    EGYPT.

    ‘Jihadwatch’:-

    ‘”Arab Spring’ democracy on the march:
    Morsi grants himself sweeping new powers.”

    http://www.jihadwatch.org/2012/11/arab-spring-democracy-on-the-march-morsi-grants-himself-sweeping-new-powers.html

    Gullible INBBC’s Cairo Bureau seems surprised.

      Yes, this is BBC anti-shale gas propaganda from the BBC and the likes of HARRABIN.

      Harrabin and co use the BBC for blatant anti-shale gas propaganda, with online BBC pages and licence payers’ money given over to anonymous campaigners who BBC agrees with.
      Harrabin and BBC continue to act like this because they are confident that they are politically untouchable.

    BBC on gang warfare: don’t mention mass immigration.

    “The gang war being waged on Britain’s streets”

    (3 min video)

    http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-20451843

    BBC makes no link between gang wars in U.K, and mass immigration into the U.K.

      Yes also it is a bit like the BBC’S favourite economist Johnathan Portes of the NIESR. He can always be relied on to push the yarns the BBC wants.

      The link is that one Johnathan Portes is the man who recommended to New Labour that they relax the immigration laws as he was sure not many would come. How did that work out?

    Amazingly, the BBC simply seems to love ’em.

    SYRIA.

    INBBC (as with much of West’s political class) sides with Syrian opposition.

    But what INBBC omits, and learning nothing from Libya and Egypt:-

    “Syria: Rebels flying black flag of jihad seize artillery base.”

    [Excerpt]:-
    “Once Assad is gone, with American aid to those rebels deemed pro-American (who knows by what calculus), this materiel will be used against Israel. ‘Rebels flying black Islamist flag seize artillery base in Syria’s Deir al Zour province,’ by David Enders .

    http://www.jihadwatch.org/2012/11/syria-rebels-flying-black-flag-of-jihad-seize-artillery-base.html

    INBBC’s sanitised report by Jim Muir (without black flags) on same incident:

    Last time the PM stood up for the country, with its approval, the BBC’s Paul Mason called it ‘UK throws toys out of the pram’.

    One wonders what Lord Hall Hall’s propaganda team will manage this time?

    I very seldom compliment the BBC or the today programme. But to be totally fair, you should hear them tearing apart this horrible woman who took some foster kids away from a UKIP couple – I wanted to cheer!
