LIES, DAMNED LIES AND BBC STATISTICS

This is a great catch by Pounce that I think deserves much greater prominence.

“The BBC, it’s insipid hatred of Israel, arms exporters and just a little extra added to the story.
So has anybody seen that bBC revised coverage of that parliamentary report on weapons sales to Israel and Sri-lanka while omitting the real gist of the report on HMG not knowing that brits were buying weapons from the Ukraine and selling them to …Sri Lanka.Have a look at that chart of arms sales they have posted up . Why guess who it has in 4th place. Why its Israel. How dare the the jews sell more weapons than the UK.. and then the BBC quotes they gleaned that info from the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute.The thing is I read and use their website all the time and knew something wasn’t right. So I had a look. Well guess what Israel isn’t the 4th largest seller of weapons in the world rather it comes in 11th place after China. A country which the bBC says doesn’t inform the world what its sold. Don’t believe me here is the Link for the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute web site on the top 50 arms exporters or importers. Just click the button you wish Web or ExcelAnd if you can’t be asked here is a screen dump of what I downloaded onto Excel.The bBC it’s insipid hatred of Israel, arms exporters and just a little extra added to the story
