Israel said on Monday it will keep up executions of those convicted of spying against Israel despite the outrage of human rights groups

Israel said on Monday it will keep up executions of those convicted of spying against Israel despite the outrage of human rights groups. Protests from human rights groups, the United Nations are fervent and the BBC are no doubt reaching a fever pitch of indignation.

Oops sorry I mistyped, what I should have reported is as per Ynet:
'The Palestinian Islamist movement Hamas ruling the Gaza Strip said on Monday it will keep up executions of those convicted of spying for Israel despite the outrage of human rights groups.'


That explains why the protests from the human rights groups has been rather quiet and why the BBC are not reporting the story at all, although they do find the space to report that:
'Israeli prosecutors have charged two Israeli Arab activists with spying for Hezbollah, it has been revealed. '
The BBC are also please to be able to repeat accusations that:
'But Adalah, the Legal Centre for Arab Minority Rights in Israel, which represents the men, says the charges are false.

They allege the interrogators used sleep deprivation and stress positions to extract confessions, which both men have now retracted.

"Trumped-up accusations made in indictments have become alarmingly common practice in security cases in Israel," a statement from the organisation said.

"They aim to justify the complete isolation and use of illegal methods of interrogation against detainees, and the imposition of gag orders on their cases." '
The BBC where Israel is always guilty and Palestinian terrorists pure as the proverbial.

Yes, pure bias from the BBC as expected.
I guess with the demise of Craig this will have to me my only alternative to B-BBC now.
But, shame you don't get more comments.
