Turkish film translation "erases" Israel from Brad Pitt epic from The Commentator

'Turkey's version of World War Z starring Brad Pitt is reported to have removed references to Israel, instead labelling the Jewish state, "Middle East"'

Interesting that Turkey have managed to erase any references to Israel from that film, meanwhile all over the Muslim world people would love for Israel itself to be erased.

Java's last synagogue demolished as U.S. students visit on religious pluralism tour from Washington Times

'Beth Shalom, Java's only synagogue, was demolished in May after being sealed off by Islamic hard-liners since 2009, Freddy Istanto, the director of the Surabaya Heritage Society (SHS), told the Jakarta Globe on Saturday. He said it was uncertain who destroyed the building.'

But Israel is an apartheid state? All over the Islamic world, non Muslims & the wrong kind of Muslims are being discriminated against and even killed, meanwhile the world says & does nothing for fear of being labelled Islamophobic.

More on the plight of Jews here in The Washington Times but definitely not on the BBC, whose pro Islam line gets stronger every day. http://m.washingtontimes.com/news/2013/jun/18/javas-last-synagogue-demolished-us-students-visit-/

The sickest sentence in that report was this:

'Diah Ariani Arimbi, dean of Airlangga University's School of Literature, said all was not lost on the trip, because the students were still able to learn "about how the residents form a pluralist and democratic community."'

Destroying a place of worship of a tiny minority community - very pluralist indeed.

An obstacle to peace the BBC won’t tell you about from BBC Watch

'As long as the BBC continues its campaign to shape audience perceptions by censoring coverage of real obstacles to peace such as the indoctrination of the next generation of its rejectors, BBC coverage of the Middle East cannot comply with its professed standards of accuracy and impartiality and it will not fulfill the "Public Purpose " defined in its charter of building "a global understanding of international issues". '

Do read the whole article and realise just how biased against Israel and pro the Palestinians the BBC is. The BBC's bias is deliberate and calculated; designed to provoke sympathy for the Palestinian people and hatred for Israel & by extension Jews.

An interesting update

Further to my piece on the conviction of people for the murder of a football linesman I received this comment from Alex:

'The first names are reported in the Dutch press. Also notable was the fact that the name of the team that kicked the linesman was the Buitenboys. "Buitenlander" is Dutch for foreigner. So much for integration.'

Well he's right about Buitenlander and DutchNews.NL reports that:

'El-Hasan D, 51, was jailed for six years while his son Yassine, 16, was given 12 months in juvenile detention, two suspended.

The other suspects, aged 16, 17 and 18, were given 24-month sentences, six suspended, for their parts in the attack. The youngest defendent, Daveryon B, 15, was given 30 days in youth custody, 17 days suspended. He was only guilty of attacking the keeper, the court found.'

Leaked U.N. Report Outlines Iran Sanctions-Busting, As IAEA Details “Steady” Nuclear Progress | TheTower.org

'Iran is making "steady progress" in expanding its nuclear program and international sanctions do not seem to be slowing it down, the U.N. nuclear agency chief told Reuters on Monday… "There is a steady increase of capacity and production (in Iran's nuclear program)," Amano said in an interview. Asked if international punitive steps aimed at making Iran curb its atomic activity were slowing it down, he said: "I don't think so … I don't see any impact."'

But not on the BBC who I believe not only want a nuclear Iran to be able to oppose Israel but may actually want an attack by Iran on Israel.

The idiocy of the “two-state solution" - a history lesson many should learn from before debating with me

'After the 1967 war, Israel accepted UNSC resolution 242, under which Israel would give back lands it had occupied to its neighbors in return for peace treaties that would guarantee "secure and recognized boundaries." The clear intent of the resolution was that Israel would give back some of the land, but not necessarily all of it, particularly because the pre-war boundaries were not 'secure'.'

Fascinating protection of convicted by BBC

Back in December there was a rather nasty incident in The Netherlands when a football linesman was kicked to death by a group of teenagers and one adult. What is interesting today is that whilst the juveniles' names I believe cannot be reported there is no such restriction on the name of the adult convicted. The Telegraph manage to report the adult as being 'Hasan D'. The BBC report names no names, why?

The Telegraph further report that:

'Only three of the defendants turned up in court to hear the verdict, an attendance that described by Mrs Nieuwenhuizen as “disrespectful”. “The worst thing for me is that they never admitted what they did,” she said.'

The BBC don't report this but do have this really odd passage:

'The BBC's Anna Holligan in The Hague says amateur teams have since introduced a new code of conduct in the hope that such an incident will never happen again.'

A code of conduct was needed to stop people kicking match officials to death? Really?

Yet more Barack Obama news that the BBC won't report

Another CNN bulletin:

'Older and younger Americans don't agree on the immigration bill currently before the U.S. Senate, but a small majority of Americans overall favors the bill, according to a new CNN/ORC International survey.

The poll also indicates that more than six in 10 say border security rather than a pathway to citizenship for undocumented immigrants should be the bigger priority.

According to the poll, 51% say they support a bill that would attempt to increase border security and create a pathway to citizenship for many undocumented immigrants, with 45% saying they are opposed to such a measure.

People 65 and older oppose the bill by a 17-point margin, while younger Americans tend to favor it.

The survey was conducted June 11-13, with 1,014 adults nationwide questioned by telephone. The survey's overall sampling error is plus or minus three percentage points.

Find out more about the poll on CNN's new morni ng show, “New Day,” at 6 a.m. ET on CNN.'

 More people think border security should be a priority than a pathway to citizenship, I'm sure the BBC won't want to report that.

More Barack Obama news that the BBC won't report

Another CNN bulletin:

'A growing number of Americans believe that top White House officials ordered the IRS to target conservative political groups, according to a new CNN/ORC International survey.
In May, only 37% of the public thought that the IRS controversy led to the White House, with 55% saying that agency officials acted on their own without direct orders from Washington. Today, that number has increased 10 points, to 47%, virtually the same as the 49% who believe the IRS agents acted on their own.

Congressional sources say that interviews with IRS workers so far have found no political conspiracy or ties to top White House officials.

The poll was conducted June 11-13, with 1,014 adults nationwide questioned by telephone. The survey's overall sampling error is plus or minus three percentage points.

Find out more about the poll on CNN's new morning show, “New Day,” at 6 a.m. ET on CNN.'

The BBC will no doubt continue to protect the Obamamessiah and not report such news.

Have these people not heard of real-time reporting or indeed proper financial accounting systems? Is nobody really keeping track of losses of this size?

Pet Shop Boys: Apartheid Israel is "a caricature"

'In a statement published on the Pet Shop Boys website, member Neil Tennant states:

"I don't agree with this comparison of Israel to apartheid-era South Africa. It's a caricature. Israel has (in my opinion) some crude and cruel policies based on defence; it also has universal suffrage and equality of rights for all its citizens both Jewish and Arab. In apartheid-era South Africa, artists could only play to segregated audiences; in Israel anyone who buys a ticket can attend a concert. Neil x"'

BBC News - TV licence fee excuses revealed

The BBC have this jokey piece about excuses for not paying the TV licence fee. Of course there's no mention of the correct reason -  because I refuse to pay for the BBC's hideously biased output. I wonder how many non payers take that political stand.

Nigella Lawson in happier times

I hear that Nigella Lawson is having a difficult time of it at the moment, this weekend's story in The People was rather disturbing.

I know that I've posted this piece of video before but I think it worth a repeat, as Nigella talks dirty..
