Binyan Mohamed - that well know "British resident" - must be so thankful for the BBC. Today Al Beeb leads the news cycle with Mr Mohamed's scurrilous allegations that he would not have faced torture or extraordinary rendition but for British involvement in his case. Modestly, Binyam would also like to see former PM Blair and former US President George Bush put on trial for their crimes. You can understand why he so engages BBC sympathy, can't you? Anyone surprised that our favourite Ethiopian illegal immigrant chose the BBC to give his first major interview? I wonder how much he was paid for it? Isn't it disgraceful to see Jihadists getting all this oxygen of publicity care of our license taxes?

One moment he is the "new Belfast" interviewing those too young to remember IRA terrorism about ..erm...their memories of IRA terrorism. Then he travels to Londonderry - to the Bogside no less - to check out if republicans still support IRA/Sinn Fein. (Seems they do but other seem very unhappy about condemning the murder of British soldiers, nothing changes). The BBC is in full spin cycle here - it is retailing the government line that we live in a brave new world and we must close our eyes and just get on with the almighty "peace process." Time to forget all about those THOUSANDS of victims of IRA savagery, the BBC mimics the government line that if you want peace you forfeit justice. It would be great if the BBC allowed time for those who oppose all of this nauseating appeasement but I am afraid that just will not happen. The State broadcaster is a participant in the political process. Comments: 4 (unread) - Biased BBC Home Thursday, March 12, 2009 David Vance # GORDON RELIEF. Nice to see the BBC showing us how how the Dear Leader is already joining in the hilarious fun of Red Nose Day. As they point out, Gordon decided not to put on a red nose. He doesn't need to - we all know he is a clown. Comments: 25 (unread) - Biased BBC Home David Vance # APOCALYPSE NOW. Did you read this instance of climate alarmism? As ever, just one point of view. It's not news, it is propaganda. Comments: 37 (unread) - Biased BBC Home
