Gilad Atzmon: Press TV Under Attack
Britain Cannot Handle the Truth
To tell the truth about Israeli barbarism is a breach of impartiality. The Guardian and the Jewish Chronicle reported today that, Ofcom, the UK broadcasting standards body, has ruled that Iranian-backed Press TV's coverage of the Gaza flotilla incident breached guidelines on impartiality.
You ask yourself why?
Their coverage of the Flotilla wasn't pro-Israeli enough.
The regulator said the station had not shown due impartiality during a broadcast on June 5th which dealt exclusively with the events surrounding the interception by Israeli commandos of the pro-Palestinian convoy off the coast of Gaza.
The Jewish Chronicle reports that During an episode of a current affairs show Remembering Palestine, presenter Lauren Booth discussed the flotilla with studio guests and participants of the convoy. Ofcom said the show had started with "a pro-Palestinian song set to anti-Israeli/pro-Palestinian imagery".
Ofcom is absolutely right, Booth should have thought about it, and played Hava Nagila along with the images of Israel executing 9 peace activists in International waters. Such an act would bring to light the cheerful aspect in Israeli murderous zeal. It would also cement the cultural continuum between the IDF's crimes and Jewish cultural heritage.
