorism; and to ACT AS A FORCE FOR GOOD BY STRENGTHENING INTERNATIONAL PEACE AND STABILITY" Therefore:
We the undersigned ask HM Government to send without delay The hospital ship RFA Argus which is moored in Falmouth.UK. to Gaza to assist in in the distress of its peoples because She is uniquely designed for this type of necessity. Since Israel has abrogated its responsibility to the citizens of Gaza, we request that the British Government unilaterally and rapidly deploys RFA Argus to Gaza.

We as a nation should be at the forefront of the humanitarian response, a pioneering lead from the UK in the face of traumatic world events.
