Former BBC Middle East correspondent Tim Llewellyn: “Zionists are scattered at strategic points throughout British business.”

Yasmin Alibhai-Brown

Alibhai-Brown told of how she had been given a rent free home in England by Professor Hugh Blaschko for seven years after she fled Uganda and how he had said to her that “Israel will bring the worst out in us Jewish people”.

Alibahi-Brown also compared Israel to apartheid South Africa.

Milne said “there are well funded and well organised organisations that campaign in support of Israel. If you’re editing in these area you will find pressure and campaigning constantly by those groups.”

During the Q&A I couldn’t resist mentioning, seeing she was in the audience, that I took the footage that contributed to Jenny Tonge’s exit from the Liberal Democrats. In a bizarre outburst right at the end she took to the microphone to announce:

“I’d like to say, I hope he hasn’t gone, a big, big ‘thank you’ to Richard Millett, the Jewish Chronicle, the Board of Deputies of British Jews and the entire pro-Israel lobby who have relentlessly attacked me for eight years but making sure that the Palestinian cause gets heard.”

I have no problem at all with the Palestinian cause getting heard. The main problem for the Palestinians is that it is heard via the likes of Tonge, Milne, Rowland, Alibhai-Browne and Llewellyn.

Meanwhile, it will be interesting to clarify exactly what Helen Boaden did say that led to Llewellyn’s accusation that the Board of Deputies of British Jews “practically lives at the BBC”.

    Nothing new here, all is as expected by the various persons identified.
    It is hardly surprisding that people complain about the BBC, we after all expect and demand a free news media to be nonselective with events and the truth. With the BBC and the rest of the filth gathered to vent their hatred, those living abroad can now see for themselves the worthless reporting from the BBC in these troubled times.

    To ‘borrow’ a line from the great W. Churchill, ‘Never in the field of human political discussion has so much rubbish, lies and total lack of knowledge been sprouted by so few people about one country’.

  4. What does strike me very negatively is the fact, that ALL Israel ever does will be laid out against it.

    against Jews and Zionism.

    Tim Llewellyn, former BBC mid east correspondent, is an EVIL neonazi who speaks of “ZIONISTS SCATTERED ACROSS BRITISH BUSINESS”.

    “ZIONISTS”? so all pro-Israel People are “zionists”. well, ok let’s go for once, just for fun and theory, go along with that totally moronic, false and stupid assumption.

    EVEN THEN: … SO WHAT? :) LOL !!! :)

    you see. we can as single persons get provoked by others. but not as a whole group. !!!

    and this concerns ALL situations. I repeat: ALL .

    From a Jew. nine tenths of my family was gased in auschwitz. Viva Paulo Coelho.

  5. @HepLev: Excellent. Exzellent. Animiert mich direkt zum Handeln, und das direkte Beschaun aller Fakten ist echt TOP. Gratulation. !

    HEPLEV dot WORDPRESS dot COM is a SUPER PLACE equally good as HonestReporting, actually. It’s the german equivalent of it, and it DOES sound even more like a VERY GOOD ANTIFA-talk. SHORT, TRUE, FACTS. TACHLES.

    BRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAVOOO !!!!!

    I will link to HONREP on my own site and SPREAD DA GOSPEL !!! DO THAT TOO, ALL FOLX !!!
