Israel's critical timing - from start to finish 5:48pm on 06 Jan 2009 The coverage of Israel's war on Hamas by the BBC is so unbelievably anti-Israel, pro-Hamas that it's simply disgusting. The very asking of the question "will this be the turning point in the war" with respect to the unfortunate striking of a school and the deaths of children there makes the question a rhetorical, self-fulfilling prophecy: the BBC WILL guide its coverage to make sure, just as it did in the "massacre" at Jenin, a fantastic creation of the imagination of the Palestinian PR machine, aided and abetted by the likes of the BBC and other "news" organizations.

I sincerely hope that the BBC will make more concerted efforts to remind its readers and viewers of 8 years of terror inflicted upon Israelis in the Negev desert, people who only want to live in peace.

You need only answer one question to resolve any questions of coverage of the correctness of the Israeli action: "Would Israel have unleashed its military on Gaza if Hamas would have left it alone?" The only answer is "no". Israel is too busy building wealth and life; Hamas is too busy building institutions whose only goal it is to maintain their own power by whatever means necessary, including keeping their own people as hostages to their theology of hate of Israel and of Jews. Hamas has no place in a civilized world, and I hope for everyone's sake that the people of Gaza wake up and rise up against their thug masters.
