      The bbc is sponsored by Gates, they will never do an unfavourable report on him.

    Israel’s military received orders to shell Israeli homes and even their own bases as they were overwhelmed by Hamas militants on October 7. How many Israeli citizens said to have been “burned alive” were actually killed by friendly fire?

    If it transpires that bodies of either side are lying in the streets of London on the eleventh the least I would expect is the immediate resignation of Rowley… as not fit for purpose and endangering life as a minimum.

    It has already cost one old man his life. But this apparently does not represent a threat, unbelievable!

    Our benighted Met Chief and Woody Allen lookalike is perplexed about the meaning of Jihad.
    It means Holy War, dummy, and once they’re done with the Jews, you’re next.

    Perhaps he (and the BBC) should read the Hamas Charter:

    Article 7: the Day of Judgment will not come until the Muslims fight and kill the Jews. “Then, the Jews will hide behind rocks and trees, and the rocks and trees will cry out: ‘O Moslem, there is a Jew hiding behind me, come and kill him.”

    Article 13: There is no negotiated settlement possible. Jihad is the only answer.

    Article 15: “The day that enemies usurp part of Muslim land, Jihad becomes the individual duty of every Muslim”. It states the history of the Crusades into Muslim lands and says the “Palestinian problem is a religious problem”.[1]

    Article 30: Calls on “writers, intellectuals, media people, orators, educators and teachers, and all the various sectors in the Arab and Islamic world” to pursue jihad.

    Article 33: calls upon Muslims worldwide to work for liberation of Palestine.

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hamas_Charter

    https://irp.fas.org/world/para/docs/880818a.htm

    Quite independently of Palestine, ceaseless, relentless Jihad is enjoined upon all muslims until the whole world is islamic, or in subservient dhimmitude to our islamic masters.

    Bowne is back on the typewriter – always amusing to read what he has to say. And none of the reasons he IS amusing are complimentary.

    Today he’s belittling the Israelies and promoting Hamas as being better:

    ‘Israel’s Defence Minister Yoav Gallant says the leader of Hamas is in his bunker not talking to anybody – he doesn’t actually know that with certainty.’

    ‘The Israeli military was not able to pick up the intelligence that Hamas was going to carry out the massacre on 7 October. So I think we need to take their claims of certain knowledge and intelligence with a quite a large pinch of salt.’

    Bit like comparing apples with oranges there Jeremy – but never mind. Lets see what he has to say about Hamas:

    ‘So even though Israel has all the heavy weaponry, the question is whether or not they can defeat the Hamas fighters who have been releasing videos of themselves running around and popping out of tunnels, and firing various kinds of anti-tank missiles at the Israeli armoured vehicles going into Gaza City.’

    I suspect many of those ‘heros’ are now dead. How many tanks did they destroy Jeremy ?. They claim 6 without a single picture of one.

    Hamas in Gaza city are going to get wiped out Jeremy. Deal with it. The leader of Hamas has probably fled already : I’ve noticed in Islam, the leaders don’t share this certainty that death on the battlefield brings them 72 virgins to rape.

      The attack on Israel gave them the perfect excuse to effectively shut Islam down in the UK. Close the mosques, ban halal slaughter and deport, beginning with the criminals overcrowding our prisons and everyone without documentation.

      “The first duty of government……….”

      IMO they are obliged to act on Islam and immigration – all immigration not just illegals. Not doing so is treason.

      They are afraid of Islam. The Irony! These same people are only too happy to smear us as “Islamophobic” if we dare to say one true word about it.

    Richard.
    I would like the presenters on GBN and TalkTV to ask the lefties who appear on the two channels for their definition of Far Right.
    They keep coming out with it, often as a prefix for Yobs or Hooligans, yet they are never challenged.

    I would like to hear what the likes of Schneider, Narinder, Amy, Femi, Crick and the other lefties think defines someone as Far Right.

    Will it be everybody attending the Remembrance Service at the Cenotaph, maybe all the poppy sellers, maybe everyone who voted for Brexit, maybe all Tory voters.
    Probably it is everyone who is not far left like them.
    I, along with just about everyone on here must be Far Right.

    So then, next time the usual lefties casually label anyone as Far Right I hope the presenter would ask them why they call them Far Right and for their definition of what being Far Right is.

