BBC Shows Pictures of Dead Palestinians But Not Dead Israelis
(Mideast Dispatch Archive) Tom Gross - BBC World TV, which was happy to broadcast Hamas-supplied pictures of dead children in Gaza almost round the clock all summer, declared: "we don't want to actually see that picture....Take that down!" as an Israeli minister showed them a picture of one of the Jewish worshippers butchered by Palestinians in a Jerusalem synagogue on Tuesday. The BBC has a long-standing (undeclared) policy of showing, often in graphic detail, pictures of dead Palestinians, but not of dead Israelis, which is why the Israeli minister held up the photo. The BBC also failed to mention that one of the rabbis axed to death was British, born in the UK. The other three were all American citizens.
