Tens of thousands of Israelis protested in Tel Aviv this weekend against Netanyahu’s plan to fully occupy the Gaza strip, which even senior IDF commanders oppose. But the Israeli Prime Minister has doubled down in an extraordinary press conference, as Australia today joined the UK, France and Canada in announcing it will recognise a Palestinian state within weeks. He insisted that the media has been using ‘fake’ pictures of starving children in Gaza and also said that more journalists will now be allowed in, albeit under strict IDF supervision. Within hours of announcing this, Israel said it had killed five Al-Jazeera journalists based in Gaza City. The IDF says it has evidence that one of them, Anas al-Sharif, was a terrorist. Joining Piers Morgan to discuss this is US ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee, spokesman for Gaza Humanitarian Foundation Chapin Fay and editor-in-chief of Zeteo News Mehdi Hasan.
