I agree. For example, BBC Radio 4 "Today Program" has recently included several Israeli spokespeople who speak perfect English, very eloquestly, for several minutes, without questionning.

However, Palestinian spokespeople speak less good English, express themselves less well and are subject to questionning by the presenter.

An assault on Iraq completed. As they've already started air
assault strikes.

The thing that's really struck me over the last day or so is that Israali civilian victims of terroism now seem to rate higher in the British media than British civilian victims of terrorism. Compare and contrast the reporting of the latest suicide bombing in Israel with the reporting of the suspected ETA bombing in which 3 Britons died. Usually you can count on the British press to report any British casualties as *the* most important issue (and far more important than thousands of dead "johnny foreigners") - but suddenly Britons don't rate as much coverage in Britain as Israelis. Isn't that strange?

Of course, no-one is quite as obscure as dark-skinned victims of massive state terrorism, but that's only to be expected...

If an Israeli is killed it's Headline news, if a Palestinian is killed it's on a lot later on and a lot less details are given. They NEVER interview Palestinians for their side of the story.

I wonder if WE'LL all be called Terrorists or Traitors soon for having a different point of view ?
