The British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) is spending an enormous sum of money in a frantic effort to try and hide the fact that its coverage of the Arab-Israeli conflict is heavily biased in favor of the Arab side.
According to reports that are certain to have dismayed senior management at Bush House (the BBC?s headquarters in London) ? who understand better than most how exposure of their cover-up efforts will only fuel suspicion against them ? a lawyer is working to get a 20,000 word document about the BBC?s standard of reporting made public.
The lawyer, Steven Sugar, is believed to be spending a fortune himself in court fees in his effort to unmask the BBC.
Many believe that the overwhelmingly pro-Arab-at-Israel?s-expense attitude that exists throughout the British Isles is attributable largely to the prejudiced coverage prevalent among journalists in the UK.
As Britain?s longest established and most influential electronic media source, the BBC ? whose reporters give some of the nastiest and most unfair coverage of Israel ? is regarded as a key culprit.
Great Britain has long been embroiled in a love affair with the Arabs, and the BBC has a sordid history of championing the cause of those seeking to destroy the Jews.
The corporation?s Arabic Service is considered especially prone to Israel-bashing as it caters to the tastes of its ? obviously ? Arab audience.
When it comes to the land-issue at the heart of the Muslim-Jewish conflict, the BBC?s World Service has for decades been openly unreceptive to the historically-provable Jewish claims to the land of Israel while embracing and propagating the unfounded Arab assertions that the land belongs to them.