    The story is self-explanatory : the Democrats are overwhelmingly behind the Muslims for this. Only 22 voted for her censure.

    But the interesting part is the latest description of 1,400 people including hundreds of women and children being murdered in cold-blood by terrorists is now reduced to:

    More than 1,400 Israelis were killed in the 7 October attack by Hamas.

    And of course we get:

    ‘The Hamas-run health ministry says that more than 10,300 Palestinians have since been killed in Israeli attacks.’

    Using what they told us about the hospital rocket as a reference, we can probably halve that. But the BBC will never go near that one.

    Once again there is no mention anywhere that Hamas are terrorists. The description should be included in EVERY article which the BBC rely of Hamas supplied data for anything.

    Would they have also demanded a halt to the RAF bombing German cities in response to the the Luftwaffe trying to flatten London and other cities in this Country?

    Dealing with unhinged lunatics like Hamas means normal policies are useless as they will only ever understand either being wiped out or winning. Israel stopping its purge on them can only ever lead to further atrocities by these animals.

        Not even the government of the UK, mind, but the opposition to the government of the UK!

        I’m sure as soon as they hear the British Labour Party are demanding a ceasefire, the IDF and Hamas will all put down their weapons, hug each other, and start comparing baby photos… just like in the movies.

    The Dailty Telegraph online is carrying stories about the Astra Zeneca vaccine being ‘defective ‘/ not as good – efficacious- as the other brands …

    —msybd it shows that Mark Steyn was ages ahead in showing the harm vaccines did to some people – including killing people …perhaps GBNews will take him back … and I’ll win the lottery

      An article about the reaction to comments made by Laurence Fox on GB News said “the presenter Mark Steyn” was among the first of the channel’s staff members “to express their disgust” at Fox’s comments. This reference should have been to Mark Dolan, not Steyn, who left GB News in February 2023 (Rare climbdown by ‘home of free speech’, 28 September, p2).

    It’s very worrying to see GB News increasingly sound like the BBC in their desperate bid for ‘respectability’.

    Take this headline: “Fears grow of far-Right yobs clashing with pro-Palestine march on Armistice Day,”

    They could have said: “Fears grow of sterling patriots clashing with pro-Hamas yobs march on Armistice Day,”

      The combination of needing to salve BBCOFCOM and investors made it inevitable that GBNews would land up sounding like sky or itv or even the BBC – I dumped it after styne – and it will stay dumped …

        I partly agree, but I still believe that GB News and Talk TV are head and shoulders better than the BBC and the other broadcasters, and worth defending and promoting for that reason.

        For now!

      And this afternoon, one of their dopey female talking heads, referred to Hamas as “militants”.

      Not good…

      I can tell you from my experience so far that quite a lot of young people view Hamas as freedom fighters rather than the crazed butchers they actually are. I believe it is all founded in the youngsters addiction to computer gaming where characters with special powers, usually wearing headbands take on the villians. In fact the garb I have seen of typical Hamas terrorists seems to have been taken straight out of Ninja Turtles……

      Good graphic but it misses out China, Sudan and other countries where muslims are at each other’s throats.

    The odious Owen Jones tries to equate the pro Palestine marches planned for Remembrance Day to the fallen in WW1 and WW2.

    https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2023/nov/08/protesting-armistice-day-peace-war

    Grow up Jones, you are an absolute twat clutching at straws, it is quite obvious that left wing groups are simply going for publicity by smearing a solemn national event. It’s all about publicity and goes against everything that Remembrance Day stands for you bloody poisonous anti-British weevil!

    Not BBC
    Just looking at YouTube on the iPad.
    The entry screen has, near the top of the suggested plays, a friendly James o’Brien interview and a couple of video extracts from the covid enquiry where the government are getting slagged off.

    In other words, YouTube is clearly selecting left of centre anti-government content and prioritising it.

        I don’t mind this ‘skewing’ one little bit!

        As I mentioned on Guido, my side bar is constantly showing some fabulous pictures of girls in their silk nighties and jim-jams!

        So somewhere, there’s an app which noticed that I bought some kit online for Senora O’Blene, and decided that it wasn’t ‘fragrant’ enough!

        But the good thing is, if I ‘make a mistake’ (?), and click on these ads, (accidentally of course, don’t you know), they’re all there yet again when I log on, so a shaky hand is all one needs, not a firm one…
