BBC Can’t Admit the Obvious

The Australian Broadcasting Corporation insists that the Bondi Beach terrorist attack had nothing to do with religion. 

Not to be outdone, the British Broadcasting Corporation says, “Hold My Beer,” and refuses to admit that the Intifada(s) were all about killing Jews. 

Unbelievably, @BBCNews has done a THIRD version trying to explain what Intifada means and STILL doesn’t mention the actual violence of the first and second Intifadas. https://t.co/st3BTHaNde pic.twitter.com/KxZY4EaiGG

During the first and second Intifadas, about 1200 Jews were killed in various terrorist attacks, including suicide bombings at a disco and an attack during a Passover Seder in a hotel that killed 30. 

How is the BBC still messing up the basics after they’ve been forced to apologize for anti-Israel bias so many times?

How does the BBC describe the Intifada? “Mostly unarmed.” And “Globalize the Intifada” could mean “peaceful resistance.”

All this comes after an internal review that the BBC hid until it was leaked, which admitted that it had been spreading Hamas propaganda.

The BBC has admitted it risked misleading the public by failing to acknowledge that Hamas was an anti-Semitic group with the stated aim of targeting Jews.

The broadcaster has amended a four-year-old BBC Arabic online article about the terror group to include references to its founding principles being based on a hatred of Jews.

The article was only changed following a complaint by a pro-Israel media monitoring group.

The BBC was previously forced to change a report in which it describes the Palestinian intifada uprisings, in which thousands died on both sides, as “largely unarmed and popular”.

Following a series of complaints by the Committee for Accuracy in Middle East Reporting and Analysis (CAMERA), the BBC has this month extensively amended the BBC Arabic article about the origins of Hamas, originally published in 2021.

The broadcaster has now added to the article an explanation that Hamas’s founding principles included anti-Semitism.

The institutional bias is so deeply embedded that even when it is caught lying, it can’t bring itself to correct the record. Even when it gets slapped upside the head and is forced to correct the record, they can only bear to admit that “some say” the truth, while others disagree. 

The BBC has already said it will review its coverage of the Middle East after admitting to multiple problems with its reporting of the war in Gaza.

The broadcaster accepted that it must “learn lessons” after allegations of bias were exposed.

Danny Cohen, the former director of BBC Television, told The Telegraph: “It is appalling that it has taken this long for the BBC to accept that Hamas is an anti-Semitic organisation. It proves once again that BBC Arabic fails to meet the standards we should all expect from the BBC.

“It remains extremely concerning that the BBC relies upon BBC Arabic to provide stories and sources as part of the news it provides to UK licence fee payers. How can members of the Jewish community trust the BBC’s reporting whilst this remains the case?”

Earlier this month, the BBC changed a report on its website explaining the origin of the word intifada. This had originally made no mention of the death of 1,000 Israelis and around 5,000 Palestinians in clashes and terrorist attacks between 1987 and 2005.

Following complaints from Jewish readers, the report was changed by the BBC to say that the word intifada was regarded by some “as a call for violence against Jewish people”.

“Some say that the Earth is round,” but others disagree. While true in the most minimal sense, one statement reflects reality, and the other is obviously wrong. You can’t put them on the same plane unless you are trying to obscure the truth.

It’s not just the BBC, of course. The Associated Press famously has worked closely with Hamas, to the point of sharing offices in the 2010s, and most reporters covering Gaza are approved by Hamas or Hamas operatives because any more objective reporters are at risk of being killed by the terrorist organization.

BBC led the charge on the fake Israeli bombing of a hospital that supposedly killed 500? Not one word of the story was true. The explosion was caused by a Palestinian Islamic Jihad rocket that misfired, it hit a parking lot, and nowhere near 500 people were killed. Yet they persisted in pushing the falsehood until it completely fell apart. 

One of the most popular news resources in America and Britain, the BBC, states that the Palestinians simply do not have missiles of such power to cause such damage to a hospital, so the allegations of self-fire are false. pic.twitter.com/UlvOIEOTBT

The BBC is one of the most trusted news sources in the world, and as with every major institution in the Western world, it is now using the credibility it built up over decades to spread lies. 

It inspires rage. But fear not, it will only be “fiery and mostly peaceful” rage.
