    So the hot-topic is this : The BBC, is it BIASED?

    I would say it is.

    Look on the front page; they’re still hammering global warming and renewable energy.

    The BBC’s John Simpson has been favouring the readers of today’s Daily Mail with his current reading matter. Simpo especially recommends a new book of essays, “Point to Point Navigation”, by Gore Vidal. This is the same Gore Vidal who published an essay claiming that the 9/11 terrorist attacks on New York and Washington were part of a conspiracy instigated by the Bush Junta.
    Simpo says: “I like Vidal’s world view: he has a fierce, uncontaminated sense of what’s right and wrong.”
    Perhaps this may help us to understand what’s wrong with the type of people who run the BBC.

    Insurgent leader ‘held’ in Iraq
    A key leader of an al-Qaeda linked insurgent group has been arrested in Iraq, according to media reports.

    So, if he’s been arrested he’s held, not ‘held’.

    Thanks so much guys for what you’re doing, especially about the Anti-American stance.

    I’ve written the Editors about bias against the Iraqi war several days ago regarding reporting only the attrocities of the terrorist against innocents.

    For several days I watched as they did not report one positive story about American and British forces in Iraq either capturing or killing terrorist, insurgents, or Al Qaeda.

    They finally added the story about the ‘insurgents’ captured as they put it in quotes.

    I asked them what did the BBC report on WWII against the Nazi’s? The only way people can be fully informed is to have the entire truth about the war.

    I’d recommend reading http://iraqthemodel.blogspot.com/ for a look at two Iraqi brothers hoping for a new, free and democratic Iraq. They report a balanced look from an Iraqi perspective and are pro-victory for America, Britain and Coalition forces.

    I sent the Military link to BBC as well showing them that daily our troops capture and kill anywhere from 20-100 terrorist, militia, criminals, Al Qaeda a day.

    But that is not all they’re doing. Our country has poured in up to 22 billion dollars for reconstruction efforts to supply clean water, electricity, thousands of schools, hospitals, medic emergency units around the country, and vaccines for every single child in the country.

    Over 300,000 Iraqis have been trained for military, police, medics, nurses, civilian and government conract jobs.

    Our country has done everything from building parks and recreation to installing sewage treatment plants and cleaning garbage off of streets. They’ve sponsored Civilian leadership councils in all the Iraqi provinces and leading cities, even down to the smallest of towns.

    Many Iraqis even in the most hotly contested areas are now joining Americans in the fight against Al Qaeda and old Baathist regime holdouts.

    Plus, the gloves were finally taken off on all sides. Forces now go after Shia and Sunni. This has made a huge difference and now sectarian violence is dropping, as a result so to are the daily kills in Baghdad.

    Here is the US Multi-National Forces in Iraq page, that help shine light on what is truly happening.

    http://www.mnf-iraq.com/index.html

    Just a few days ago they had reports of you Brits helping us out!

    Now here are the Press Releases:
    http://www.mnf-iraq.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=10461&Itemid=128
    In the last three days there have been 123 terrorist captured and killed.

    Now imagine if the BBC were reporting this balanced information?

    Look at all the pictures to from the Military side. Notice they’re helping children, women, civilians get their lives back together. They’re rushing to save lives of infants and Iraqis.

    But this does not fit into the Biased BBC’s anti-war position. Therefore they do not acknowledge we’re winning hearts and minds of Iraqis. And we’re also freeing a people long oppressed by Tyrants.

    I asked the BBC do they think only Europeans have a right to freedom?

    The BBC has only reported One single story that I’ve seen from our progress the entire week. That story is posted on the MNF-I press release above.

    I am not sure if they posted it due to my nagging or not. But I hope they do more of it. Because people need to hear the whole truth.

    Americans are not hateful, bloodthirsty and we surely do not want to rule the world.

    Thank God Tony Blair has stood by us along with the Aussies and now the Canadians who recently elected a Conservative PM.

    Thanks

    I think it has always been the case that if you have equipment that is capable of receiving and displaying tv broadcasts then you are required by law to have a licence.

    You can own a video/DVD recorder without a licence as long as you can’t display the broadcast. There is a grey are over monitors attached to video recorders used just for displaying VHS video streams if they are also capable of receiving broadcasts. A friend of mine had some hassle years ago with the LA over this but ‘got away’ with it because he had no arial and the video was not plugged into anything but the monitor.

    A PC that can receive broadcast signals and display, i.e through a tv card, them needs a licence. IIRC a PC that downloads content and displays them does not. Won’t be long before it does though.

    How exactly they plan to collect the licence fee from mobile phone holders is anyones guess. Hopefully the impossiblity of collecting these fees will cause the end of the licence. Yes, I know, it’s a nice dream only.

    From ynetnews.com:

    Palestinian infighting breaks out, despite unity talks
    Infighting between Hamas and Fatah continued Saturday afternoon when gunmen stormed the campus of the pro-Fatah Al Quds University, and shot and wounded a student council member from Fatah, a Palestinian security source said.

    There was no immediate claim of responsibility for the Gaza shooting.

    A few hours earlier, in the West Bank, Fatah gunmen had shot at the convoy of a Hamas minister, the first factional violence since Palestinian unity talks began a month ago.

    Officials from both sides said Wasfi Kibha, minister of prisoner affairs, was unharmed in the shooting near Tubas, a town near Nablus. The incident sparked a gun battle in the area between Hamas and Fatah members in which one person was lightly wounded, Hamas sources said.

