Truck ‘driven at’ runway during Panetta’s Afghan visit
A member of Nato forces in Afghanistan has been injured in an incident involving a vehicle during a visit by US defence secretary Leon Panetta. A pick-up truck was driven onto a runway of the main British base in the southern province of Helmand, Camp Bastion, before it burst into flames. The Afghan driver of the truck suffered burns and has been arrested…. The US defence secretary was in Helmand to address US troops, as fears mount that they could be the target of a backlash against foreign forces.
It’s now almost 5 days since that American soldier went on a rampage and everyday the bBC has tried to push the view that the Afghans are really upset. Really? How many protests have we seen: 1 by a load of student yesterday ,which to anybody in the know is simply the work of the Taliban and their ilk who simply ring up for a rent a mob to parade for the bBC cameras. Which is why yesterday the Islamic idiots burnt a cross in which to make their point (didn’t see any Christians attack anybody for that, or even have the bBC mention it. But burn a book, well the shit hits the fan at Bush House)
But every day now the bbC have ended with:
The US defence secretary was in Helmand to address US troops, as fears mount that they could be the target of a backlash against foreign forces.
It’s like the bBC are telling the Taliban what to do next in which to be able to dictate the course of events.
Ah yes the Taliban did mount a lethal attack in protest to those killings by attacking a Afghan government committee where the 3 terrorists were shot dead for the loss of one afghan soldier. But the bbC didn’t explain how afghans killing afghans amounts to a protest against..America.
In fact if anything its been relatively quiet in Afghanistan, which is why the bBC is trying to equate the smallest incidents as religious payback for the murders of 16 Afghans.
The bBC, the traitors in our Midst.
The bBC, the propaganda arm for Islamic terrorists.
Nigeria kidnap ‘mastermind’ dies in police custody
The man suspected of planning the kidnapping of a Briton and an Italian man in Nigeria has died in police custody, secret police say.The State Security Service said Abu Mohammed had died of gunshot wounds sustained when he was captured…. Abu Mohammed was captured along with five other suspects a day before last Thursday’s failed attempt to rescue the two captives, police told a briefing in the capital, Abuja
‘Swollen faces’
Five men detained at the same time as Abu Mohammed were paraded in front of journalists at the news briefing.The BBC’s Muhammed Abba, who was at the briefing, says the men had swollen faces.
So 5 terrorists arrested in the house where 2 hostages were kept hostage and murdered in cold blood and the bBC spends more time informing the reader about how these religious thugs had swollen faces. How many times have you heard the bBC report on how people held by Islamic terrorists have received a good kicking.. why that would be never. But harm a hair on a Islamic terrorist and there’s allah to pay over at the bBC.
The bBC, the traitors in our Midst.
Islam Not BBC (INBBC) gets appropriate reference here:
“Admitting Censorship due to Islamist Intimidation”
http://www.danielpipes.org/blog/2006/04/media-admits-censorship-due-to-islamist
One has to wonder, with all the resources that the BBC has across the world, why it is that English newspapers like the Times and Daily Mail are able to run stories that so far don’t appear on the BBC landscape.
Could it be because it puts Muslims and Islam in a bad light that the BBC finds some justification, like not in the public interest, to run it?
Fact is, as Mark Thompson already admitted in different words, it’s not in the BBC interest, because the intimidation they feel from Muslim extremism achieved just what it was supposed to. It highlights the cowards that the BBC truly are, not only humiliated to ‘look the other way’ as far as this barbaric mentality is applied, but actually try to present it as ‘beneficial to our society.
Here’s one story from today in the Mail and you can see from the headlines there’s no concealing what it is about;
Moroccans demand change to Islamic penal code after girl, 16, kills herself because judge forced her to marry her RAPIST
And another shown by Islam versus Europe from an article in the Times where a man convicted with four others yesterday for his role in subjecting two girls, aged 15 and 16, to a weekend of degrading sexual attacks. The report makes the point that It’s interesting that the Times describes the perpetrators as “Muslim” men in its headline. Normally it uses the euphemism “Asian”.
Neither story appears on the BBC website, and I have to wonder first whether they will, and second, if they are – will they reference the Muslim or Islamic connection so vividly.
I’ll track it for the next few days. I’m willing to bet that if they eventually cover them, this element will be downplayed. They’re probably figuring out how to word it right now, which is why the other media can always beat them to publish.
Teddy Bear,
“One has to wonder, with all the resources that the BBC has across the world, why it is that English newspapers like the Times and Daily Mail are able to run stories that so far don’t appear on the BBC landscape.”
I have one question.
Do you believe everything you read in the Daily Mail?
You’re supposed to be working, Dez, not trolling on your employer’s computer. Things quiet on the night shift?
