Tom Fletcher and the United Nations are entitled to their frustration with the IDF. Their missions do not exactly align. Both sides are also operating in an environment with no real historical precedents and are learning as they go. But Amanpour never engaged with the misaligned institutional imperatives.
In a Channel 4 Dispatches (UK) anti-Israel documentary whose 49-minute running time references Hamas only once, glosses over the Oct. 7 massacre in its first two minutes, sources its video footage to Hamas sympathisers and platforms individuals with a history of activism and close rapport with Hamas operatives - without disclosing either - what, then, are the film's producers really supporting?

One pilot stabbed another on a FlyDubai flight en route to Tel Aviv, resulting in the stabbed pilot sending distress and hijacking signals.
