BBC correspondent Mike Thomson travels to Somalia and here is the first in what the BBC threatens will be a series of reports. Oh god. Within a few minutes, Thomson cuts to the chase and asks the US Ambassador Mike Ranneberger why the US refuses to enter into negotiations with the Al Shabaab Islamic killing gangs. When the US ambassador says it is wrong to talk to terrorists, Thomson shoots back that this is what the UN “special representative” has told him is necessary. In every situation, the BBC seeks to advance the idea that talking to terrorists is always the right thing to do. In a typical BBC flourish the piece finishes with a woman singing, Lennon-esque, for peace. Yes, that’s going work real well with the Islamic hordes that seek to slaughter in the name of their faith. The real story in Somalia is the unspeakable violence carried out in the name of Islam – but I suggest Mr Thomson will do everything possible to occlude this central reality.
