BBC downplays pro Palestine demos and plays the antisemitism card.

BBC coverage of yesterday pro Palestine marches this morning has been amongst the worst propaganda yet seen.
Right, so for as much as our politicians have been abject failures in seeing things from anything other than Israel’s perspective, our mainstream media has been no better. The constant asking of that first question to pro-Palestine advocates being do you condemn Hamas? Being a blatant attempt to frame the argument rather than actually be able to stand up and speak up on behalf of innocent Palestinians who are being caught up in a genocide, that Israel is conducting on the basis of trying to rescue hostages, yet by bombing indiscriminately on the premise that Hamas hide behind human shields, they are showing no regard for Palestinians, nor actually for the hostages they purport to be trying to rescue, because unless their view of liberating them comprises of liberating them from existence, I can’t see how anyone can say a meaningful rescue attempt of any sort has been tried. Yesterday in London saw the British publics view on this situation in their biggest show of solidarity with the Palestinian people yet though, as for the third weekend in a row, people took to the streets up and down the country, half a million alone in London, but if you happen to be watching the BBC to be informed on what happened there yesterday, you might have been given a very different picture of what actually happened.
Right, so yesterday once again, demonstrations happened up and down the country, from London, to Manchester, to Glasgow as people marched in solidarity with Palestine in flagrant opposition to establishment party leaders, but the BBC, those ever so loyal, servants to establishment interests, stuffed full of Tories at the top as it is, a very different message was sent out and I’m going to focus on the London marches here because frankly I have to, Londoncentric BBC only focussed on that march in any detail, the detail being to play it down and discredit it, rather than show it for what it actually was. This morning, the breakfast bulletin on this march in London went like this: ‘More than a thousand Metropolitan Police officers were deployed across the capital to keep order as people protested against attacks on Gaza, three weeks after Hamas launched a surprise attack on Israel, killing more than 1400 people and taking 229 hostages. Within the crowds were chants of “From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free”, seen by Israel and most Jewish communities as a threat to its existence and by the Home Secretary Suella Braverman as antisemitic. Pro Palestine supporters say it is a call for freedom. No action was taken by the police over the chanting.’ The report here was Laura Trant, who had been introduced by the studio anchor after saying tens of thousands of people marched in London, I have to say I’ve seldom heard more dishonest reporting, half a million people downplayed to tens of thousands? We’ve seen the footage, we’ve seen the crowd sizes, we’ve heard from people who were there about the scale of this, how dare you minimise it.
