Limuria.
Et America.
No, the Americans may not have permission to use Diego Garcia in order to intervene on one side or the other in any war between Iran and Israel. The United Kingdom will be strictly neutral. Therefore, so will the British Overseas Territories.
But if they could not use their base there whenever and however they liked, then what would be the point of their having it? The place might as well be given back to the Chagossians, who are British.
Quite.
And if that made it impossible for the United States so to intervene militarily on the biggest occasion that Israel had ever sought to order up American military action, effectively destroying their relationship, then, even if only this once, we really would be the best friends that the Americans had ever had.
