Lessons from 2008 9:42pm on 07 Jan 2009 I have to agree I am fraid with Pat G I have found recently that the BBC News and sadly newsnight has become rather biased in most of its reporting. Sadly though anyone who holds a different view to Israel is Anti Jewish not true, sadly lots of people especially those doing things that are wrong on both sides hate the truth and always try and stifle debate.

The BBC has become so politically correct its fightening, not so long ago Newsnight was held up in high esteem for its hard hitting nature, for getting to the bottom of issues, for giving guests and especially politicians a hard time trying to get information out of them and real answers, now its like a wet limp lettuce leaf.
As for Israel and Gaza why is it that Israel can do what the hell it likes and everyone turns a blind eye, it kills innocent people and despite what it says its still occupying Gaza, its coastal waters its airspace its exit and entrances, effectively starving its people to death, didnt that happen in the Poilish Ghettos? in the late 1930's and early 1940's? Didnt my Parents and Grandparents fight to stop this happening again? I am not anti Semtic I am not anti Jewish I have many Jewish friends some agree with me, what Israel is doing is wrong, and if we are not allowed to openly question it and compare it to other events in History then that is plain wrong too, the BBC and News night has indeed a duty to uphold independence and freedom of speach however uncomfortable it maybe, and to get at the TRUTH and put forward the hard hitting questions to all those involved. We all know where this will eventually end, Israel creates more radicals than it stops, the events in Gaza and Lebanon prove this time and again, until the UN or USA reign Israel in this will get worse, and in a very short time Iran will have its Nuclear Bomb and it will use it as it will say punishment for all what is happening now, and we will all pay the ultimate price for this folly, Israel needs to look back at first 1947 then at all the Land it took in 1967 give it back and try and secure a lasting peace before its too late for us all.
Sadly Newsnight seems to have lost its way and should be addressing all of this on air sadly it does not anymore. It ignores anything that is seen as uncomfortable.
