Did you share my misfortune in listening to this item on the BBC this morning?
Dhimmi David Miliband was in full flow as he explained how we don’t show enough respect to the Muslim world and that the modernisation afoot in Islam is not being given due recognition. Really? The bit that sickened me MOST was when Miliband got to insert the usual “There’ll never be peace until Israel and Palestinians are reconciled by the former allowing the latter to create their own little terror State” mantra, claiming that on 12 September the world was united in support of the USA. Not in the Palestinian territories, Mr Bean. They danced with joy as the Towers fell, you misrepresenting clown. Furthermore, Mr Bean then adds that he was impressed by Obama declaring that we are not at war with Islam. Fine. But that does not stop a significant section of Islam being at war with us, does it? Miliband gets the softest of rides possible in this interview and I suppose so long as he denies reality then that will continue.
The new Prez is such an inspiration. I see Obabama’s babies have been busy welcoming the hand of friendship and demonstrating peace and tolerance in New York. Not that the Beeboids cold get too excited about Islamic thugs planning to murder of Jews and shoot down planes. Not when there is an opportunity to attack the Conservatives.
Milliboy and Obama are both politically adolescent lightweights who have somehow been promoted well above their abilities.
Milliband and Obama, weak,naive useful idiots and very dangerous.
Yes I did listen, and I despair.
That clip from Obama “All too often our government has made decisions based on fear rather than foresight…” Without realising that he’s described exactly what he’s doing himself.
Miliband desperately struggles to smooth-talk his way into appeasing everyone but manages to offend everyone instead. It seems the government has taken the ‘grievance’ argument at face value and have accepted that throwing Israel to the wolves will solve their war on terror problem.
The only one who was just beginning to realise that there was a bit more to it than that was Hazel Blears, but the wolves have got her already.
He was given an easy ride on Today, but it’s the consensus, innit.
Hi DV, at the end of the piece one sees where BBC bias comes into it. BBC stooges (sorry, ‘interviewers’) never seem to ask obvious questions like “If we dont show enough respect for the Muslim world, why do Muslims have complete religious freedom in the West but Christians can rarely practice their faith in the Muslim world and are being killed in their hundreds and thousands?”
Again though, if someone hadn’t got to your final sentence, a casual reader would have thought you were objecting to views like this being expressed on the BBC not the way BBC acts as a platform for these type of views but a hostile opponent to others.
Just switched on R4 – Woman’s Hour – some silly overpaid Beeboid woman interviewing a terrorist – all nice and cosy in the studio. A female Tamil tiger. Soft questions such as “how important were woman to the Tamil cause”.
What she should have asked was: did you barbaric scum enjoy killing those thousands of civilians? Or are you proud of inventing modern suicide bombing.
Will there be a representative voice of the victims of these barbarians? Will BBC mention the cause of the 6000 brave Sri Lankan soldiers killed putting the Tamil Tigers out of their misery?
Beeboids love terrorists and piss on the graves of victims. And we poor suckers have to pay for this abomination.
The starting point for the discussion with Miliband was that Obama is correct and that we should be more like him. That of course is the BBC’s default position whenever The One is discussed. And as hippiepooter says, the oft-stated platitudes about us needing to understand Muslims better are never challenged by the PC cultural cringers at the BBC.
For dhimmi BBC: here’s one dhimmi D. Miliband did earlier-
‘sheikyermami.com’ (23 Nov 08):
“UK Useful Idiot Watch: Meet David Milliband, Foreign Secretary:
“Islam is an enemy towards no one and a friend towards all. Islam is a creed of peace…”
Brown-nosing expert Miliband:
* “Born in London, David Miliband is the elder son of Polish-born Marion Kozak and the late Belgian-born Marxist theoretician Ralph Miliband. (A son of a commie who became a labour hack? No surprises here…/ed)
“As Foreign Secretary Milliband has pleaded for Turkish entry to the European Community .
“Abject groveling and embarrassing Dhimmitude on display: Miliband offers Apologies to Muslims for Invading Iraq, Grovels Even Further by Claiming “]’Islam is a Creed of Peace and an Enemy to no one’…..
* Islam is an ideology of perpetual warfare against unbelievers and the enemy of all peoples…
Bukhari:V9B84N59 “Allah’s Apostle said, ‘I have been ordered to fight the people till they say: “None has the right to be worshipped but Allah.” Whoever says this will save his property and his life from me.’”
