BBC are back to making pro Israel headlines as ceasefire ends.

BBC bias is back in force as the blatantly pro Israel headlines return following the end of a weeklong ceasefire.
Right, so the BBC, they’ve come in for some heavy criticism for their coverage of events in Gaza, their choice of language in relation to Israel versus that of Gaza and you know the sort of thing I mean here, Israeli’s get killed whereas as Gazans ‘have died,’ Gazans get evacuated instead of blatantly displaced, or forcibly transferred. Israel is defending itself rather than committing genocide, we know the way these things get presented and we also know many media outlets have been rinsed by the public who are more aware now of this situation in the Middle East to an extent better than ever before thanks to alternative and independent media utilising social media to unspin the narratives being set by mainstream sources and expose what they could and should be saying if it wasn’t for the fact they want to present a narrative rather than just report the events as they are happening.
Well with the ceasefire now over, we’re back to business as usual at the BBC but with their narratives, their headlines not having changed, still making these mistakes, still offending so many people that Israel is being treated differently to Palestine, people are more angrily calling out what they see as an absolute disgrace, and two headlines over the last couple days in particular have encouraged more disdain and disgust from the British public.
Right so, BBC headlines, much like a lot of our mainstream media have come in for criticism in how they are presenting events and it’s the choice of language that causes the most offence, not only because of how they are choosing to present the news, with a blatant underlying bias in the way they do so, but it’s dishonest as well.
Let’s start with this one here, where in the wake of Israel beginning to pound Gaza once more on Friday morning, beginning at 5am our time as they did, later that day the BBC ran the headline: ‘Hamas run health ministry says 178 killed in Gaza as fighting resumes.’ For a change, they’ve used the words killed, but they haven’t explicitly said 178 Gazans there. The bigger problem with this headline, is that they felt the need to say Hamas run health ministry. By doing that, they’ve implied that the health ministry, being Hamas run, with Hamas being a terrorist group as far as this country is concerned, if they are reporting the casualties, why should we believe the word of terrorists on this? Of course they’ll say a big number, why should we believe it? It offers a narrative that this is something we should all take with a pinch of salt, yet the BBC still ran the story, so if that is what they want us to think, why report it? Well they’d be accused of a lack of due impartiality if they didn’t cover casualty rates on both sides, but where they’ll quite credibly say something like Israeli health ministry, giving the implication that this is the government speaking and therefore we should believe what you’d expect to be true and accurate numbers, the same cannot be said of those numbers in Gaza.
