Ah yes Al Quds Day march inspired by the government of Iran, with all the extremism and antisemitism that entails. From the OP "Politicians from both sides of the house said that Police Commissioner Sir Mark Rowley should crack down on the “Iran-inspired” event, scheduled for next Friday. In previous years, it has seen demands for Israel’s destruction and open support for terror groups supported by the Islamic Republic. Lord Walney, the government’s independent adviser on political violence and disruption, said that allowing the “notorious anti-Israel jamboree” to go ahead would risk “serious disorder and antisemitic hatred” after October 7." Or perhaps one of the speakers from last year "Church of England vicar Stephen Sizer, who has previously admitted sharing a post online that suggested Israel was behind 9/11" Perhaps journalists in the article felt the above was enough for most people without the need to contact directly the Islamic Human Rights Commission a group that Jeremy Corbyn claimed “represents all that’s best in Islam” is permeated “at every level” by “extremism, support for overseas terror groups and extreme anti-Semitism” and should be probed by counter-terror police, according to a think tank report. Just a thought.

Israel is at War - General discussion (pt3)

A fact some posters on here forget. “This basic fact remains true: There would be a ceasefire in Gaza today had Hamas simply agreed to release this vulnerable category of hostages – the sick, wounded, elderly, and young women,” the official continues. “Holding these innocent people is outrageous and a reminder as to how this war started in the first place. The onus is on Hamas to release the hostages and bring relief to the people of Gaza through a prolonged ceasefire.” Biden urges Egypt, Qatar leaders to press Hamas to agree to hostage deal — official US President Joe Biden wrote to the leaders of Egypt and Qatar, calling on them to press Hamas to agree to a hostage deal with Israel, a senior administration official tells The Times of Israel. The official, who spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss the private letters, says Biden’s national security adviser will meet Monday with family members of some of the estimated 100 hostages who are believed to still be in Gaza. The letters to Egyptian President Abdel Fattah el-Sissi and Qatar’s ruling emir, Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani, come as Biden has deployed CIA Director Bill Burns to Cairo for talks this weekend about the hostage crisis. https://www.timesofisrael.com/liveblog-april-05-2024/ -
Hundreds of pro-Palestine protesters march through London for Al Quds Day - as Israel supporters stage a counter rally outside of Parliament The Metropolitan Police said it made ten arrests during the protests on Friday, with one man arrested on suspicion of inciting racial hatred after an Israeli flag was burned near the stage in Richmond Terrace. Another man was also arrested after he was heard making a homophobic remark, while another man was arrested for assaulting an emergency worker. The annual Al Quds Day rally - organised by the Islamic Human Rights Commission (IHRC) in support of Palestine - has been criticised in the past after participants flew flags of the Lebanese militant Hezbollah group and brandished signs with allegedly antisemitic messages. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-13277047/pro-Palestine-protesters-march-London-Al-Quds-Day-Israel-supporters-counter-rally.html

That has its own topic. Also from Guterras today. I renew my call for the unconditional release of all hostages still held by Hamas & other groups. I have met with many of the family members of those being held captive & even former hostages themselves. I carry their anguish, uncertainty & deep pain with me every day. https://twitter.com/antonioguterres/status/1776246215794942159 Surely you would like to see all the hostages released unconditionally right? -
Yes I read it all and what can be concluded is that you have different standards for credible quotes from people. One one side a journalist with no extra knowledge of the incident that anyone else and you happily quote his opinion. Yet the former UK Attorney General who is also a lawyer you and discard her opinion because she was asked to leave Gov.

A reminder of who Hamas are and why the IDF are in Gaza because of Oct 7th and the hostages still there. O Allah, destroy the Americans and their supporters. O Allah, count them one by one, and kill them all, without leaving a single one. Hamas Official Sheikh Hamad Al-Regeb Refers To Jews As 'Brothers Of Apes And Pigs' During A Rafah Friday Sermon, Prays For Annihilation Of Polytheists And Atheists, Adds: 'Oh Allah, Enable Us To Get To The Necks Of The Jews' Hamas Gaza leader Yehya Sinwar shouts: “We will tear down the border and we will tear out their hearts from their bodies. Attack every Jew on the globe by way of slaughter, killing' . -
Initial findings from IDF "Following a misidentification by the forces, the forces targeted the three WCK [World Central Kitchen] vehicles based on the misclassification of the event and misidentification of the vehicles as having Hamas operatives inside them, with the resulting strike leading to the deaths of seven innocent humanitarian aid workers. "The strike on the aid vehicles is a grave mistake stemming from a serious failure due to a mistaken identification, errors in decision-making, and an attack contrary to the Standard Operating Procedures." The Israeli military has also dismissed two officers over drone strikes on aid workers, citing rules of engagement violations. https://news.sky.com/story/grave-mistake-idf-releases-findings-of-what-went-wrong-in-strike-that-killed-aid-workers-13108160

Here we go again with the fake numbers and percentages and this and admission from Gaza Health authority themselves. Israel-Hamas war: Gaza's morgue network has effectively collapsed - how are they recording their dead? Of the 21,703 identified fatalities whose details have been shared by the Hamas-run health ministry, 13,207 were women, children or elderly (61%). Until recently, however, the ministry had been reporting a figure of 72%. Mr al Wahaidi told Sky News that this was a "media estimate". He was not able to explain the basis for this estimate or who had produced it. https://news.sky.com/story/israel-hamas-war-health-system-collapse-in-gaza-leaves-authorities-struggling-to-count-the-dead-13107279
