How a UK military college sought to distance itself from ban on Israelis

The UK government decided to ban Israelis from attending the Royal College of Defence Studies (RCDS) due to the ongoing war in Gaza, raising concerns about the institution's reputation. RCDS commandant George Norton sought assistance from a general to clarify that the college does not select participants, emphasizing that invitations are a government-to-government matter. This clarification aimed to counter the perception that RCDS was deciding which countries to invite.