(‘sheikyermami.com’ Nov 23 08.)
nrg,
Agreed. And I heard the flip side of it on the World Service, I think on The World Today. An agitated BBC hack with a bee in his bonnet was firing questions in a most insulting fashion at a Sri Lankan government spokesman. “War crimes” allegations (not those of the terrorists) were unsurprisingly part of this “interview.”
It’s been said before on this blog but it warrants mentioning again:
The BBC never met a terrorist it didn’t like.
nrg 10:29
Don’t suppose the Beeboid asked the Tamil Tiger why they had been using girls as young as 12 as terrorists ? I would have thought that an obvious question for “Woman’s Hour “.
GeorgeR 12:44
Any reference to Miliband’s Jewishness ?
That always seems to be played down by muslims, dhimmis and the BBC.
Now, if he were anti-muslim……
Bryan /Too True
I heard that interview on world service as well. It was pretty disgraceful. The Sri Lankan kept his cool, and the interviewer severely damaged his own case with aggression like that.
The labour governement always comes out with this sort of empty bullshit whenever they need muslim support , there will be more of this between now and the the 4th of June.
President Bush also said at the UN in 2006:
“.the United States respects you. We respect your country. We admire your rich history, your vibrant culture and your many contributions to civilisation. You deserve an opportunity to determine your own future, an economy that rewards your intelligence and your talents, and a society that allows you to fulfill your tremendous potential.
“The greatest obstacle to this future is that your rulers have chosen to deny you liberty and to use your nation’s resources to fund terrorism and fuel extremism and pursue nuclear weapons.”
“Despite what the regime tells you, we have no objection to Iran’s pursuit of a truly peaceful nuclear power program. We’re working toward a diplomatic solution to this crisis. And as we do, we look to the day when you can live in freedom, and America and Iran can be good friends and close partners in the cause of peace”Of course, nobody likes to admit that. And shock, horror, on September 13, 2001, while I could still step outside of my home and see the smoke from the burning rubble of the World Trade Center, Bush said this:
I urge – I know I don’t need to tell you all this -but our nation must be mindful
that there are thousands of Arab-Americans who live in New York City
who love their flag just as much as the three of us do.
And we must be mindful that as we seek to win the war
that we treat Arab-Americans and Muslims with the respect they deserve.
I know that is your attitudes as well. Certainly the attitude of this government,
that we should not hold one who is a Muslim responsible for an act of terror.
We will hold those who are responsible for the terrorist acts accountable and those who harbor them.”
As soon as we hit back, though, all those sympathetic Muslim scholars decided we were at war with Islam.
It’s really pathetic that not only does the BBC deny this and pretend that it’s a novel concept for the new President to say we’re not at war with Islam, but that someone so high up in the Government can act as if The Obamessiah’s remarks are somehow refreshing and new. Did anybody at the BBC remind Milliband of Bush’s words? No? How many people here were even aware of what he said on September 13, never mind at the UN in 2006?
Obama is a tosser. miliband is a twat.
D.Miliband, G. Brown, the Labour government and the BBC all want Britain to be more rapidly Islamized through the access of 75 million Muslim Turks into the E.U. (Something to be borne in mind at 4 June E.U. elections.)
The near future is here:
1.)’Muslim demographics’ Youtube (7 min:30 sec video clip);
2.) Mark Steyn, ‘The End of Europe’ Youtube (5 video clips).
Milibrand is right!!!
We must support the Mohammedan Modernizers struggling to drag their religion from the 8th Century into the 13th Century.

Yes, and isn’t that precisely the point – that the BBC hack has a “case,” when he should be impartial.
I sometimes think we should go on a “name and shame” campaign re these hacks, pinpointing the worst examples of their bias.
I’d start with Jeremy Bowen yelling “war crimes” at Israel, and only Israel, at the beginning of the
war with Hezbollah.
Too true the old Bryan,
The Beeboid’s ‘case’ is pretending to ‘speak for the listener.’ The problem is, which listener ? Himself usually. Or herself.
Interestingly, on Wednesday Sarah Montague interviewed Sir Michael Lyons and she did make several rude interruptions. I had to ask myself if it was as annoying on the rare occasions when when she really does ‘speak for the listener’ as it is most of the time with her normal BBC-agenda-driven interruptions and rudenesses.
It’s annoying both ways, but definitely worse in the latter situation than the former.
You have to ask yourself how upsetting it would be if there was a massive sea change, and the pendulum swung the other way. What if the bias was on the other foot? But it’s not going to happen, is it?

Too true the old Bryan..
..Thanks for the chuckle
(I learnt the dot separation trick from you.)
