Any reporting on the BBC?

On Saturday two girls, one an eight-year-old Bedouin, were killed and 10 more people injured by Syrian mortar attacks on villages in Lebanon. I cannot see this attack and details of the deaths of two children anywhere on the BBC news website. Can anyone disagree that if these children had been killed by the Israeli army this would not be headline news?

Is there any other explanation for the disparity in coverage, other than the BBC being institutionally biased against Israel. If only there was an independent report into this possibility that we the public could see...  Who said Balen Report?

Let's be honest, if the Balen report cleared the BBC of bias against Israel then they would release it, the fact that they haven't done so does somewhat point to the report's conclusions not clearing the BBC.

granted the deaths of children aren't mentioned but you couldn't have looked that hard.....or did you look at all, and hope that in bending the truth you hoped that no-one would check?

Well duh! As you say there was no mention of the children's deaths, doesn't that prove my point. Can you imagine the BBC not reporting the death of a single Palestinian child? I am so fedup with your picky comments that ignore the essential truth. Please just go away.
