This headline sums up everything wrong with the bbc’s agenda.
The aggressor is always the victim somehow.
How can they get away with this type of reporting.
This irresponsible journalism is seen by many gullible people (yoof) who take the headlines at face value, never bother to read the facts, then go on to join protests that they don’t even know what the protest is about.
It really is worrying and actually getting worse by the day.
They do need to be reigned in somehow. Only a mass non payment of the license tax would be the way.
I think the time has come to start some kind of movement to get this underway.
Any ideas?
Davy,
Unlike the uk government the Israelies know how to defend their country. I’m sure they monitor blogs like this. Perhaps they can deal with al Beeb if it is on their enemy list.
A ‘B’ grade for the report with a silver star for improvement from the original travesty. The pattern of an original offensive BBC headline softened later for posterity is so common it seems editorial policy rather than accident.
1) Although the replacement headline focusses on the policewoman it is ten sentences/paragraphs before they talk about her or even mention her name. The pyramid concept of journalistic prose says most people don’t read the whole article. The further down the article the less important is the information and the less likely to be read.
2) The pyramid concept says the most important part of the article after the headline is the leading paragraph. In this case that Israel shot three Palestinians AFTER a deadly KNIFE attack. This reinforces the Palestinian agenda that Israel is systematically targeting Palestinians for execution (the BBC would not never call them terrorists) and can be read that this was an extrajudicial killing. BTW Mahmud Abbas’s Fatah organisation has already condemned the death of the three attackers as a war crime.
The facts are different the armed attacker was shot while he was attacking but unfortunately not in time to save Hadas Malka, who died later of her wounds. There was no issue of an assailant who had laid down weapons and surrendered or a disputed judgement call about the threat. A reader would need to reach halfway down the article to be informed that one of the attackers was armed with a gun.
3) The lead graphic used to illustrate is an armed, solemn soldier further reinforcing the armed occupation angle rather than a picture of the dead police officer or a picture of medics removing the body, etc. which would be an image more sympathetic to Israel.
4) Even the caption to the photograph is misleading. ‘HEAVILY armed police patrolled the attack area’. Firstly the officer in the photograph is not heavily armed. She is carrying an M16 short rifle and wearing a flack jacket. That is standard for female Border Patrol officers. She is simply armed. Secondly it is unclear from the BBC wording whether the patrol was before or after the attack. Surely it is not news that police are rushed to an area following an attack?
This photograph has been slightly lightened from the original to make her weapons easier to identify.
5) Although unusually for the BBC they mentioned forty-two Israelis have been killed in knife, gun and car-ramming attacks they not surprisingly did not say that almost all have gone unreported by the BBC.
6)There is the standard BBC ‘most of them attackers, ISRAEL SAYS‘ meme which implies that Israel could be lying but as always the BBC Israel based reporters do not attempt to verify whether this claim is true or false. As a result of the ongoing terrorism many of these attacks are recorded by cameras permanently in place and/or there are multiple eye witnesses. Checking on this is surely Journalism 101.
8) ‘Accounts differed as to the names and places of residence of the three attackers.’ I guess we will have to wait until, if ever, the BBC notes that the attackers were identified by the Shin Bet internal security agency as Bra’a Salah and Asama Atta, both born in 1998, and Adel Ankush, born the following year, from Deir Abu-Mashal. Various family members and neighbours have already been interviewed.
9) Finally they end with ‘Israel says Palestinian incitement has fuelled the attacks. The Palestinian leadership has blamed frustration rooted in decades of Israeli occupation.’ Why hasn’t the BBC investigated the reported incitement or what part of frustration due to Israeli (or any other) occupation can be blamed for terrorist attacks on British soil?
Generally the Israelis are good looking, yes, probably due to the mixture of Levantine and central European blood – but I recall someone saying the Israelis tend to show the pretty ones off in PR and communications to garner sympathy – this may or may not be true.
“Three Irishmen killed after deadly stabbing in Belfast.” Three Muslims killed after deadly stabbing in London.”
The BBC has been infested for many years now with Trotskyist, Socialist Worker, Fifth Columnist,virulent anti Israel editors , sub editors, researchers and even presenters and reporters. So the headline about the collateral damage in Jerusalem did not surprise me at all. It’s par for the BBC.
Message to our left loving liberal Prime Minister. Do something about the BBC bias. You don’t need to stamp out free journalism, just draw attention to its lies and cut public funding
US President Donald Trump’s son, Donald Trump Jr., tweeted: “You mean after they stabbed a female Israeli police officer to death… right? This is as close to being misleading as possible.”
“Need a new term for this nonsense. Sort of the opposite of victim blaming. How about Culprit Coddling? Maybe Criminal Cozying? Thoughts???”
No intention to mislead – yeah, right! Anti-semite weasels!
We regret any offence – yeah right! Anti-semite weasels!

My issues with article now headlined Israeli policewoman stabbed to death in Jerusalem:

The government has the power to change the BBC without it appearing as political interference.
It can be done under the guise of modernisation.

Tell the BBC it has a year to do one of two things
#1 scrap the TV licence and take advertising
#2 Encryption of its output and anyone who wants the BBC can pay with subscription/pay per view
failure to do either results in the “For Sale” signs going up on the BBC

It’s ok, the BBC also likes to protect those who do harm and incite those seeking to kick off closer to home too…
… for ‘balance’.
Wonder who they will be wheeling out next to fan the flames… Jones? McDonnell? The now resurrected Lady Di?
