"It takes a lot to bring 250 protesters to BBC headquarters in London, but British Jewry has had enough. On Chanukah, a group of Muslims attacked a bus filled with Jews in the center of London. BBC falsely reported that anti-Muslim slurs could be heard from within the bus, deftly turning the victim into the victimizer. Subsequently, BBC has been accused of breaking the law in its reporting of the incident and is being sued, the claimants stating that the passengers on the bus are being discriminated against in the BBC’s reporting of the incident.Senior BBC producer Alaa Daraghme shared a video on Twitter he captioned, 'An Israeli settler ramming a Palestinian man near the Lions Gate.' In fact, the car drove onto the sidewalk after an attempt by Palestinians to lynch the Jewish driver, who then lost control of the vehicle.BBC reporter Tala Halawa tweeted, 'Hitler was right.' Halawa said that Israel should be moved to the US, that 'Jerusalem is Palestinian" and 'Zionists can’t get enough of our blood.'The Jewish Chronicle reports that the BBC interview with Youtuber Mohammed Hijab who has half a million+ followers, and who has stood beside Palestinian flags declaring that he 'loves death" was asked by journalist Tom Brada how to 'promote a sense of harmony, specifically with the Jewish community.' Hijab replied that the answer lay in 'bringing people together' though he emphasized that 'if someone who is an apologist for Israel or Zionism, that should be delineated from Jewishness.' The BBC journalist said he 'completely agrees' with Hijab’s statement.BBC Arabic-language broadcasts often refer to all Israelis as 'settlers' – even those not living in disputed territories.The UK Jewish community is reeling from attacks. Britain’s Jewish Community Trust (CST) says that the Israeli Hamas war in May led to 639 anti-Jewish hate incidents, the highest monthly incidents ever recorded. There were 1,308 anti-Semitic incidents nationwide between January and June 2021, a 49% increase over 2020."
The BBC hopes to move up in the rankings by hiring a Muslim to run the BBC’s religion and ethics department of Channel 4 according to this report by Christians Together,
"Channel Four’s Aaqil Ahmed has been selected to run the BBC’s religion and ethics department as part of the second round of Knowledge appointments – in which four of the key commissioning jobs have been handed to existing BBC staff.
Mr Ahmed’s previous commissions for Channel Four included the Emmy short listed two part series ‘The Cult of the Suicide Bomber’, the two hour documentary ‘The Qur’an’ and the genre breaking series ‘Priest Idol’ and ‘Make me a Muslim’. He was moved to the BBC after Roman Catholic priests raised the issue that his Channel Four documentaries appeared to contain a pro-Islam bias and failed to give enough attention and respect to Christianity."
I view Jew-hating as a measure of the sickness of societies. There is absolutely no excuse for this in the modern information era. It is pure bigotry.
ReplyDeleteBigotry which is being tolerated by the media. Have you ever heard Tom Lehrer sing “National Brotherhood Week”? It it, he sings “Everyone hates the Jews..” In truth, not everyone, but an awful lot. Here is a link to the song. https://youtu.be/sEGRsE1Fubw
