Biased BBC

Sunday, February 01, 2009 David Vance # A TOUGH ROCKET RESPONSE Interesting to read how the BBC presents the news that Hamas has fired more rockets into Israel, in this case landing between two nursery schools in the Eshkol region of southern Israel. The headline is "Israel vows tough rocket response" and launches (if you'll pardon the pun) into a quote from Ehud Olmert vowing a "disproportionate" response to these "rocket attacks on Israel from Gaza." Oh, those war mongering Jews! All the time, the BBC chooses to present this as a war between Israel and Gaza. In this way, the savages in Hamas get a free pass. Lord knows how the BBC will react in just over a week's time when Israel goes to the polls and the prospect of a Netanyahu adminisatration looms! We'll all be Hamas then!

So, when Gordon Brown promised "British jobs for British workers" it now seems that what he meant was "providing people with new skills". LOL! How pathetic is this? The Dear Leader is on The Politics Show later today so if you see it, feel free to leave your comments here! It seems to me that the BBC is in a real quandary over this one since it wants to Save Gordon, of course, but the only way it can do this is to attack those "wildcat" strikers. The BBC is also fervently pro-EU but at the very heart of this issue is the fact that there can be no "British jobs for British workers" whilst we are in the rotten EU - so one more problem for the BBC!

This was a great opportunity to bash any Bible believing Christian whilst embracing the notion that gays uber alles. The panel and audience were loaded with those who believe the answer is YES to the question "Is homosexuality a cause for celebration"? Listen, I have no problem with anyone exercising their free choice to live as they wish, but as a poor Christian surely to God I have a right to hold my opinions without the BBC relentlessly ridiculing me and those that have similar views? Tell you what - maybe Nicky Campbell should have a follow on programme with an invited audience of Muslims and see how he gets on? Mocking those of us who actually believe The Bible gets cheap laughs on the BBC, an organisation that prefers to worship David Attenborough.

Just to say that I have been thinking in recent days about how we make this as pleasant and welcoming a site for people as possible and have decided upon the following. I have asked people not to swear (unless it's for laughs)! and in future, if I am around and see crudity without value, I will delete it. I will also remove any comments which appear gratuitously abusive. If someone chooses to continually resort to ad hominem abuse, I will warn them once and then ban them. I do this to make this a good space for you all. I am no prude and hate having to dictate but this must be done and I am prepared to do it. So, be witty, be incisive, be acerbic, be on topic and you will have no hassle from me. We're finishing January with great traffic, record levels of comment and I sincerely want to do the right thing here to keep things growing and I hope you will support my aim.

It is very interesting to observe how the BBC covers the growing restlessnessamongst the UK workforce as more and more precious jobs are lost to non-nationals. It has to be a tricky one for the multiculti-EU loving BBC and true to form I see that the line currently being peddled is to place all responsibility withthe management of those companies concerned but this obscures the central fact that the companies are lawfully employing EU citizens, it just so happens this is in preference to UK citizens. So the issue is not UK management, it is the provisions of EU legislation that have created circumstances that are now leading, slowly, inexorably, to widespread civil unrest. As I pointed out at the time, when Brown talked about British jobs for British workers, he was lyingthrough his teeth. When the workers in some sectors rose up against the Thatcher government, the BBC were with the comrades all the way but now..ah, it's a lot more difficult...watch this space.

Isn't that a wonderfully innocuous way of revealing that Hamas is still trying to murder those pesky Jews, even during a so-called "cease-fire" (Hudna). The BBC is quick to add that both sides have "violated" the cease-fires, so suggesting an equivalence where none such exists. Hamas has shown bad faith, as one might expect, and is still enthusiastically targeting innocent Israeli people and when Israel dares to respond to this it is then declared to be as bad as Hamas.

Anyone else catch the abomination that is John Simpson fondly recollecting histravel adventures with Iranian Mad Mullan Ayatollah Khomeini on "Today" earlier this morning? In Simpson's world-view, the Shah carried primary responsibility for the return to Iran of Khomeini and naturally Jimmy Carter and the French were absolved of any responsibility! From the sounds of the interview, Simpson admired the Ayatollah. Comments: 23 (unread) - Biased BBC Home
