Islamic Terror in Kenya? Not According to the BBC
PJ Media ^ | 9/21/2013 | Zombie

Posted on 09/23/2013 8:47:14 AM PDT by rktman

While a horrified world watches the images coming out of Kenya in the aftermath of the massacre at a Nairobi mall perpetrated by Islamic fundamentalists, another less bloody but just as morally reprehensible atrocity unfolded online: the sickeningly biased coverage of the attack produced by some mainstream media outlets determined to provide cover for the jihadists.

The BBC’s lead story this afternoon was almost a study in journalistic malfeasance: an archetypal example of how left-leaning Western journalists will violate their own consciences — and the basic principles of reporting — in their relentless quest to hide the truth.

Such bias happens every day, and complaints about it happen just as often, but the sheer volume and speed of partisan reporting makes it difficult to highlight a single example. Even so, let’s pause for just a moment and dissect this typical specimen of ideological media spin.

The article under discussion can be found here — at least for now. Since media outlets often delete articles which they later find embarrassing, I can’t guarantee it will be online forever, so to preserve the evidence I took a screenshot, which you can see here.

Sections of the screenshot are pasted in below as illustrations.

As usual, Zombie does an excellent job. For more reporting and exposes by Zombie, go here:

Some reports may not be suitable for all as they can be quite revealing/disturbing. But they show the disgusting lean of the liberal/all inclusive left wing crazy people in and around san fran nan's home town. Seems like she fits right in as far as the crazy/delusional aspect goes.

Maybe capitalist shopper derangement syndrome was behind it and there was no “hate” involved? Don’t they have some sort of background check in kenya for possessing firearms? They need to tighten up that issue.

The report I saw on the BBC this morning made it quite clear that the terrorists were singling out non muslims.

BBC might even be less truthful than ABCNNBCBS!

BBC has done a lot of this, there was a stabbing in a prison this year, it was related to Muslims. Daily Telegraph reported it was Muslims, did the Beeb? No.

BBC story: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-humber-22685382 (find the word Muslim here?)

Compare to Daily Telegraph that while, it is not prominently mentioned, it is in there, see the last paragraphs:

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/terrorism-in-the-uk/10083364/Prison-warden-stabbed-in-attack-inspired-by-Woolwich-murder.html

These are the same stories with the same date, May 28, 2013.

This came in the wake of the murder in Woolwich of the soldier.

The above comparison speaks volumes.

Other BBC watchdog sites:

I thought decades ago, the BBC was the place to go for neutral reporting. When people listened more to shortwave radio. Now it seems to have been corrupted and/or politically correct.

The BBC is an Islamicist propagandist network. Probably even moreso than Al-Jazeera.

The world does not want to deal with the muslims as it does not want to deal with it’s own sin. The coverup of adultery is rampant and IMHO, maybe the Lord is using these folks who still do not believe in homosexuality to prod them. Doesn’t seem to be working though. The world marches deeper and deeper into Tresspasses and the deadness.

“The BBC is an Islamicist propagandist network. Probably even moreso than Al-Jazeera.”

Some entity or person or group often in the back ground funds many so called non profits for their benefit. Does BBC fall into the semi/quasi non profit area?

BBC is I’m rather sure, funded by taxpayers over there because I hear people from the UK gripe about their reporting and saying “We pay for it”, a bit like NPR here from what I understand.

LOL! Shortwave radios. If it ain’t on a twitter feed or some islamish asshat doesn’t post it on facebook the younger folks would never know. I guess we’re showin’ our age. A young couple came to visit and my wife was showing off some of her prized possessions and mentioned an object she has that used to belong to Dale Evans. You know, Roy Rogers etc. The youngsters were like, “Who?”. LOL!

I don’t know about that.

BBC shortwave is still around: http://www.bbc.co.uk/worldservice/programmeguide/

Family Radio which was Harold Camping’s station from Ocheekobbee Florida as well is stills strong and save his prophesying, I think there programs are decent: http://www.familyradio.com/shortwave/ in many many languages for around the world.

Radio Deutsche Welle http://www.dw.de/

Radio Netherlands http://www.rnw.nl/english

Radio Nippon (Japan) http://www.shortwaveschedule.com/index.php?station=447

It’s all still good. This is just a small sample of what is out there.

In the days of the Iron Curtain, maybe World War II as well, don’t know, it was the way people got their news.

I have a humble but modern Emerson shortwave radio and Radio Shacks still sell Shortwaves.

Anyone who relies on the LSM for “news” is asking to be lied to.

This was an obvious case of jihad, like Fort Hood. Hasan stood up n court and admitted it and the government still pretends it wasn’t terrorism.

Speaking of Radio Netherlands, this is amazing, they have a video and doesn't the guy look a lot like Obama, then you watch the video, get a good glimpse of him at the end and it does look like a stockier slightly taller Obama. http://www.rnw.nl/english/video/what-about-men <--- Please cut and paste to see video, I had to watch it to make sure it isn't Obama.

One other reason they go ahead and include terrorism, Islamic, al quads, etc at the end is so search engines and collators will pick it up and dilute legitimate stories on the subject.

I don't think we should ever make the assumption that these slime balls even have consciences.
