| Tuesday 1 June 2010 at 10.30pm on BBC Two Presented by Kirsty Wark Israel is used to facing the opprobrium of the international community, but might internal forces bring the Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu down as the Gaza boat affair continues to reverberate? Ten people died and 30 were wounded when Israeli troops boarded a flotilla of ships carrying aid for Gaza. It was the ninth attempt since 2008 to break an Israeli blockade of the strip by sea, but the first that has resulted in bloodshed. Mr Netanyahu has said that the loss of life was "regrettable". Tim Whewell is in Jerusalem to bring us the latest on the story as it develops. Our Diplomatic editor Mark Urban will be considering Mr Netanyahu's position and asking what President Barack Obama - whose much anticipated meeting with the Israeli PM tomorrow has now been cancelled - is going to do about it. We also hope to be hearing from people closely involved. Then we have an extraordinary film in which Sue Lloyd-Roberts gets rare access to see first hand North Korea's isolation and lack of development. Her heavily chaperoned visit to the country coincided with the extravagant annual celebrations which mark the birthday of the country's founder, Kim Il-sung - who has been dead for some 16 years but is still president and worshipped like a god. Read more about it here. And we'll be remembering the artist Louise Bourgeois, one of the most influential contemporary artists who has died at the age of 98. Her giant spiders loomed over the Turbine Hall at Tate Modern - the opening installation, a decade ago. Do join Kirsty for all that at 10.30pm on BBC Two. |