Dez,
In the same vein as your question to Teddy Bear, do you believe everyhing you hear on the BBC?
Dez,
I should have added a warning – Be careful how you answer the question. Whichever way you answer will be held against you.
Secondly, in true BBC fashion, if you don’t reply, it will be assumed your answer is in the affirmative and you really DO believe everything the BBC tells you.
Over to you.
I know you try your best to appear clever Dez, but in the context of what’s being discussed here, whether I believe everything I read in the Daily Mail or not is completely irrelevant.
What is relevant is whether THIS story is true and factual, and why the BBC has delayed or omitted covering it.
I see today they covered the Daily Mail story, so I guess that means for you that THIS MAKES IT NOW TRUE, although just as I predicted, they omitted all reference to Islamic penal code being behind this evil and despicable event.
By the BBC’s own account Witnesses say her husband became so outraged when she drank the poison he dragged her down the street by her hair – and she died shortly afterwards.
If you could simply be dismissed as a poor thinker, you would still be somewhat perturbed as to why the BBC should protect a faith that breeds this kind of mentality. But since you follow a particular agenda, and may well be one of the brainwashed followers of this repressive belief system, I don’t expect it to give you cause for thought.
By the way, the second story about the (probable friends of yours) men whp subjected the 2 young girls to a weekend of sexual attacks is still not covered by the BBC. Does that mean that it didn;t really happen?
Compare and contrast the word choice and tone between teh blurbs from the new Andrew Neil special about the Human Rights Laws of the EU, and his feature from 2010 on the Tea Party.
“Rights Gone Wrong”
Anger over votes for prisoners and the release of Abu Qatada shows just what a toxic issue human rights law has become. In this provocative film, Andrew Neil travels to Europe and across Britain to find out why Britain follows these laws and asks can anything be done to restore our faith in them?a
“Tea Party America”
The fastest-growing political movement in the US today is the so-called Tea Party – a right-wing grassroots revolt with hundreds of thousands of supporters and local branches all over the country. Now as the US prepares to vote in crucial mid-term elections, political journalist Andrew Neil is off on a whistle-stop tour of the country to find out what is behind it and why it is spreading like wildfire. The Tea Party wants to change America – but their first target is the Republican Party.
Urged on by the likes of Fox News’ most prominent host, Glenn Beck, and the Tea Party darling Sarah Palin, they are trying to replace established Republican politicians with Tea Party candidates. But as Andrew Neil discovers, their real target is the man in the White House. They believe Obama is an out-and-out socialist and the Federal Government well on the way to what they see as tyranny. This extraordinary eruption of anger is certainly changing the face of America.
The report which questions the value and worth of EU Human Rights laws is “provocative”, and the blurb is written from the point of view that faith in it ought to be restored, while the report which “investigates” the Tea Party is represented as hard-hitting journalism, getting to the facts, calling out a competing media outlet for being responsible, and uses the most extreme language of the movement to represent it. It’s pretty obvious which side of each issue BBC editors are on.
David,
“Rights Gone Wrong”
“…can anything be done to restore our faith in them?” clearly supposes that ‘The British’ have lost faith in Human Rights Laws. Where or when does it suggest they should be restored?
Dez, I would have thought that “…can anything be done to restore our faith in them?” was a bit of a clue. It presupposes of course that most of us had any faith in them in the first place.
5dead this morning doing a skit about how children are leaving school unable to read or write, the had the chief inspector of schools on the line. “what about all the libraries closing?” asks Burden. “What about social media, is that to blame?” says gameshow. So the phone-in should be jolly good fun this morning, going all around the bushes as usual and missing the huge grey animal with the large tusks in the middle.
Hmmf. Just seen a ‘Literacy Tzar’ on the Beeb bemoaning that 33% of children did not achieve average marks. Thank Allah he’s not the ‘Numeracy Tzar!’
Not picked up by the Beeboid interviewing of course.

BBC 5 Live, that awkward mix of sport and leftie opinion.
No surprise that it is on this BBC platform that we hear calls for the England cricket team to boycott matches against Sri Lanka.
Lets just remind ourselves about the terrorist group the Tamil Tigers…
http://www.time.com/time/world/article/0,8599,1869501,00.html
Time magazine 2009
‘The Tamil Tigers of Sri Lanka are undoubtedly one of the most organized, effective and brutal terrorist groups in the world. They invented the suicide vest and, according to the FBI, are the only terrorist group to have assassinated two world leaders. The rebels, based in northern and eastern Sri Lanka, have been waging a violent offensive against the central government on and off for more than 20 years…. but it’s a safe bet that, regardless of territory lost or possibly dwindling ranks, the guerillas will not give up their fight willingly’
