Recent revelations show it's betrayed its Charter principles and is a disgrace to journalism
by Melanie Phillips
He goes on to report that a BBC Arabic regular, Ahmed Qannan, who described a gunman who killed four civilians and an Israeli police officer as a “hero”, appeared 217 times on the channel between February 2024 and the April 2025. Introduced as a journalist from Gaza, he appeared both on BBC Arabic radio and Gaza Today.
Ahmed Alagha, who described Israelis as less than human and Jews as “devils” appeared 522 times between November, 2023 and April, 2025, across BBC Arabic television, radio and Gaza Today. He was consistently introduced as a journalist.

But the BBC’s journalistic calumnies over Israel are more than just bias. They represent the utmost malevolence towards Israel expressed through its systematic channelling of terrorist propaganda — an attitude displayed towards no other people, country or cause on earth — and, on some occasions, unvarnished bigotry against Jewish people. The BBC has a fundamental problem with the Jews.
And this has had consequences. As producers of Britain’s cultural mood-music, the BBC has been drip-feeding poison about Israel into the nation’s psyche for years while ignoring, downplaying or sanitising its attackers in Britain as well as in the Middle East. It is thus directly responsible for contributing to the tsunami of Jew-hatred being suffered by Britain’s Jewish community, as well as ramping up the already hysterical hatred of Jews in the Muslim world. The BBC has Jewish blood on its hands.
What needs to happen, in the first instance, is the sacking of at least two senior executives, Munro and the CEO of BBC News, Deborah Turness. *But that won’t solve the problem. BBC executives, like many if not most of its journalists, believe that their left-wing mindset is the political centre-ground and thus embodies balance, fairness and truth. Anyone who challenges that mindset is therefore axiomatically regarded as an extremist or hopeless partisan and is self-righteously ignored.
The BBC embodies a hermetically-sealed thought system. It has betrayed its core Charter principles of truth and fairness and is a disgrace to journalism. The case for de-funding it is now overwhelming.
*Update: soon after I posted this, Deborah Turness and the BBC’s Director-General, Tim Davie, resigned.

Melanie Phillips: Why Israel must win | The Brendan O'Neill Show
Melanie Phillips: Dead Israelis disturb the narrative. They upset the narrative. By which I mean that it's not just a view, it's become a kind of-- not even just a cause, it's a kind of article of faith among the progressive West that Israel was created by the Jews through Western guilt over the Holocaust, being parachuted in to a country called Palestine and uprooting the indigenous people of Palestine who've been there since time immemorial and taking over and booting them out and then oppressing the rest who remain. And who wish to expand their territory as a result.
Every single part of that is untrue. It's a lie. It's a falsehood, okay. But that is the narrative. The narrative is of oppressive Israelis and oppressed Palestinians. And therefore, because in our victim cultural world, if you are a victim and you are oppressed, you are given a moral free pass for anything that you do. Anything that you do that's bad, cannot be-- you cannot be morally responsible for it. It must be the result of what's been done to you.
So, Palestinian terrorism has been regarded as, okay we don't-- we don't approve of it, we can't bear violence but nevertheless it's resistance, it's understandable given the despair that they are in.
And conversely, anything the Israelis do as the oppressors cannot ever-- they cannot ever be victims. They cannot ever be victims; they can only be oppressors.
Suddenly one has, suddenly, people with this mindset have been faced with the appalling visual proof that the people and the cause they've supported resulted in acts of barbarism, of a kind that nobody ever thought they would see again after the Holocaust. And it's been perpetrated by people that they have broadly supported and a certainly a cause they have absolutely supported. And suddenly the cause turns into something which is genocide.
But they've been accusing Israel of genocide, which is amazing considering the population of Gaza and the Palestinian territories has increased by what, three times, four times since 1948 when Israel was created? That's some genocide. But put that to one side.
So, it's to serve the narrative and they can't have that. Now, why can't they have that? Why can't they say, okay it's a bit embarrassing to have to admit that the cause I've pinned my idealism on for the last 30 years is actually fake, but nevertheless, I have to agree, um, uh you know, uh, right.
Now, why can't they say that? And my view having been part of that way of thinking for a long time and certainly having had all my friends and colleagues as part of that way of thinking for a long time, and studied them up close, my view is that they can never say this to themselves because it's not simply a question of saying they're wrong, their belief system is based on the fact that every single thing they believe encompasses and embodies moral virtue.
