More quiet reporting by the BBC

When Israel are accused of war crimes by some left-wing anti-Israel body, the BBC give the report all due publicity and use it as an excuse to insult Israeli spokesmen on The Today programme. However when the prominent human rights group Human Right Watch say that the firing of rockets into Israel by Hamas militants from theGaza Strip amounts to a war crime, the coverage is somewhat different. Just a short piece hidden away in the Middle East news section with no link from the news front pages and no radio reference that I have noticed.

Why the difference in coverage? Anyone would think the BBC had an agenda.
