NO SUPPORT

>> TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 23, 2010

Last night, Irish republican terrorists detonated a car bomb at the Court House in Newry. No one was killed or injured but this was through good luck rather than design.

Back in 1985, other Irish republican terrorists bombed this same building. Their proxies now sit in government.

This morning, on the BBC, I heard the BBC's political correspondent Mark Simpson claim that those responsible for the bombing last night had little support "in the community!. This is standard government/BBC operating procedure when these events occur. The fact is that the republican terrorists who carried out this bombing have tried to carry out many other such bombings, have murdered British soldiers and a Police Office, and still been able to melt into the community from which they hailed. It does not suit the Government to have the media expose the significant support that terrorism enjoys in certain areas, the same areas that have always supported violence. Yet the BBC, that tame poodle, simple barks the party line. Another line of enquiry they could have taken is has the removal of border security increased the liklihood of these kind of attacks. Then again once you pay the danegeld.....

OBAMA'S "RADICAL ACTION" DEFERRED...

Illegal immigration features strongly on the BBC this morning. If you listen tothis item you will hear the BBC bemoan Obama's failure to deal "radically" with the millions of illegal immigrants i.e handing them an amnesty for their law-breaking. This is an entirely one-sided issue as presented by Kevin Connolly and another example of how the BBC consistently favours illegal immigration.

THE IMMIGRATION COVER UP

Give a listen to Phil Woolas here getting away with blue murder as he waffles about Labour's policy of mass immigration for social change. Note the amiable tone throughout and the little laugh at the end from Humphyrs.

DYING CAUSE...

Lord Carlile, the veteran Lib Dem peer, is complaining to the BBC Trust about the corporation's biased coverage promoting the legalisation of so-called assisted dying. The phrase itself, of course, is repulsive Newspeak that citizen Smith would have instantly recognised. It's a classic liberal BBC cause: how can it not be right to show 'mercy' to a dying loved one by smothering them or filling them with poison? My analysis of the BBC website this morning shows that every utterance by those in favour, such as the novelist Sir Terry Pratchett (who wants the establishment of killing panels); camapaigner and MS suffererDebbie Purdy; and the lefty journalist Ray Gosling have been slavishly followed and boosted to headline status as if their words were the Holy Writ. To be fair, those against - such as George Galloway - have also been given some airtime; but the overwhelming coverage has been of those who want this form of murder legalised. And of course, the BBC Trust, as they always do, will firmly but politely tell Lord Carlile to go forth and multiply.

OBAMAWORSHIP

Have a read of this slavishly pro-Obama wittering from Mark Mardell on the subject of Obamacare. It appears that despite appearances Obama had no real plan for health-care. Now he does and doesn't Mark sounds excited?

A POLITICAL OPERATION?

So, what do you make of the BBC's coverage of the "Number 10 Bullying" story? Clearly Mandelson's attempt to dismiss the entire issue of the Prime Minister's character backfired but now the attention seems to be have switched to Christine Pratt and the National Bullying Helpline. Is this an attempt to re-frame the essential issue - namely the alleged mental instability of Gordon Brown.

BIGOTED FEAR MONGERS....

Did you see that the New York-based American Jewish Committee has blasted the BBC on Sunday for airing an accusation that Jews around the world assist in supposed Mossad assassinations.

The AJC said in a statement that it was “dismayed that a guest on BBC Radio 4 was allowed to state unchallenged” that the Mossad relies on Jews for assassination plots. “This baseless accusation crosses every red line between legitimate public discussion and bigoted fear-mongering,” said AJC executive director David Harris. “In less than a minute, the BBC has cast a shadow on the lives of Jews worldwide.” BBC Radio 4’s PM program interviewed Gordon Thomas, author of Gideon’s Spies, a book about the Mossad, about the January 20 assassination of Hamas military commander Mahmoud al-Mabhouh in Dubai.
