The BBC Toady programme on Thursday had a story about how Palestinian "collaborators" are badly treated by Israeli state and how most of them now live in Sderot. What irritated me was the way that the fact that Palestinians who have "collaborated" with the Israelis and are now mostly living in Sderot apparently helps to explain why that town is the target for Palestinian rockets - the subtext being that it also excuses the firing of the rockets. As if that was not enough, the Israeli government was also criticised for not treating the collaborators well enough and the collaborators' neighbours criticised for negative feelings towards them. The BBC no story on Israel small enough to tell if it can be spun against Israel. Any news on the Balen report BBC?
Today I noticed the following passage in a Guardian report on the lecturers union vote to ban links with Israel:
"The University and College Union voted overwhelmingly at its Manchester conference to call on colleagues to "consider the moral and political implications of educational links with Israeli institutions, and to discuss the occupation with individuals and institutions concerned, including Israeli colleagues with whom they are collaborating"."
It seems as though the BBC and its left wing friends may now be using the word "collaborator" deliberately as a way of setting the scene. Keep repeating the lie and people will accept it would appear to be the deliberate policy.
