Labour antisemitism reporting, USA policy context

Have stayed clear of this as very complicated, but recent story too far gone to ignore. I often think the Guardian agenda opposed to Corbyn is such that the antisemitism issue has more attention than news values would suggest. But his may just be me.

Still, latest example here link to Guardian story on Pompeo . Fit narrative of UK concern with LAbour and antisemitism. But fails to mention context of meeting about Israel and Palestine. See story in Medium. Similar problem with report in Express.

So how will this develop? Could be more pressure from Pompeo and Trump. But press reports should mention USA policy on Israel and Palestine. Another example of UK press just a bit limited to UK. Twitter could find more context.

Comment welcome if i missed another story in Guardian or Express.
