It amazes me how often Mona Siddiqui, Professor of Islamic Studies and Director for the Study of Islam, gets a bully-pulpit on Thought for the Day. She was on AGAIN this morning, extolling Islam’s quest for academic excellence. Last time I checked in parts of the Islamic world education meets an explosive demise. It is very odd how Islamicn scholars get such prominence on the BBC given the minority status … Continue reading
For almost a week now, the BBC has been flogging the dead horse of the “tensions” caused by Cameron’s straight-talking concerning elements within the Pakistani establishment being sympathetic to terrorism. I am sorry if I am being repetitive on it but it is amazing to turn on the radio or TV each day and see the BBC coat-trail this non-story as if it were a matter of great global concern. … Continue reading
OK, the attack line is clear. When it comes to Foreign Policy, Conservative leader David Cameron is “a klutz”. The BBC delighting here in a non-event comment where he accidentally suggested that Iran – the nexus of evil – had a nuclear weapon. Whether he actually said what is being suggested by Labour, and promoted by the BBC, is beside the point because the BBC then uses the same item … Continue reading
Greenies want to control with jackboots, writs and taxes every aspect of our behaviour under the cloak of “sustainability”. This is chillingly illustrated in the latest offering in the BBC’s regular platform for fanatics, the Green Room. Here, a career agitator called Owen Gaffney, who works for the the International Geosphere-Biosphere Programme (IGBP)- an international body so incredibly manipulative in its goals that it is beyond Orwell’s worst nightmares – … Continue reading

..in a Surrounding Mass.*George Alegiah almost beamed as he announced that Israel has agreed to co-operate with the UN in the flotilla inquiry.People who defend Israel might heave a small sigh of relief at that news. There’s a saying I’ve just invented that goes: ‘sometimes Israel makes things more difficult for its defenders than is necessary.’ I often read Ray Cook’s interesting blog, and he’s glad they’ve decided to go … Continue reading
Wonder did you read this piece of biased pro-Hezbollah garbage from the BBC’s Natalia Antelava? Aren’t Hezbollah just wonderful – and as for that guy Nasrallah – I bet he makes YOU feel safe too. Unless you are a Jew, and then, who cares. Right? Click through to read and contribute comments on this post.
So-called charities like Oxfam and WWF are without doubt the leaders of climate change hysteria. They demonstrated this at the recent formal UN climate change talks by smashing the Saudia Arabia nameplate in pieces and despositing it in a hotel lavatory bowl, sparking a diplomatic incident. Their grievance was apparently that the Saudi desire to keep selling oil so that our cars can run and we can keep warm was … Continue reading
My post Self-Fulfilling Backlash suggested the press was trying to whip up an artificial storm over a comment by Shimon Peres, which was taken out of context and sensationalised by the Telegraph and Haartetz. Now it seems they have succeeded in doing so. A damp squib, anyway. Who’s surprised?The Express and the Mail have jumped aboard, with the help of Andrew Rosindell who the Express quotes as saying: “It is … Continue reading
What does Mossad really get up to? That’s the burning question that concerns the BBC. You can find out here! Funny how the success of Mossad so bothers the BBC. They’re still upset about the Hamas terrorist taken out by someone in Dubai. Can you imagine the howls of indignation from the BBC if our own secret services were half as effective as Mossad in these times? Click through to read … Continue reading
