2. Lenin’s Tomb reminds us of this episode.
"What happened to BBC correspondent Orla Guerin just days after Mark Thompson had his cosy tete-a-tete with that obese blood-drenched old brute Ariel Sharon.
"Before Thompson took up his position as Director General of the BBC, the Guardian had reported on the ferocious pressure being exerted on news organisations by the Israeli government, including complaints about individual reporters:
The Israeli government has written to the BBC accusing its Middle East correspondent, Orla Guerin, of anti-semitism and "total identification with the goals and methods of the Palestinian terror groups".
"Orla Guerin’s offence was to run stories not just about the grief of Israeli families who had lost family members to suicide bombers but also stories about the grief and suffering of ordinary Palestinian families. As one blogger put it at the time:
Guerin’s real sin, of course, is to show some sympathy for the victims of the Israeli bombing (that’s enough to brand her a “terrorist”).
"Within days of Thompson meeting Sharon, Guerin was sacked as BBC TV Middle East correspondent and transferred to Africa.
Sharon had some strange friends.

ED VAIZEY, the UK CONSERVATIVE Party Culture Minister reveals himself to be a Zionist Jew when he says (Reaction to BBC Gaza appeal row ):
"The trouble with broadcasting an appeal from a war zone, is that there are two sides to the argument - and that's what I think we're seeing here.
"That's why I think the BBC should be allowed to make the argument that it wants to preserve its impartiality on the issue."
Sack Ed Vaizey!
