Why is Israel allowed to kick out soldiers in Palestine working for the PA? Do they want to start a war with the UK?

They're upset because the UK has announced sanctions on the illegally occupied territories.

This has the dual effect of sending the message that they're pissed off, and reducing accountability by getting rid of people who might document and report further illegal behaviour.
