BBC and Sky News are both broadcast and available in Israel, unlike ITV and Ch4 who have chosen to show the appeal.

In my opinion they are under pressure from the Israeli government not to show it because of this fact. Or alteast things seem to point in that direction.

"Impartiality" has never stopped the BBC from airing appeals for the Gulf, Former Yugoslavia (Bosnia etc..), Sudan, Kosovo, Liberia, Darfur, Chad etc.. Its obvious they are under pressure from someone in this case not to do so.
