"The Sri Lankan army has killed 91 people at a makeshift hospital inside a civilian safe zone in the last two days, two doctors have told the BBC.
The doctors said bombardments from the army had killed 64 people on Saturday, including patients, their relatives and bystanders in Mullivaikal.
About 87 people were injured. Another 27 people reportedly died on Friday."
And then the Sri Lankan army is allowed another rebuttal;
"The army has denied bombing the hospital, saying that Tamil Tiger rebels carried out suicide attacks."
On the BBC one Country is always guilty unless proved otherwise and that is Israel, other countries are allowed a degree of presumption of innocence.
Of course there is another huge difference between he coverage of this story and that of any similar Israeli attack. This story is Web site front page news but not the top story, if it had been Israel then it would have been the lead and every newscast would have been full of the usual suspects fulminating against Israel's iniquities.
