The BBC reporting Sri Lanka and Israel

Once again a big story breaks in Sri Lanka and the BBC report it:
"The Tamil Tigers have accused the Sri Lankan government of killing about 1,000 civilians and injuring many more during its military offensive.

The government has denied the allegations, in turn accusing the rebel group of targeting civilians. "
However the page doesn't even appear as a link on the UK news page. Somewhat different to the huge coverage of any anti-Israel story.

Interestingly the video on the BBC page is credited thus "Footage released by pro-Tamil group Media 2000/Act Now". I don't recall the BBC being so keen to credit Palestinian groups for the Pallygate style videos that they show so readily.


Whilst we look at BBC news reporting inconsistencies, here's another. The BBC hide away another report of inter-group murder in a place far away. But as it is black Africans killing black Africans and no evil Israelis are involved, the BBC don't think the British people need to know.

The BBC shilling for Islam and denigrating Israel; it's what they do.