    Meanwhile the BBC tells us how Olmert planned the war against Hezballah months ago, and how the IDF is using ‘human’ shields…

I contacted them, told them I was the original author, the BBC read the original work, agreed that I was the original author not Sir David. As I was not a media personality or celebrity they did not feel it was appropriate for me to take part. The BBC did a weeks programming on the work but did not have the original author.

    What was not done was to read the other 200 articles I had produced. I did not think climate change was entirely man made neither do I think it is a problem, it is a symptom. Neither do I think it is the greatest environmental challenge. I just wanted to deflect some of the lunacy of the war against Iraq and try and get some focus on the environment.”

    “Tories new campaign to Loose the next election:”

    The problem with all political parties these days is that their policies are based on BBC news output.

    Watching Robin Aitkin on 18 Doughty Street last night left me in no doubt that the BBC hold such power that they can destroy any politician that does not see their world view. David Cameron is another spineless leader, who does not listen to the public but prefers to take aboard any half witted control freakery policy which may get him sypmathetic headlines from the BBC.

    Because of this “fawning” he cannot see that the public at large are begining to doubt all this “manmade” global warming hysteria. And most of all if the “middle classes” begin to suffer through high green taxes they will turn on him in droves.

    What the “Conservatives” need is a leader who has the guts to have principles and stick by them. The writing is on the wall – but the politicians in their cosy world are blind. It will come back to haunt them.

    Life in BBC La-La-La Land:

    […]

    Ever since Hamas came to power, some Palestinians have been concerned that the Islamic movement would enforce a strictly Islamic interpretation on the society.

    However most people say there has been little discernable change.

    Analysts say Hamas has been too busy dealing with the international community’s economic embargo, imposed because of Hamas’s refusal to recognise Israel, to impose an Islamic agenda such as banning alcohol sales.

    But there are now fears that the book ban could be the beginning of a more radical programme.

    […]

    Contrast and Compare with The Real World:

    http://www.dailyherald.com/business/story.asp?id=287471
    […]

    About 45 Internet outlets have been bombed since Dec. 1, according to figures from Gaza’s Central Police Office. The attacks are occurring against a backdrop of intense infighting between Fatah, the main faction of the Palestine Liberation Organization, and Hamas, the Islamist party and militia that has grown into the Palestinians’ dominant political force. The street clashes have led to general lawlessness.

    “Gaza society tends toward conservatism, and some people are suspicious of the Internet, but the attacks on Internet cafes come in the context of general chaos,” said Isam Younis, director of Gaza’s independent Al-Mizan Center for Human Rights. “Simply, there’s an absence of law.”

    A group called the Swords of Islamic Righteousness has claimed responsibility for the attacks. In a leaflet distributed at Al-Azhar University last month, it said it attacked Internet cafes “which are trying to make a whole generation preoccupied with matters other than jihad and worship.”

    The group also claimed to have blown up the car of someone who played his stereo loudly. And it has firebombed pharmacies it suspects of peddling narcotics and recreational drugs, police say.

    Green tax won’t help the planet or Tories

    “Some of those dissenting voices were on display in The Great Global Warming Swindle, a powerful programme broadcast last week. Channel 4 is to be congratulated for not being intimidated or bullied out of transmitting the documentary: it is difficult to imagine today’s BBC having the courage to assault a doctrine so entrenched in politically correct opinion”.

    Mr Cameron deserves more than the benefit of the doubt for his attempts to widen the appeal of his party and change perceptions of its motives. But he is running risks with these proposals: Labour may portray him as wanting to increase taxes on hard-working people by penalising those who spend their money on holidays for their families. Furthermore, there are now signs that the so-called “unanimous consensus” on climate change is disintegrating. Mr Cameron may be about to learn that the danger inherent in following political fashions is that they can change very quickly.

The fact that Cameron has decided to join in — at the moment when the whole fad is becoming increasingly exposed — is an indication of how weak the Tory leadership has become.

    Allen, who claims that he pays no attention to reviews or box office grosses, is running out of audiences and financial backing. He once scored regular critical hits with films such as Annie Hall, Manhattan and Hannah and Her Sisters, but in the past decade his movies have lost their cachet.

    When Allen looked abroad for help the BBC came to his rescue and funded most of Match Point. The corporation also put up £500,000 towards the £2m needed for Scoop, but instead of a hoped for cinematic release last year it went straight to DVD.

    Exactly. It’s the leading story on the international front page. Chavez throws a temper tantrum after Bush ignores him, as is expected from a grown-up, and the Beeb is all over the “firebrand lefty” moron.
    Take a look at the ridiculous map they provide on the right hand side – “Latin America tours: Bush vs Chavez”, the point of which is what exactly? It appears that Bush won’t lower himself to the level of Chavez’s childish rants. The BBC, however, try as hard as they can to elevate his position and to give space to his vacuous message.

    Also, it seems that Bush is responsible for “losing” South America.
    http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/americas/4861320.stm

    It is one of the most important and yet largely untold stories of our world in 2006. George W Bush has lost Latin America.

    And..

    For his part, President Bush even suggested that the United States had no more important ally than… wait for it… Mexico.

    Maybe he has a point, but think of a BBC story about, say, global warming that contains the sneer levels reserved only to Boosh:
    For their part, climate scientists even suggested that the global warming felt around the world is caused by… wait for it… CO2 emmisions.
    Can you tell the difference between the Beeb and Liberal Larry anymore?

    No doubt we can now expect a string of hard-hitting, investigative programmes from the BBC, delving into the murky business of recycling, exposing the lies, corruption and incompetence that runs through the programme, like letters in a stick of rock?

    No, I thought not.
