Imagine if:
Can you imagine what would have been on the BBC news website today if a team of Israeli commandos had infiltrated Gaza four years ago, killed two terrorists, and taken a third terrorist prisoner? Can you imagine what would have been on the BBC website today if Israel had then held that prisoner in total isolation for four years and refused all access by any third parties including the International Red Cross. Do you think that this story would be on the front page of the BBC's news coverage as well as the lead story on the Middle East news page?
Unfortunately, the story is slightly different for today is Gilad Shalit’s 24th birthday. He was kidnapped by Palestinian terrorists in a cross border raid from the Gaza Strip in June 2006. He has been held hostage by Hamas ever since with almost no contact with the outside world. He is also denied visits from the International Red Cross, which would ensure his good health. I can see no mention of Gilad Shalit's birthday on the BBC news site let alone on the news front page.
BBC - You disgust me!
Thanks to Henry Wood at Biased-BBC for the concept.
