Comments on: Media insanity award-winner: the BBC http://fresnozionism.org/archives/832 A pro-Israel voice from California's Central Valley Thu, 08 Jan 2009 16:59:14 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.3.3 By: Shalom Freedman http://fresnozionism.org/archives/832#comment-5736 Shalom Freedman Sun, 17 Feb 2008 09:20:22 +0000 http://fresnozionism.org/archives/832#comment-5736 The BBC is notorious for its moral obtuseness- The equation of Harari and Mugniyeh is not a slip, but indicative of the values of the BBC. This is the organization which time and again has shown more understanding of and sympathy for suicide- bombers than to their victims. It has presented one- sided anti- Israel reports for years. In any debate it invariably chose as representative for the Israeli side, extreme Israeli left- wing critics of Israel. The recent Oxford Union debate came out of the same value system. What is distressing is to know that this level of intellectual and moral dishonesty is present in one of the peoples who have contributed so much to the intellectual and cultural development of Mankind. But then again another ' great people' the one of 'poets and thinkers' of 'Goethe and Kant and Beethoven' demonstrated a capacity for Evil beyond that anyone could have previously imagined.
