BBC can't do enough for Israel

Ok, here's a copy and paste quote from the Jewish Chronicle:

"Israel accuses BBC of paying for Vanunu


ISRAEL AND the BBC were locked in a furious row this week after Jerusalem accused the corporation of lying, breaking Israeli law and of maintaining a hostile campaign against the country. The network strongly denied the allegations."


Now search the BBC's news website for any report on Israel's pressure on the Beeb. It won't take long because they haven't reported it. Meanwhile back in the JC the editorial criticises Israel for handling the PR side of the Vanunu case so badly. The editorial doesn't condemn the excrutiating cruelty of the Zionist regime towards Vanunu; just its handling of the media. Still there's a funny joke on page 10. Consider the following headline:

"Racism is rife " in Israel



Oi gevalt! How could that be? Well, the apartheid laws help but so does the fact that the police have different ways of dealing with violence depending on whether the accused is Jewish or Arab.
