Well yeah….Husain always gets the Muslim gig…is she given it because of her ‘special’ knowledge and empathy or does she demand it because of her special interest and wish to push the Musim angle?…whichever it’s nearly aways Husain who does the Gaza bit….maybe they’ll start questioning the wisdom of that now….
‘The BBC has admitted that it failed to sufficiently challenge an Iranian guest who accused Israel of being an “ethno-supremacist” state that is committing a “holocaust” in Gaza.
Mohammad Marandi, a professor at the University of Tehran, appeared on Radio 4’s flagship show on Tuesday to comment on how Iran would respond to Israel’s “limited” ground invasion inside Lebanon.
In what Jewish organisations called a “disgraceful” move, Mishal Husain, the BBC presenter, permitted Mr Marandi to speak at length, unchallenged, as he called Israel a “genocidal regime” that believed its citizens were the “chosen people”.
A BBC spokesman said: “The Today programme covered the latest developments in Lebanon and the Middle East and interviewed a range of people including IDF spokesperson Lt Col Peter Lerner, US Diplomat Dennis Ross and Iranian academic Mohammad Marandi to get a broad perspective on the complex politics of the region.’

“Chosen people” ? Use of that expression sort a’ proves that the teachings of islam is behind the hatred of Israel and its people. Given absolute removal of that doctrine from islam and at least 3/4 generations of muslims into the future, maybe there will be peace in the Middle East. Anyone who has lived in the Middle East would probably agree. It is a mindset from centuries of muslim hate.
I have previously related the story of buying a Bartholomew’s Atlas while living in Saudi. The ‘State’ had opened every cellophane rapper, removed the atlas and with marker black pen,
obliterated any reference to Israel including the index. What hope is there?

“Why play the Saudi anthem before an all-British boxing match?
From magazine issue:
28 September 2024”
https://www.spectator.co.uk/article/why-play-the-saudi-anthem-before-an-all-british-boxing-match/
I wasn’t there at the invitation of the organisers, which is just as well because someone who was – Oliver Brown, the Telegraph’s chief sports writer – got turned away for having written something critical about ‘Saudi sportswashing’ the day before. If I’d witnessed that, I hope I would have spun on my heels and followed him back down Wembley Way. The fact that he was refused entry for criticising the Gulf kingdom is outrageous, given that it was a heavyweight title fight on British soil and he’s an accredited sports journalist.
I’d been given four tickets by a colleague, and I took Caroline, my son Freddie and a boxing-mad friend of his. We didn’t quite have ringside seats, but they were one tier below and offered a pretty good view.

“It turns out that the Missunde III’s glorious solar roof acted like a great sail in the face of those stiff northern winds. Her small electric motors had trouble overcoming the force, such that she took twice as long to cross the Schlei against the wind as her drab and dirty older sister. The Missunde III’s greater weight also placed too much strain on her guidance cables, and she had trouble mooring at the dock. Cables can be changed out, but the mooring problems were far graver. The chubby Missunde III would require additional dolphins to be driven into the Schlei. Alas, ramming sticks into the bed of a fjord that also happens to be in the centre of a nature preserve is not exactly environmentally friendly; you have to do soil assessments, you have to apply for permits, it is not certain you’ll be granted those permits, and all of that anyway takes a long time.”
“Thus the Office for Coastal Protection finally went limping back to the not-so-dim buyer who purchased the Missunde II for 17,000 Euros, and struck a deal to buy it back from him for 100,000 Euros.”

“Carter became President by narrowly defeating an uninspiring, unelected chief executive heir to the worst presidential scandal in history.
Jimmy Carter was the second death knell for the old liberal politics of the 1960s. The first had been the Democratic candidate preceding him, George McGovern. Carter was successful largely because he was one of the first to discern the public’s overall disaffection with liberalism that endures to this day.
His refusal to engage in a give and take with Congress; the ill-conceived boycott of the Olympic Games; his inability to use force effectively to resolve the crisis in Iran; his inability to build coalitions and to be flexible in dealings with friends and foes. These varied characteristics combined to brand him as ineffectual. ”

I thought I’d make the effort to listen to the hamas Islamic terrorist radio station . Nassa Yasmin was the first up – badged as a Lebanon emergency minister ‘. Interviewed by meesh .
As witnessed here yesterday – meesh is on a yellow card because of her failure to challenge anti semitic poison from one of her interviewees ( I thought that normal bbc practice )
Anyway – the Islamic terrorist spokesman to day said the Israel had ‘professionalised genocide ‘ – a phrase he used at least 3 times … meesh did the minimum by saying maybe Israel had a right to defend itself .. but he was allowed to just rant on ….
I hope he is on an IDF target list but I bet it’s very long …..
Early they deployed orla the hamas spokesman to find some Muslim victims – not so much about Israeli victims killed / injured yesterday ….