Good that you ask the question. I have no doubt that there are very few BBC people indeed who question themselves in that fashion. It’s a matter of being prepared to look at oneself, and that ain’t easy to do.
That said, it would be preferable if the BBC were biased in favour of the good and constructive rather than the bad and destructive. BBC hacks are adolescents in endless rebellious phase.
Milliband and Barry Hussein spout their pro Muslim Marxist claptrap – meanwhile, the home of Democracy burns with the peace of islam.
Also note the BBC running a story about Israel tourist adverts “wiping Palestine off the map” when we all know they would never run a story about West Bank/Gaza children being given maps with no Israel on them.
sick of it,
100% correct. Here’s a link to a comment I made on this blog on Claire Bolderson’s bias on that very subject:
Oh, I see that Blogger wont let me post a Haloscan link, I think. So here’s what I wrote:
Speaking of maps of the Middle East, they have an awful programme on the World Service on Sundays called Over to You, which purports to let people have their say about the BBC. It would be better named Over to Us to put one over on You.
They had that supreme anti-Israel propagandist, Claire Bolderson, on a year or two back. She’d apparently found a map in an Israeli school textbook that portrayed Israel without naming Palestine and used this as the basis for talking a whole lot of ignorant crap about what Israel schoolchildren do and don’t think about the Palestinians. Naturally she ignored the fact (or didn’t know) that there are different kinds of maps and that not all maps will or should show the Palestinian areas. She also ignored the fact (or didn’t know) that the Palestinians are the ones who deliberately excise the name Israel from maps produced of the area between the Jordan River and the sea and that they teach their children to hate the Jews.
This was such an extraordinary turning of reality on its head that I’m pretty sure it was intentional rather than ignorant. And since this was on Over to You I was wondering when the listeners would come into the picture.
Then they read out an e-mail from someone who had presumably read Bolderson’s article on the subject on the website and praised Bolderson for enlightening him about the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Thus the crap was neatly parcelled up and delivered to an unsuspecting public.
So anyone who doubts the title of this website, believe it. The BBC is biased to the hilt in many areas. And it is anti-Israel and many of its staff are anti-Semitic. Ain’t a single shadow of a doubt about that.
Bryan | 20.02.09 – 2:42 pm.
.And here’s the article she wrote at the time, pretending to be even-handed and obviously unaware that her bias is so transparent:
Bolderson’s Biased Chorus
Another Mr Bean classic: “Palestinian statelessness is the biggest recruiting sergeant for Islamic extremism around the world”
Yea right David – The Muslim Brotherhood in 1938 was very concerned about Palestinian statelessness …. not …
By the way Adele Balasingham (Australian white women who married Anton Balasingham) trained 10 year old girls to become suicide bombers and killers (theres even video footage of this).
She lives happily in London off money tainted in blood spilled in Sri Lanka (her husband also lived happily in London till his death -he drank a lot). Anton a “discriminated” Tamil from Sri Lanka was lucky enough to get a job in Sri Lanka’s HC in London before he nipped out one morning said he was being “genocided” in SL and hey presto get a new passport. He then married Adele and got Australian dual! Very lucky to be a discriminated Tamil in SL.
Also the worlds number one reliable unbiased non-racist media once again tells us the absolute truth on time, the LTTE propaganda site TamilNet (which the BBC loves to quote word for word with no question asked about credibility and is very useful source to attack Sri Lanka with) finally admits their stupid mass murdering leader is dead.
Ironically it comes after another chat with KP (Interpol wanted fraudster, thief, money-launder and weapons smuggler) who just last week said their dear leader was alive, even though SL Media showed the leaders body. Now KP admits he’s dead. Of course BBC did not accept the death till KP confirmed it.
Nice to see Milliband is clowning around else where. He has become a household name in SL these days. Even in the remotest villages in Sri Lanka the local idiot is now referred to as a Milliband. Also he holds the honour of being the only foreigner/foreign official to have an effigy of himself slapped together in 5 minutes, set a light and then tossed into his respective Embassy, as happened in Colombo last week.
Someone mentioned above an interview between SL Government representative and BBC World –is this on youtube?
Sunil Wickramaratne,
No, it was on the World Service radio. I’m not sure how to access it again, but I think it was on “The World Today.” You could search the World Service website for it.
"'Muslim demographics' Youtube (7 min:30 sec video clip)" (George R)
See a debunk of this faked video (although funny, especially the 8.1 children/woman fertility rate of Muslims in France) in Tiny Frog, Muslim Demographics, 2009-05-03, and Duncan Macleod, Muslim Demographics on YouTube Abuse of Statistics, 2009-05-11.
