NEVER FORGET?

Today is the 8th Anniversary of 7/7, the day the Jihad came to visit London and take 52 innocent lives. I note the BBC has nothing up to mark this sad anniversary. I suppose it is too busy marking Ramadan to consider such? The US media always marks 9/11, but our State Broadcaster has other priorities….

    US: “Never Forget!”
    BBC: “Best Forgotten, OK?” Never offend Muslim opinion by reminding them what was done in their name.

    Instead it’s wasted our money on complete and utter Left-wing garbage like “The Muslim Premier League”, something which doesn’t actually exist but is yet another odious grovel to a minority Religion, Islam.

    You’d think they’d mention it especially with the terror connected Abu Qatada being sent off:

    I’ve searched high and low, in the London page I did mange to find the important news that they’ll be a blue plaque unveiled to mark the office that Eric Sykes shared with Spike Milligan:

      Yes, the deportation of Qatada on what is 7/7, is avoided by INBBC.

      Jaw dropping, isn’t it? The anniversary of terrorist mass murder in London, the very kind barbarism that was called for by the Islamic preacher being deported on the same day after a decade’s worth of confused efforts…and they don’t bother to mention the significance of this confluence.

      Good news for Tories, bad news for Islam.

      A two-for-one reason to look the other way.

    This is both sad, and a disgrace…

    Two years ago, on the sixth anniversary of the 7/7 bombings in London, we posed the question, “Why are we already forgetting?” This year, the Evening Standard reported how shamefully, the memorial to the victims of the terrorist attack was falling into disrepair.

    Could you imagine such a thing happening to the 9/11 memorial in the United States? The scale of the latter, for a start, is tremendous. It truly lends to the memory of America’s deceased. But the 7/7 memorial, tucked away in a corner of London’s sprawling Hyde Park, is now succumbing to rust and lack of care.

    …and this…amen…

    The British establishment has long ceased to represent the voting public, instead caving to special interests, even when they are the interests of those who would seek to undermine us. The fact that organisations like Unite Against Fascism, which does nothing of the sort, enjoy the support of the British Prime Minister, is symptomatic of a wider internal disarray in Britain.

    ‘The British Establishment’ – especially the damn BBC!

    I found one new article about a memorial ceremony. It’s currently the second-most important feature on the England page, below an article about footballers in Cornwall held over a ‘sex attack’. That’s BBC priorities for you.

      Hi David that wasn’t there earlier, or maybe I get a different version. They updated at 14:40 and I posted at 14:58 so either it’s a classic stealth update or I was seeing other pages (currently in Mexico)

        Span, if this is the first appearance of that article, it’s almost as pathetic as ignoring 7/7 entirely. It’s only second to a tedious sexual assault story, and not worthy of even being on the main UK page, never mind the BBC News home page? Don’t want your international audience to be offended, BBC?

        Oh, wait, there was one mention of it on the BBC Local live feed. Whew! Your license fee hard at work.

      From the BBC articles it seems to be a mystery to the BBC why those suicide bombers murdered, especially mass-murdered.

      Not really much of a news organisation is it, if it is so wilfully blind to the issues involved it attempts to mislead people into thinking this was some random event?

      ‘Murder’ is another word the BBC don’t like to use in these circumstances, by the way.

    The BBC doesn’t like to pointlessly stir ethnic tensions by reopening old wounds.

    Well, unless….

    Weird how defenders of the indefensible are silent on this thread, yet chose to criticize people’s opinions on others, having nothing to do with BBC bias. Why, it’s almost as if they’re not here to defend the BBC at all, but are actually intent on fighting with people whose opinions they don’t like.

      Exactly. Isn’t it similar to the totalitarian minded UAF, SWP etc, who refuse to debate because they have no coherent arguments, and can’t accept any forum which allows the voicing of opinions they disagree with?
