Eretz Israel is our unforgettable historic homeland...The Jews who will it shall achieve their State...And whatever we attempt there for our own benefit will redound mightily and beneficially to the good of all mankind. (Theodor Herzl, DerJudenstaat, 1896)

We offer peace and amity to all the neighbouring states and their peoples, and invite them to cooperate with the independent Jewish nation for the common good of all. The State of Israel is ready to contribute its full share to the peaceful progress and development of the Middle East.
(From Proclamation of the State of Israel, 5 Iyar 5708; 14 May 1948)

With a liberal democratic political system operating under the rule of law, a flourishing market economy producing technological innovation to the benefit of the wider world, and a population as educated and cultured as anywhere in Europe or North America, Israel is a normal Western country with a right to be treated as such in the community of nations.... For the global jihad, Israel may be the first objective. But it will not be the last. (Friends of Israel Initiative)

Biased, Brazen, and Contemptible

Here's the BBC's online report of the massacre of the Fogel Family:

Here's a related snide report, by Jon Donnison, a Jeremy-Bowen-in-the-making, from what I've seen of him:

Here's the BBC's arrogant, dismissive response to complaints regarding the coverage or rather lack of it  of the massacre of a  family  correction a "settler" family:

Been there before, of course, and now that Lord Patten, who has a proven track record of pro-Palestinian bias, has been shoe-horned into the position of Chairman of the BBC Trust (see http://daphneanson.blogspot.com/2011/03/lord-patten-as-chairman-of-bbc-trust.html), we will doubtless be there again.  To no avail.

Biased, Brazen, and Contemptible.

Those are among the more polite and printable words for the national broadcaster, whose disregard for its Charter and Producers' Guidelines, disdain for licence-payers, pimping of its own pet leftist agendas, and demonisation of Israel,  is now completely out of control.
