I cannot imagine my childhood without Stuart Hall, Jimmy Savile, Rolf Harris, Huw Edwards or Gary Glitter. Corrected it for you. Savage comment! Yet another utterly ridiculous and pointless comment Gary Glitter appeared on both BBC and ITV and also on other TV channels including foreign ones, and his records were played on radio stations world wide. Stuart Hall worked for both BBC and ITV (Granada TV) I guess you are as good as saying that the BBC purposely or deliberately employs pedophiles and sexual abusers, and here was me thinking this was a serious politics and current affairs board with grown ups. Sorry - its just a stupid comment - childrens playground

The BBC has called the events of last Saturday "A Massacre" and they have called what happened as "Murder", but its not good enough for some people. Some people want the worlds MOST RESPECTED news organisation to be one sided, to take a particular side in this long running conflict.The BBC is not aligned to the British government ( of any political persuassion ) and neither should it be, ever. Every day, someone, somewhere is outraged that the BBC does not take their particular side Who wants that? - all I have seen are requests that the members of terrorist organisation be described as terrorists when they carry out terrorist attacks. Like the Israelis?

Oh dear, a play on words. A report in the Guardian says that 1500 bodies of Hamas fighters were recovered inside Israel. Given that is around the number of Israeli deaths, the matter should have ended there. Instead, full of vengeance, the Israelis started the murder of innocents and the obliteration of Gaza. Really? Yes Really. Do you deny that what the Israelis are up to is against various international laws?

Well, they seem to, and also facilitate their activities if the reports of the BBC supplying a car to pick up teenage girls for Russel Brand are correct. Their statue of Eric Gill must denote their culture don't you think?

Just rapists and gropers. Not poofy paedo's. In English, for plurals, we just add an S. No need for the apostrophe.

So the biggest loss of life of innocent Jewish Civilians since the Holocaust with scores taken hostage and your 'solution' is for Israel to just go along with it.. I don't think you are being serious..

So we now have a situation where the Right wing populists are complaining that our BBC is too pro Hamas or pro Palestinian.
and at the same time pro Palestinian protesters daube the BBC HQ in London with red paint because the BBC is too pro Israel.
Sounds about right

Most normal people know that the Beeb is left wing, the only people claiming otherwise are extremist lefties for whom it will never be left wing enough.

I don't think you are being serious.. Putting words in my mouth there. The Israeli action is illegal and many war crimes have been committed. Your attitude is rather black and white: if you don't support the Israelis you must be on the side of Hamas, and that is not the case. Both sides have committed atrocities but what the Israelis are doing is beyond belief. The Israeli actions bring to mind one of many atrocities carried out in WWII - Lidice anyone.

This is exactly the point. People like you are suggesting that there is some kind of equivalence - to the extent that you are lying about history. I can assure you that the Germans did not suggest to the population of Lidice that there were 2 routes that they could use to leave the town.. If you want to support Hamas or whoever go ahead - if you just want to demonise Jews go ahead - but please stop with the crass rewriting of history.

If you want to support Hamas or whoever go ahead - if you just want to demonise Jews go ahead - but please stop with the crass rewriting of history. Why are the two routes out not very safe then? If the Israelis want to let the Palestinians get to safety they must stop bombing the routes. They have been putting obstacles in the way of the civilians leaving since the bombing started. You are really getting carried away. Calm down and start thinking. To make legitimate criticisms of the Israeli actions does not equate to supporting Hamas. I, however, am in total sympathy with the Palestinian people who are caught up in Israel's outrageous behaviour. In mentioning Lidice I am in no way rewriting history and am in no way suggesting it is totally comparable to what is happening now. But, let's just look at the history: Heydrich was killed and the Germans retaliated by killing the menfolk, deporting the women and children and raising the town to the ground. Fast forward to October 7th and Hamas carried out mass killings to which the Israelis retaliated by obliterating many areas of Gaza, killing (not only men) and maiming thousands while forcing hundreds and thousands to leave their homes, probably never to return. Sound familiar?
