The beeb is biased

[WTFH]

I don't watch or listen to BBC News but Ch4 News always begin any reporting of Hamas with something like "Hamas, which is designated as a terrorist organisation by the UK...". Gets a bit tedious after a while but there you go.

Are you saying that the BBC never refers to them as a proscribed terrorist organisation? Or just not as often as you'd like?

No, the BBC refers to them the same way as Ch4, although that doesn't suit those who don't like to listen.

[WTFH]

Sorry was that too complicated for you?

If Palestinians get rid of Hamas then they will have the hostages won't they?

Ok, so today, right now, how do "Palestinians" get rid of "Hamas"?
And as a bonus question, who will then defend the Palestinians if everyone with a weapon has been got rid of?

Try reading my posts I have suggested multiple ways.

Israel will look after them of course, its not like the other surrounding Muslim countries like them much except the billionaire Hamas etc leaders.


I will ask again as you avoided answering the question:

Do you believe Hamas & other terrorist organisations in the area should be eliminated?

only 409 times out of 12000 reports - try reading the findings not making tulip up, you aren't Hamas or the BBC,

So, every time a BBC presenter/reporter says the word "Hamas", you want them to follow that with "who are proscribed as a terrorist organisation by the UK"?

Tedious but if that's what you want...

Not everytime - no one has ever said that??

Just do not have a complete ban on referring to them as a terrorist group.
And where applicable apply the label as every other broadcaster does.
why are you trying to defend this?

Hamas are a designated terrorist group. The bbc refuse to acknoweldge this - unlike every other broadcaster (bar Al jezeera)

You say "the bbc refuses to acknowledge this" and yet every news bulletin that I have watched, when they refer to Hamas, at least once they will say "who are designated a terrorist organisation..."
Is that "refusing to acknowledge, or am I imagining they are saying it because you say they refuse to say it?

Try reading my posts since you refuse to answer any questions, then deflect back to shouting a question you have shouted so many times before, yet you never read the answer each time I give it. There's no point in me answering it any more, it's shameful that you keep asking, like you think you're being clever, when it's rather offensive.
But I forgive you.


How do you eliminate terrorist organisations?
How do you define who is an active member, who is a supporter, who is forced to support them? Kill them all, because that's the safest option?
The people in the US who gave money to Noraid to buy guns and semtex that killed military and civilians in the 1970s-2000s, are those people terrorists? Should they be "eliminated" too?
When is one man's terrorist another man's freedom fighter?
This idea of eliminating anyone that you don't like, where would you stop on the "slippery slope" to use the Fail phrase?

Defending what, when you appear to be misrepresenting what the BBC have been doing?

As I say, I don't watch or listen to BBC news, but WTFH does and says they do refer to Hamas as a designated terrorist organisation.

I have answered your question and others before you even asked them.

Now we are into desperate whataboutery from you.

Israel are quite clearly avoiding killing civilians where possible but Hamas and the other terrorists must go.

Lets try making it simple

Hamas are terrorists who wish to kill all the Jews and eliminate Israel (its in their constitution and their school books). Call them militants if you are the BBC but sensible people recognise them as genocidal terrorist nutters.
