Not that fair really, They are there to report UK related news so wont give as much air time as AlJ does. They also tend to be a little slower to get some of the AlJ news to a broadcast and have introduced news now and news now verified. These may not get to the main news. Depends on what is happening UK wise. They do cover the conflict and at times bring out further information such as the UK visit to look at aid supply.

Personally I think the BBC does the best good job overall...
But Al Jazeera certainly has a better angle on things than Fox News!
It seems the ICJ has repeated it's rulings on aid as now worse than it was when they first ruled on it. Also added no military interference with it. Report wanted within a month.
The State of Israel shall, in conformity with its obligations under the Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide, and in view of the worsening conditions of life faced by Palestinians in Gaza, in particular the spread of famine and starvation:

(b) By fifteen votes to one,Ensure with immediate effect that its military does not commit acts which constitute a violation of any of the rights of the Palestinians in Gaza as a protected group under the Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide, including by preventing, through any action, the delivery of urgently needed humanitarian assistance;

Politics but may be relevant. Will Biden ever give Israel the red light. Given sufficient popular backing he might. Do the various noises coming out indicate an attempt to change public opinion? Suppose it depends on how their media play it.
The Rafar meeting is back on. No date so far. Seems to have been requested by Benjamin.
The others have been with Israel's defence sec.

Been curious about the lack of news response on this but today the IDF have admitted the incident, and added some context.
LOL It was all a plot?
Benjamin the negotiator yo-yo has started them up again.
Related to Gaza. Some UN peacekeeper force types have been injured by a strike near the Lebanese boarder. Not sure by who. It seems this type of presence has been their for a long time to help the official Leb forces etc and do other things. They have reported reluctance from Leb in the past, Also a group that monitors report Israel's use of white phosphorus there.. Another it's effect on arable land.
Huitis - they will withdraw to where Israel wants if there is a permanent Gaza ceasefire. Seems there are boarder disputes as well.
Leaks. Reuters and Wash Post. US giving Israel some $b worth of planes and bombs.
The new arms packages include more than 1,800 MK84 2,000-pound bombs and 500 MK82 500-pound bombs, said the sources, who confirmed a report in the Washington Post.
The decision on weapons follows a visit to Washington by Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant this week when he discussed Israel's weapons needs with U.S. counterparts.
Alj mentioned seeing bigger bangs recently and wondered what was being used.

Israel hit an islamic jehad command centre. Looked drone like. Not that big a bang. A tent in a hospital for-area. Another tent near it had journalists in it. Maybe 1 or 2 dead and one of BBC's local ones and others injured,
Benjamin is having a hernia opp this evening. Pacemaker fitted last year,

Tens of thousands protesting in Tel Aviv and other cities/towns in Israel against bibi and the slaughter in Gaza...
I guess those jewish people must be 'anti semitic', being they are going against bibi's plan to wipe out the idea of a Palestinian state...
Or is it only 'gentiles' who can be accused of such thinking?

And just to think, the future of the middle east could depend on the accuracy of the surgeon's scalpel

The protests are against bibi and his failure to secure the release of Israeli hostages.
A bit of a problem. Seems a lot of Israeli support the war.
There has been more deaths when aid arrives. Same area as previous ones. Latest a bit different. Those bringing the aid fired warning shots and the IDF opened fire as well. Mention of some being run over by the trucks. No video so far of any use.
Air drops. They look to be mostly boxes not all that big with meals in them. US comment about quantities - one decent meal a day helps a lot. They are using larger parachutes to reduce the rate they fall at.
No comments so far on how the aid bought by barge is getting on.
Both sides aren't to blame. The occupation and theft of Palestine is solely to blame.
According to the BBC they have been joined by other groups. The lot that complained about law changes a while a go and the get shut of Benjamin group.
Ireland are highly like to see it that way. It's just a different political approach. To please UK and US HAMAS has to be seen in the worst possible way and that has to be mentioned as it has been in their submissions to the security council. However both the UK and US are not keen on aspects that show Israel in a bad light. Main reason for US veto use.
