The Board of Deputies of British Jews has apparently lost the plot: the pro-Israel group demanded control of BBC Gaza coverage, according to reports.

This indicates that the rabidly pro-Israel, Zionist organisation has finally lost all grip on reality. Even the BBC’s obsession with balance cannot justify handing over any news coverage to an organisation that would only pump out propaganda.

But – well, here’s Skwawkbox:

Israel lobby group the ‘Board of Deputies of British Jews’ (BoD) has said it met the BBC with its demands for changes to its coverage of Gaza and expects them to implement these in less than a month.

The BoD’s constitution says that its purpose it to ‘advance Israel’s security, welfare and standing’, but the group still feels entitled to dictate what is fair coverage of Israel’s genocide in Gaza – though of course that word is never used and is already avoided like the plague by the cowardly broadcaster.

Despite the terror of the BBC and other broadcasters of offending or challenging the UK Israel lobby, the BoD expects the BBC to:

• commit to a review of its coverage, which is to be ‘independent’ but must, of course, satisfy the BoD
• a ‘requirement’ for the BBC never to mention anything to do with Gaza information provided from within Gaza – for example the huge numbers of deaths inflicted by Israel’s targeted bombing of children, families, hospitals, schools, journalists, medics, paramedics, emergency workers, food queues and aid workers – without qualifying those numbers by ‘informing’ viewers that the information is from a ‘proscribed terrorist group’
• demanding that the BBC translate the Palestinian word for Israeli as ‘Jew/Jews’ – Palestinians use the word ‘Yahud’ because they usually do not recognise the legitimacy of the Israeli occupation by naming it
• sacking BBC staff for a single instance of what amounts to offending the Israel lobby – a number of presenters have already lost their jobs under similar circumstances
• promising to jump to attention if the BoD or other lobby groups complain – or ‘rapidly addressing editorial breaches’, in the BoD’s Orwellian language
• ‘addressing’ the apparently unevidenced ‘serious deterioration in the health and wellbeing of Jewish [BBC] staff’ and their claimed ‘pervasive sense of hostility and isolation’ in a broadcaster where whistleblowers have accused their employer of quashing coverage of Israeli atrocities and living in terror of an angry call from the Israeli embassy – again, the supporters of Israel are the victims for supposed hurt feelings, not the hundreds of thousands being slaughtered, maimed and starved by the occupation in its efforts to purge them from Gaza
