The Beeb Discovers Terror
October 10, 2012 11:58 by Pesach BensonJust noticed the word “terror” appeared twice on the BBC’s Mideast page. Whoda thought?
More on the Heathrow terror arrests and Abu Hamza’s terror charge.
Spotting the T-word at the Beeb is a lot like bird-watching — you see a lot of interesting things, but patience rewards you with rare birds.
So whether you’re looking for “terror” at the Beeb or a particular snipe in Israel, enjoy it while you can. While the BBC doesn’t have an axe to grind with snipes, its editorial guidelines frown on the T-word.

The BBC will describe terrorists as terrorists only if it is against British citizens

I like the answer of this German Scholar when he was asked about terrorism and Islam: He said:
· Who started the First World War, which killed 37 million and injured 22, 379, 053 that includes 7 million civilians? Muslims?
· Who started the Second World War, which killed over 60 million, which was over 2.5% of the world population? Muslims?
· Who killed about 20 million of Aborigines in Australia? Muslims?
· Who drop the nuclear bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, which killed 166,000 people in Hiroshima and 80,000 in Nagasaki? Muslims?
· Who killed more than 100 million Red Indians in North America? Muslims?
· Who killed more than 50 million Indian in South Americ
Hot debate. What do you think?

The Beeb ONLY avoids the “T” word when the action is against Israel when terrorists magically morph into “militants”.

The Beeb now has its own internal problems regarding one Jimmy Saville and what they chose to disregard about his perpetrating abuse under their own roof. can we then be surprised at their total lack of integrity and honesty when it comes to reporting about Israel and those who are rightly placed under the big ‘T’ word!!

the beeb is run by extreme leftwing liberals, who have a fixation on Israel and chhoose to treat that country the way they do as part of their anti USA dogma. Note how they report the darling Obama in comparison to Romney.
The Beeb establishment shows its credentials on a daily basis. Saville and others are only a part of the problem They have the same attitude as British parliamentarians, they are above the law and encourage what I call legal corruption. If an ordinary member of the public were to do what the Beebs and Parliaments elitists do, believe me, they would be arrrested, thrown into jail and charged and made to pay the costs.
Britain is as corrupt as the rest of Europe.

I don’t like the answer of that muslim non-scholar MOHAMMED.
i say:
who is turning the facts to “his” favor on purpose, not respecting them, but abusing them for his own likes, at wish, and different in ANY moment?
MOHAMMED !
who is named after someone who got rich during his conquests and had some 5000 or more Jews, and some 200’000 or much more other People slaughtered for an opressive, sorry: primitive sudo-”religion”?
MOHAMMED !
shall i go on.
Mohammed, don’t barge in here and speak “in riddles”. if you wanna hurt, harm of kill Jews, say it openly. are you one of those anti-israel snakish mussies? oy. evil people always eat themselves up so I have no worry you’ll be away soon MF
