Imagine if (part ..)

Imagine the BBC joy and wall-to-wall coverage if Israel had been accused of using chemical weapons against Hamas 'militants'. The Israeli ambassador would be ritually (and metaphorically) disembowled on the Today Programme, Ron Prossor would be harangued by Jeremy Paxman and the BBC coverage would detail every allegation in great detail. Meanwhile the United Nations would be in uproar as resolutions condemning Israel were passe and a full 'impartial' investigation was planned.

Contrast that with the complete lack of interest by the BBC or the United Nations in the news that photographs

'show PKK fighters killed by chemical weapons used by Turks have been confirmed by German experts, according to a Der Spiegel report, Thursday.

The German newspaper reported that the evidence puts added pressure on the Turkish government.'

Once again there is one rule for Israel and quite another for other countries, especially Islamic ones.
