BROADCASTING GIANT CAVES IN TO ISRAELI PRESSURE

The British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) is to ban what they call ‘high-risk’ broadcasts after anti-Israel Defense Force calls were chanted by the stars and the massive audience

This comes after UK punk-rap duo Bob Vylan chanted ‘Death to the IDF’ at the Glastonbury Festival.

The BBC has announced that it will no longer broadcast or livestream performances deemed ‘high risk’.

The British public broadcaster faced backlash after airing a set by punk-rap duo Bob Vylan at the Glastonbury Festival, during which the group chanted protests against the Israeli military, notorious for its hyper-brutality.

The group’s lead vocalist encouraged the crowd to chant ’Death, death to the IDF’ and ‘From the river to the sea, Palestine must be, will be, free during the performance last weekend. Videos circulating on social media show the crowd echoing the chants, with some waving Palestinian flags.

BBC CRAWLS TO THE JEWISH STATE

‘We deeply regret that such offensive and deplorable behavior appeared on the BBC and want to apologize to our viewers, listeners, and in particular the Jewish community,’ the broadcaster whined in a statement released on Thursday.

The BBC noted that the band was classified as ‘high risk’ ahead of the festival, along with six other acts, but was still permitted to perform with appropriate mitigations. 

The company admitted to ’errors’ in the compliance processes and confirmed that Bob Vylan’s set has been permanently removed from BBC iPlayer and BBC Sounds.

The outlet pledged to provide on-site editorial policy support at major music festivals and events moving forward. It also announced plans to issue clearer guidance on the criteria for withdrawing a livestream.

ISRAEL’S BRITISH COPS

Avon and Somerset Police have launched a criminal investigation into potential public order offenses, saying they ’will closely consider all appropriate legislation, including relating to hate crimes.’ 

UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer has condemned the BBC for airing the performance; media regulator Ofcom said the broadcaster has questions to answer.

ISRAEL COMPLAINS OF ETHNIC CLEANSING

The Israeli Embassy in London said it was deeply disturbed by the inflammatory and hateful rhetoric expressed on stage, describing it as advocacy of ethnic cleansing.

Actually, it was a protest against the Israeli regime’s ethnic cleansing of the peoples of Jewish Occupied Palestine.

Earlier this week, the US authorities revoked the visas of Bob Vylan members following the controversial performance, citing national security concerns.

THAT WILL COST THEM FOR SHOUTING FOR FREEDOM

The duo, who were scheduled to begin a 20-date US tour later this year, have since been dropped by their agency, United Talent.

Pro-Palestinian demonstrations and a rise in anti-Israeli incidents have been reported in many countries since the start of Israel’s military operation in Gaza, where more than 100,000 Palestinians have been killed since 2023.

The conflict was triggered by the October 7, 2023, Hamas attacks, which left around 1,200 Israelis dead, with over 200 taken hostage. You can share this story on social media:

  1. Margaret Thatcher turned the BBC into the Government’s stenographer, because it kept uncovering corruption. I would say the BBC is a propaganda organ, but that would discredit Dr. Goebbels. For decades, the BBC has had many members of the tribe, whose name must not be spoken, in positions of influence. Given that the Government of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland has been Zionist occupied for almost 90 years, I suggest that the BBC isn’t really “caving” to Israel, rather it is doing what it has done for the last 40 years – following Government directives.
