BBC journos are all too ready to show victims of Israeli ‘brutality’….or even vicitms of Syrian bombings dressed up as victims of Israeli ‘aggression’.   Will they show this and the true  nature of Hamas/Palestinian animals…..(Graphic photo) a half dozen men on motorcycles just dragged the body of a man down a main street in #Gaza. They were yelling he was a spy for Israel— Anderson Cooper (@andersoncooper) November … Continue reading →

The BBC has been caught once again peddling Hamas propaganda.  If they cannot be certain of the origin of a photo then should they be so ready to use it…especially of such an emotive subject? The BBC knows, just as Hamas does, that the ‘tears of a child say more than words ever can’.  A picture of an injured or dead child is ‘currency’ in the world of Hamas propaganda … Continue reading →

One of the themes for the defence of the BBC and its management is that the BBC is ‘accountable’, that no other organisation would investigate itself so thoroughly and that top management took responsibility for the recent crisis. Entwistle only went because he was ‘pushed’, and ‘pushed’ by his own side in the shape of John Humphrys.  In that interview he tried to evade all responsibility just as he did … Continue reading →

The Today programme bring on a ‘ringer’ (Last 5 minutes) in the form of Abd Al Bari Atwan, editor of Al Quds Al Arabi  newspaper…from Gaza and who is pretty much an extremist where Israel is concerned….but the BBC don’t mention that when they usher him in to give us his take on the Israeli response to being bombarded by Palestinian rockets……. He claims there is no military solution….in other … Continue reading →

The BBC’s coverage is getting ever more disgraceful when you consider the ultimate consequences of the effect such coverage begets for Jews around the world. This was a sequence of reports from the BBC on 5Live: 1. Multiple News bulletins….. ‘Israel continues its bombardment of Gaza which has been hit with 80 Israeli strikes….only one rocket was fired from Gaza.’ 2.  Single report……Jon Donnison reports that Israel has made 80 … Continue reading →

Overdue but finally here!

Why Pakistan? Some of you have questioned what Pakistan had to do with a post about Israel. The fact you have to ask that answers your own question in a way….the BBC is nowhere near as concerned with the ‘illegal creation’ of Pakistan as it is with Israel. Just why is the BBC so concerned about Palestinians but so relatively unconcerned about Indians in Kashmir or Bangladeshi history? Muslims and … Continue reading →

  Always providing a balanced approach to BBC bias I offer you this: As bombs rain down on the people of Gaza the BBC has once again transformed itself into a platform for Israeli government spokespeople and apologists   And an example of their reasoning: ‘Discussing Operation Cast Lead, another recent report on the BBC website tells us that in 2008 ‘hundreds of Palestinians were killed on the first day … Continue reading →

    Via Bishop Hill The New Statesman reminds us of the BBC’s values: ‘The intrinsic value of the BBC embodies an unfashionable, anti-market ethos.’ ….whilst paying themselves hefty salaries of course….and all at the same time as denouncing Capitalism, Consumerism and ‘The Market’. This simple video demonstrates what ‘The market’ does for you…providing jobs, money, necessities of life at prices you can afford, and not a few luxuries, as … Continue reading →
