The BBC closing down the Israeli side of the story

You have to admire the BBC for their gall in presenting this piece. The headline seems to be missing a word 'Witnesses cast doubt on Israel's convoy raid account', and that word would be 'biased'. Why on earth would anyone trust the word of pro-Palestinan activists? People who support, whether directly or indirectly, the terrorists and murderers that are Hamas?

Oddly the BBC do manage at the end of this piece to mention that:
'...Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak ordered the border crossing between Egypt and the Gaza Strip to be opened.

The Rafah crossing has been closed since 2007, although special medical cases are occasionally allowed through.'
Strange that Egypt has closed its border with Gaza but escapes BBC and world condemnation whereas Israel has no such escape; why the double standard?

Rafah has only been closed on the surface - it is the main underground tunnels route into Gaza, with Egypt pretending not to know about it.
