MISSING WORDS.

It’s not what the BBC says in its reports, it often what it leaves out. For example, in this report on the Northern Ireland portal it factually reports certain changes regarding the constitution of a Victim’s Commission. Fair enough. It then blithely states concerning the members of this quango that amongst them is “Patricia MacBride, whose brother was killed by the SAS and whose father died 17 months after being shot by loyalists.” It fails to explain that Patricia MacBrides’ brother was killed by the SAS because he was an IRA terrorist stopped before he could carry out a bombing and that her father was murdered by loyalist terrorists. The BBC is indirectly equating the actions of the SAS to those of the IRA, and it is also besmirching the reputation of law abiding loyalists by failing to make it clear that it was loyalist terror gangs that murdered Patricia McBrides father. This is the shameful equivocation at which the BBC excels. Just one sentence with missing words.

    Yet more evidence of sly deliberate bias by omission.

    An impartial article would have balanced things by countering with one or two (and there were many) examples of innocents slaughtered by the IRA.

    Contemptible stuff from the BBC.

    I wonder whether the IRA killers paid the Telly-tax? And whether the Beeb sent its goons out to collect it?

    Big complaint in Northern Ireland is that the TV Licence chappies rigourously enforce in the “Prod” areas while not in the “Nationalist” areas.

    Apparently too difficult (and expensive!) to show the number of TV licence holders by postcode – at least in Northern Ireland.

    How about the rest of the UK? Anyone ever tried?

    Spot the missing words in the opening paragraph of this Al-BBC report from Beirut…..

    “Hezbollah takes over west Beirut

    Gunmen from the Shia militant group Hezbollah have seized most of western Beirut, driving out supporters of the Western-backed government.”

    Notice Al-BBc go out of their way to mention the “Western-backed government” so that Leftoids will think “oh , yeah backed by Bush & Israel” BUT Al-Beeb don’t put “the Iranian-backed Shia militant group” when describing Hebollah. This is done so as to make the Hezbo scum look like the victims here. Al-Beeb – never met a terrorist they didn’t like.