As our media tends to keep mum over our war (with Russia) or does it just bore them? Anyway… shhhhhh.
Meanwhile, we’re subjected to one hell of noise over the middle east conflict.
Ten out of eleven national titles in the BBC’s online press line-up go with variations on the Telegraph’s: Iran attacks Israel or the Guardian’s cart-before-the-horse admixture of past, present and future tense version: Israel vows to retaliate after Iran launches missiles – as their shared top headline frontpage story.
Only the ‘and finally’ Daily Star refuses to join the uniform news parade with their: Queen’s funeral horsey gets OBE… Gong for long-faced hero who led Lizzy procession
It’s one hell of a racket of “Foreign Bang-Bang” – as Kelvin MacKenzie on Newsnight once coined our liberal media obsession – to the discomfort of many an overly-earnest female broadcast journo with strained intonation – happily oufitted in khaki shirt, bulletproof gilet with press logo and a kevlar fascinator perched on her bonce.
If politics is showbiz for the ugly, foreign war correspondent is an absolute catwalk for our ardent types, the former captains of the girls’ hockey teams.
The aptronymed Paul Nuki, ‘Global Security Editor’ for the Telegraph reportedly ‘on the road near Tel Aviv’, says come on in girls the “Foreign Bang-Bang” is lovely and warm: A rocket missed me by a minute… and then came the onslaught – dramatic ellipsis (dot, dot, dot) pause is his own – not mine.
All this noise: Iran fires missile barrage against Israel (FT); Revenge from above (Mirror); Middle East erupts (Times) – one can hardly hear oneself think… about Sir Keir Starmer’s little secret.
And other news closer to home is drowned out by the hullabaloo: Girl, 14, seriously hurt in acid attack at school… the man’s face was obscured “possibly by a mask or balaclava” (BBC) – and yet extraordinarily: The force described the suspect as a tall and slim black man wearing dark clothing and riding an e-scooter. (BBC)
And then there’s this bit of feel good reportage: In pictures: 100 weddings in a day… Old Marylebone Town Hall in central London hosted back-to-back ceremonies on Tuesday to celebrate its 100th birthday. (BBC) – quick bit of statistical analysis on the BBC-curated selection of 12 of those 100 wedding pics would suggest 17% are same sex marriages (both combos are represented) and no less than 33% (one-thrid) are mixed race couples (and I’m not including purported Scots grooms in kilts as a separate ethnicity)
With the Israel war news shouting down other features on the frontpages one does at least salvage a calm down dear from the rubble: I’m entering my granny pants era – and feel empowered by Kate Lister (‘i’) – frankly, luv, any female who doesn’t yet feel empowered by our mainstream media these days must perhaps have something wrong with them…

Fedup- The BBC are incorrigible when it comes to Israel.
I watched the news channel last night and had to turn
it off ,before I would of thrown a brick at the screen.
The BBC of today , would of done the Nazis bidding for
them if they had succeeded with an invasion.
” Here is the 7AM news Jews must report to Liverpool Street
station by 9AM to catch their trains to Harwich on to
Auschwitz. Where they will be resettled.”
That is if the Nazis had not set up a concentration camp
in Orla Guerrin’s home country .Where the Germans would
of been made welcome. On the doctrine that ” The enemy
of my enemy ,is my friend.” Which also applies to the
anarchist Marxist news editors at the BBC . So far as Israel
is concerned.

Another attempt to influence the US election, remember its Trump that is “a threat to democracy”
“J.D. Vance and Tim Walz’s first and only vice presidential debate in New York sparked fiery exchanges and interventions from the CBS moderators and Donald Trump.
Hosts Norah O’Donnell and Face the Nation host Margaret Brennan were accused of being biased after cutting Vance’s mic when he hit back at a fact check on his claims on Haitian migrants in Springfield, Ohio.
Megyn Kelly led the fury by posting ‘How Dare You! on X on a night where Vance have a strong performance and Walz had a stumbling start.”

China investing alot.
…………………
In the last five years, Chinese investment in Hollywood has been steadily growing until a crackdown on overseas investment. In 2016, Chinese real estate and theater chain mogul Wang Jianlin’s Wanda Group acquired Legendary Entertainment for $3.5 billion and took a majority stake in AMC in 2012 for $2.5 billion.
In 2020, Chinese ticket sales exceeded ticket sales in the United States, making China the number one box-office market in the world. This huge market share means that Hollywood has begun tailoring its casting, story lines, and dialogue to fit Chinese—not American—audiences.

