NO SUPPORT

Last night, Irish republican terrorists detonated a car bomb at the Court House in Newry. No one was killed or injured but this was through good luck rather than design. Back in 1985, other Irish republican terrorists bombed this same building. Their proxies now sit in government. This morning, on the BBC, I heard the BBC’s political correspondent Mark Simpson claim that those responsible for the bombing last night had … Continue reading

OBAMA’S "RADICAL ACTION" DEFERRED…

Illegal immigration features strongly on the BBC this morning. If you listen to this item you will hear the BBC bemoan Obama’s failure to deal “radically” with the millions of illegal immigrants i.e handing them an amnesty for their law-breaking. This is an entirely one-sided issue as presented by Kevin Connolly and another example of how the BBC consistently favours illegal immigration.

DYING CAUSE…

Lord Carlile, the veteran Lib Dem peer, is complaining to the BBC Trust about the corporation’s biased coverage promoting the legalisation of so-called assisted dying. The phrase itself, of course, is repulsive Newspeak that citizen Smith would have instantly recognised.

Is this an attempt to re-frame the essential issue – namely the alleged mental instability of Gordon Brown. Click through to read and contribute … Continue reading

BIGOTED FEAR MONGERS….

Did you see that the New York-based American Jewish Committee has blasted the BBC on Sunday for airing an accusation that Jews around the world assist in supposed Mossad assassinations. The AJC said in a statement that it was “dismayed that a guest on BBC Radio 4 was allowed to state unchallenged” that the Mossad relies on Jews for assassination plots. “This baseless accusation crosses every red line between legitimate public … Continue reading

Dark Forces

I consider the BBC’s bias against Israel to be potentially the most dangerous branch of its non-impartiality. Part of the problem is that they start from a wrong premise, confusing moral equivalence with impartiality. That is to say they give equal consideration, painstakingly, to the views and sensitivities of “all”* no matter if doing so entails promoting the views of thugs, criminals, liars and racists, sometimes above those of law-abiding … Continue reading
