Brainy But Cowardly (BBC) Misses the Boat Again — Then Again, Don’t They Always?

The BBC output is pro-Palestinian and full of anti Israeli propaganda which facilitates antisemitism.

During the last 3 days I have posted ( with links attached ) some barbaric events in Muslim countries that went unreported on BBC TV News .

Just 4 examples are listed as follows –

1. September 8th – scores of Iraqis riot, wounded and many killed in Basra and Iranian embassy virtually destroyed . Economic reasons and Iranian influences given as reasons for the most serious riots this year [link]

2. September 9th – scores of Yemenis killed and hundreds wounded many fatally in Hodeida as fighting raged between warring factions [link]

3. September 9th – Iran fires missiles into Kurdish areas in Iraq killing at least twenty and injuring many more [link]

4. September 10th – Taliban in Afghanistan kill scores and wound hundreds in attacks in Northern Afghanistan in ongoing conflict. This at a time when the United Kingdom has committed manpower and equipment to Afghanistan in support of the US [link]

Now just imagine if any one of these events had occurred in either Gaza or the West Bank.

Does anyone doubt the saturation coverage that the BBC would have devoted had Palestinians been involved?

Moreover, does anyone doubt irrespective of the circumstances that any such BBC output would have been overwhelmingly sympathetic to the Palestinians and totally negative with respect to Israel?

Incredibly what did make BBC TV’s main nightly bulletin yesterday, September 10th was the closing of the Palestinian office in Washington!!!

This very same item was given headline exposure – the number one item; the most important news on the BBC’s Online News page.

Why are the atrocities and deaths of Kurds, Iraqis, Afghans and Yemenis of no significance to the BBC?

Why are the Palestinians allowed so much sympathetic, saturation coverage even on issues of incomparable importance?

Decent people should be outraged at the BBC’s contempt for those recently slaughtered and maimed as I have identified above.

Had Israelis been the perpetrators of theses events , and I reiterate irrespective of the circumstances and had Palestinians been the victims, irrespective of the circumstances, the BBC would be orgasmic.

Shame on the BBC.

From Our Archive: How Antisemitism Promotes and Permits Murder And Bias (9/16/2021) - Antisemitism ingrains hate that permits murder and a toxic level of bias that only promotes self-righteousness within its ranks - all while they talk out of the other side of their mouth that they are advocates for peace, diversity, and community. Nothing could be further from the truth. (archive https://archive.md/jvUVB)

From Our Archive: Conviction Is Keeping BBC from Publicly Sharing An Internal Investigation (9/14/2021) - After years of complaints and pressure over the BBC's blatant bias against Israel in all aspects of programming, but more particularly News coverage, the BBC commissioned the Balen Report -- then hide it from public view. Convictions will do that -- you either run towards to resolve them or, as in BBC's case, you either run from them and/or bury anything that keeps convicting you. BBC did both of the latter.

United in Jew Hatred (8/18/2021) - Ever notice Jew-hating bigots can never answer ONE question honestly? Peter's question: "What harm has Judaism, Jewish people, Zionism or the Jewish State of Israel, ever inflicted on Ireland, Catholicism, or Irish Republicanism?" The arrogance of not confronting this one question is an arrogance of the most ugliest kind...
