BBC paid our licence money to Hamas.

No words. See BBC news for announcement and apology for 'serious flaws' over Gaza documentary.
Perhaps the 500 luvvies who lobbied for the documentary to be reinstated will also apologise for their stupidity.

They are not taught that.

This sums it up

Article from the BBC

Interestingly Dorothy Byrne who was cited in the previous thread about the documentary quite rightly criticising the BBC for their lack of due diligence has said:

In her view the film isn't "pro-Hamas".
"Watching it, I was struck by the efforts at balance. It contains voices who curse the leaders of Gaza."

It's such a shame that lack of due diligence from the BBC has allowed those who wish to silence Palestinian voices to label this documentary as hamas propaganda.

To quote the article linked above

The losers in all this are the young citizens of Gaza. The stories of the children in this film - and the suffering they have endured - aren't now being seen.

It is literally Hamas propaganda and no one is trying to “silence Palestinian voices”.

BBC manipulated by terrorists. They aren't the only ones ones being manipulated either! Lots of people are

Danny Cohen, a prominent figure in London's Jewish community who regularly criticises the BBC's coverage of the war, accusing the broadcaster of anti-Israel bias.

He's right

It is incredible to me the lengths certain posters on here will go to in order to excuse Hamas and discredit Jews.

One of the many things I've come to understand since Oct 7 is that some people will defend absolutely ANYTHING if it means siding against Jews.

Why did you feel the need to mention he is Jewish?

Curious if that poster would be equally suspicious of Black people calling out racism - or is it only Jews who are inherently untrustworthy?

💯

That post was not excusing Hamas or discrediting Jews. It was clearly stating facts.

It is increadible to me the lengths that certain individuals will go to to twist people's words with all kinds of accusations.

You saw fit to mention that he is Jewish, but not that he is the former controller of BBC1. Why?

It's clear that you were trying to dismiss his comments, and think that being Jewish makes his opinion less credible

That's already written in the article.

It seems not infrequent that a report from an Arab or Palestinian about Gaza or The West Bank is discredited because they are Arab or Palestinian.

I also think a Hamas minister could not be worse than Ben Givr or Smotrich, or even Netanyahu. They are planning mass murder right now.

What does him being Jewish add to the story that was missing, in your opinion?

Exactly. That's the real problem. Our licence money misused in this way does not help.

You can continue to insinuate that my statement of fact is an indication that I am antisematic and a hamas supporter but I am not. And I am not going to engage in a petty argument with you either as is clearly your intention here.

So no explanation then.

You don’t think they’re worse than Hamas, the people who paraded babies’ coffins around and then purposely returned the wrong mother’s body after overseeing the murder of all three and kept their bodies as trophies for over a year? Really?