They believe in the betterment of society, they believe in creating a better world, they believe in standing up for the oppressed against the oppressor, they believe in justice against Injustice, they believe in in all these wonderful things. And consequently, anybody who stands up and says anything against them, against any of these wonderful things is not only wrong but evil and has to be stamped out as basically an enemy of humanity. Now, we see this in our domestic politics, victim culture and all of that, over a range of domestic issues.
But it is absolutely part of their moral personality. What they dread more than anything else, the worst thing in the world that could happen to them, is to take a position which in their minds would make them a right-winger and therefore evil, or evil and therefore a right-winger, because all evil comes from the right and all right wingers are evil.
And consequently, faced with this situation that they saw on October the 7th unfolding in front of our horrified gaze, they are faced with the challenge in which they say to themselves, you know am I supposed to junk what I've believed? That will make me an evil right-winger. And that's so terrible to them because they think that will disintegrate their entire moral personality.
So, they're going to find a way of dealing with this. So, we hear, for example, on the one hand the silence. The silence from so-called "feminists" who have told the entire male population of the world they are intrinsically evil because they're all intrinsically potential rapists and therefore, you know, "the patriarchy" and all the rest of it you know.
Untold numbers of men are unable to have proper relationships with women because of that. All those feminists are silent. Well not perhaps all, perhaps some have come out. Silent when faced with the appalling rapes of women in that October the 7th atrocity. And the way they deal with it is by saying saying, I don't believe it. I don't believe it. Regardless of what we've all seen and heard.
So, there's those people who are silent. And then there are people who try to invert it. They say, well, I mean it was terrible, yes and of course I abhor these brutal things, but nevertheless, but, but, but...
As soon as you hear the "but," you know. The cause, the cause. And when you say to them, as I have done over decades, what are you talking about, the cause? What cause of despair? You're talking about the fact they don't have a Palestine state? They have been offered a Palestine state over and over again from the 1930s onwards. The last offer consisted of approximately 95% plus of the territory they were demanding, and their reaction has always been to refuse and to start murdering Jews again.
And when you say that to them, they say, no, no that's not true, that's not true, and they bring up a whole load of chaff, verbal chaff. In other words, their reaction is, it's not true, it's not true, I'm not believing what I'm seeing in front of my eyes even.
Because they cannot ever tolerate this idea that their moral personality was based on a monstrous inversion of morality.
Narrator: it was.
This NatCon thing is a dress rehearsal for the fully Orbanized Tories as a party of opposition isn’t it? The far right repeatedly referring to themselves as being centre right is the biggest dog whistle going. Oh and yes, it’s this Melanie Phillips:
Thugs and agitators are piggybacking on a crisis caused by liberals
A searing analysis from Melanie Phillips that uncovers the reasons for Britain's current rioting debacle, including facts that many other journalists have not discussed.
The violence on our streets today, as disgusting and inexcusable as it is, is the result of a failed policy and social experiment: mass immigration. While I am no friend to criminals and racial bigots, I am no friend to those who wrought this disastrous policy upon Britain, either.
Many of us warned that constant demonisation of critics of mass immigration only served to empower the extremists. One wonders whether that was deliberate: the act of marginalising criticism of mass immigration so that extremists would become enraged, thereby allowing supporters of mass immigration to dismiss their opposition entirely.
While the new government justifiably seeks the punishment of thugs, it must recognise that its support of uncontrolled immigration is the biggest cause of division and unrest in this country. Millions do not want it. Millions never asked for it in the first place. Millions have consistently voted against it.
When the British public discovered that gangs of Pakistani Muslim and British-Pakistani Muslim men were collecting white English girls in multiple cities for rape, gang rape, kidnapping, and even torture, and that police and social services aware of these accusations kept silent for fear of stoking racial division, the powers that be were extremely lucky that we did not see mass riots like we're seeing today.
This woeful story has left a lasting disgrace upon this country, and is an exact representation of why mass immigration and multiculturalism are profoundly foolish, reckless, failed ideas.
After at least 20 years of discontent over the rapid increase in immigration and total transformation of our country without consent, this violence is the inexcusable, yet predictable, result.