“In his 2022 book Red Carpet: Hollywood, China, and the Global Battle for Cultural Supremacy, Erich Schwartzel makes a case that China’s current system of censoring American films bears a striking resemblance to the Nazi playbook. As a film industry reporter for the Wall Street Journal, Schwartzel is perfectly positioned to write this sweeping story of Hollywood’s perverse relationship with China.
Throughout the 1930s, German officials presided over a system of censorship and coercion. For years, this system forced Hollywood to suppress stories that offended Nazi sensibilities in exchange for access to German markets.
For example, German censors demanded that Universal Studios scrub its 1930 film All Quiet on the Western Front of any scene that might demean Germans. Hollywood obliged and deleted unflattering depictions of German soldiers. German censors further demanded that the edited version of the film be the version shown not only in Germany, but in cinemas around the world. Georg Gyssling, “Hitler’s ambassador to Hollywood,” exerted pressure on studios to cancel screenings of anti-Nazi films like Are We Civilized and Mad Dog. It wasn’t until the start of World War II that Hollywood stopped doing Germany’s bidding.”

“home of horror | How MI5 protected child sex abusers in the notorious Kincora Boys’ Home
Journalist Chris Moore – the author of book ‘The Kincora Scandal’ – writes about how the secret service helped cover up sex abuse. The British government is desperate to bury Kincora once and for all and has tried countless diverse types of inquiries to create the impression that they are open, accountable and have nothing to hide.
They set up inquiry after inquiry into Kincora – each with powers so limited that MI5 are saved from aggressive interrogation and mandatory powers to squeeze out the truth about MI5’s interest in a boys’ hostel in east Belfast.
Their message is consistently promoted – we have nothing to hide.
If that is true, why are Kincora state documents locked away and not to be published until 2065 in one instance and 2085 in another?”

Regarding the American elections, I can hardly believe that anyone with an IQ above double figures is in any doubt about which way to vote…
From the cowardly and catastrophic exit from Afghanistan to the Russian invasion of Ukraine, to the horrors now being experienced in the middle east and to their utterly hopeless problems on their southern border. The Americans and therefore the rest of us, have had four years of utter calamity.
When Trump was in charge none of these problems were happening. The world was kept in a state of, an albeit grudging and uneasy, peace. I think that’s about as good as it can ever get.
Most lefty politicians are still fretting about pronouns and the myths of global warming, while the planet is facing a potential world war.
These are luxury beliefs for college campuses, not for the grownups.
Let Kamala continue cackling and let Trump and Vance deal with the very real problems facing the world.

“UN staff fired over possible links to 7 October attack.
Nine staff members at the UN agency for Palestinian refugees, UNRWA, may have been involved in the 7 October Hamas-led attack on Israel, the United Nations says.
All nine would have their employment terminated, said UN deputy spokesperson Farhan Haq.
He said the UN had completed an investigation following allegations by Israel that UNRWA staff were involved.”

“UN says gunmen were filmed in abandoned Rafah aid warehouse.
The United Nations has responded to Israeli claims that one of its aid warehouses in Gaza was being used by Palestinian gunmen, saying its staff had evacuated and abandoned the compound.
The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) released drone footage that it said showed armed “terrorists roaming and shooting” next to marked UN vehicles at the facility in eastern Rafah on Saturday.”

A hidden benefit to the BBC of the Iranian missile attack on Israel was that they devoted the entire 6 pm news bulletin to it.
No other news was covered.
So the Tory party conference had no coverage at all.
Unlike the Labour Party conference.
PS I recall the LibDems got more coverage than none. Which was also more than for the Reform conference.
But all completely impartial of course.

Growing concerns and evidence that the mRNA vaccines are contaminated by DNA — and the regulator in Oz responds to an FOIA by redacting most of the pages. Some information is less free than others.
A reminder that the claim DNA could be altered by these products was ‘debunked’ by BBC’s Reality Check (the precursor to Verify).
And what’s happening in the C19 inquiry today…? “Further final questions are now being put to the witnesses by Ifeanyi Odogwu on behalf of Core Participant: Federation of Ethnic Minority Healthcare Organisations (FEMHO).”

The government mouthpiece, getting its script from Reeves, just so we are told and will accept the budget as we have been pre-warned:-
The chancellor says she needs to raise £20bn. How might she do it?

Now, whether that really is a newly discovered black hole is a matter of dispute. Either way, given Ms Reeves has ruled out borrowing to fund day-to-day spending, she is still likely to need to raise taxes to pay for that spending.
