The Useful Idiot

UNBELIEVABLE!

Having stamped on a discussion about "Israel's ambassador says Britain has become a hotbed of radical anti-Israeli feeling" (see previous Useful Idiot items) because they said the link was to an opinion piece and NOT a News item, we found another (sympathetic) poster discovered that the Telegraph had BOTH a News item AND Opinion piece so that readers could have a discussion about the News item.

So, the poster provided the CORRECT News Item link (AS REQUIRED BY THE BBC) so that the discussion could take place. We managed to capture that post

Here is proof it was on 5Live at http://www.bbc.co.uk/dna/mbfivelive/F2148564?thread=5557544. Note that the link is to a NEWS section. (and if they determined this is a World News item then teh BBC ALWAYS moves it to the correct board to let the discussion take place)

And now Hidden!

So, even when you OBEY the rules set by the BBC they STILL ban a discussion positive towards Israel. We wonder if they are NOW saying it can't be discussed at all because two other threads related to the story exist. BUT, YOU CAN'T ACCESS THEM TO DISCUSS THE STORY. Effectively, the BBC can close down a discussion if they are so motivated by hate and prejudice.

Wew wonder about the background of the Moderators. Is there something underhand and political taking place? This needs and investigation.

UPDATE: BBC ITSELF discusses Ron Prosor as NEWS http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/7445919.stm
