DAVID VANCE looks at the Middle East through the BBC’s squinting eye:
I see the BBC delights in telling us that Israel is concerned about the number of violent attacks happening in Judea/Samaria (or “West Bank” in BBC talk). The attacks flagged up are being carried out by Jewish settlers. The BBC helpfully shows an accompanying still from the alleged video taken by a pro-Palestinian group Yesh Din to demonstrate just how vicious the Jews living in this area can be. One could be forgiven for thinking that the Palestinians are innocent little lambs. There is never any mention of the barbarity that Palestinians show towards these “settlers. Then again, presenting these people as the aggressors is all part of the ongoing Palestinian propaganda campaign- lapped up and regurgitated by the BBC…

” International Court of Justice, the highest judicial body in the world”
What nonsense. It’s neither ‘international’, nor a ‘court’, nor has it anything to do with ‘justice’. It is a jumped-up political kangaroo tribunal, with exactly nil authority and even less legal understanding of the situation. It even thought that the Green Line is an international border … LOL.
‘BTselem, the Israeli human rights organisation’
It’s not a human rights organisation but a political pressure group.
Anyone who thinks the BBC is ‘not biased’ is living in fantasy land. The BBC’s bias is clearly displayed on its website, in its highly distorted ‘history’ of Israel. It’s clearly displayed every time its ‘reported’ broadcast from the ME.

Yaakov Sullivan - did the earth move for you?
If so was it your lover’s kiss or a hamas hand grenade?
Eva, You don’t have to be a Goy (Gentile) to be anti-Semitic!
There have been plenty of SHJ (self-hating Jews) around since it was discovered that the Goyim (of which there are many) give rewards to SHJ who shout it from the rooftops.
The Nazis knew this and the Jewish traitors (Kapos) got to live a bit longer for leading other Jews into the gas chambers. But they too died in the end - but we the Jews go marching on through history.

Yes those settlers arrested my husband because we kissed during demonstration., They can not stand proud gay internationals especially when the French kiss during demonstrat.ions against occupation.
Next month we are going to Gorgia to emonstrate against Georgia occupation of Ossetia and racial cleansing there by Georgians.

BBC is not biased. The reality is anti-semitic in Occupied Palestinian Territories, which, according to International Court of Justice, the highest judicial body in the world, include, unambiguiously, Gaza, West Bank and East Jerusalem. If BBC is were the only source of information on obscenities of occupation, one could legitimately question if BBC is biased. However, the avalanche of information, from every direction possible, including Haaretz, largest Israeli newspaper with English edition, and BTselem, the Israeli human rights organisation is freely available for anyone with access to internet and a search engine.
