The BBC’s Ian Pannell claims that Hamas made no claim about capturing an Israeli soldier, a claim that mislead everyone including the IDF into thinking he was a prisoner:       Obviously he hasn’t read Hamas’s Twitter feed:       So did the Israeli’s invent the story of the captured soldier or were they lead to believe that by the fact that he … Continue reading →

The BBC has lovingly lingered on UNRWA condemnation of Israel for hitting a THIRD UNRWA school. It’s all part of the “damn-Israel” meme that the BBC has spewed out during the latest conflict. However, for some reason, none of the world class BBC journalists felt inclined to ask UNWRA why it has allowed at least THREE of its schools to be used to store Hamas missiles. Further, why has the … Continue reading →

    The BBC’s Jon Donnison shows he doesn’t care a jot about the Israelis…it’s all their own fault…   Hmmm….wonder if we can blame the BBC et al for all Hamas’ actions now that they have the BBC in their corner? Will the Israelis then be ‘reaping’ what the BBC has sown?  Of course they won’t be called Israelis then…just refugees, displaced persons…or corpses. I wonder if he thinks … Continue reading →

                          England cricketer Moeen Ali, of Pakistani ‘heritage’, and a Muslim, wore wristbands that said ‘Save Gaza’ and ‘Free Palestine’.   Both are highly political statements, in particular the ‘Free Palestine’ one which cheerleads the destruction of Israel as ‘Palestine’ is considered to be from the ‘river to the sea’ and the State of Israel itself is considered by … Continue reading →

I can see that the current Open Thread is bulging at the seams so time for a new one! As we prepare for another week of BBC bias, THIS is where to detail it and debate it.

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E-QIPE53aTc     The BBC did nothing to dispel the Palestinian Pallywood propaganda that claimed an Israeli sniper killed an unarmed man despite the huge response to the video and its uptake by mainstream media. How different the BBC reaction when a small video goes on-line showing a boy firing an RPG on a beach with a few claims that it is a beach in Gaza. Israeli shells … Continue reading →

Quite a remarkable attack on Israel by Paddy Ashdown on the BBC this morning. It all feeds into the BBC meme that Israel has the theoretical right to defend itself but in practise this must not happen. Ashdown was allowed to throw out the faux comparison to what has happened in Northern Ireland – so ignoring the fact that the moment Palestinians got their Judenfrei Gaza they instantly turned it … Continue reading →

       Here are some guidelines from Ofcom with regard to what we should expect from the BBC in the way of programme standards: The BBC is required to observe certain of the programme standards objectives (“the relevant programme standards”) set by Ofcom under section 319 of the Act, namely: Refraining from the use of techniques which exploit the possibility of conveying a message to viewers or listeners, or … Continue reading →

Two words guaranteed to strike fear into the soul of any thinking person – Marcus Brigstock, that much loved BBC “comedian’. I accidentally caught a portion of his BBC Radio 4 programme “The Brig Society”. It was horrendous – the running “joke” was UKIP are racists. The degree of conformity amongst BBC comedians is incredible – all hive think.

Here you go, an on-time freshly prepared OPEN THREAD to see us all off into the wide blue yonder of the weekend. HERE is where you detail the bias as you see it. A new month commences…
