		<description>&lt;p&gt;I think it&#039;s relatively trivial. The BBC is only significant in its own eyes, nowadays.&lt;/p&gt;

		<description>&lt;p&gt;It has brought some entertaining nutters out of the woorwork, though - this from a comment at a UK Daily Telegraph blog:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;i&gt;You have been had! The BBC are past masters at disinformation. Under the pretext of appearing impartial they have refused to broadcast a request for humanitarian aid to the war-torn region of Gaza. The BBC are not fools, they knew very well what the consequences would be, and the predictable outrage has erupted in the media. It might be said that they promoted the dissent, by issuing hourly bulletins on the growing discord amongst the Guardianistas, whose hearts bleed every time every time a Palestinian rocket falls on stony ground, or an empty Israeli property - such a waste! Since dawn, there has been a stream of Marxist liberals raving, remonstrating and venting their wrath at the iniquity of the BBC and its one-sided support for the Zionist cause. Prominent amongst them was Tony Benn, the Champagne Socialist who looks down from one of his great mansions and pours scorn on the &#039;right-wing nazi patriots&#039; who dare thwart his vision of a Jew-less Holy Land and a Moslem Britain. By refusing to broadcast the appeal, which would have lasted a few minutes, the BBC has set in train a whole new debate (an industry perhaps) about aid to the stricken Palestinians which has already sucked in government ministers, pop celebrities, outrages liberal do-gooders, and has even suckered some of the Telegraph staff. I am not too surprised at the last because the Telegraph is bulging at the seams with ex and serving BBC Propagandists. As in its support of the Marxist IRA, the BBC has given its considerable world-wide support and expertise to the promotion of the Arab/Palestinian cause, and at the same time duped millions of people into believing that they actually support Israel. You have been had. Never underestimate the enemy - especially the BBC!&lt;/i&gt; &lt;/p&gt;

		<description>&lt;p&gt;Channel 4 beats the BBC hands down. Al-Jazeera English and Channel 4 are so superior to our news channels here that it&#039;s laughable.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;CBC in Canada used to be that good, but it has fallen under pressure from what Avrum Burg calls &#039;extremist right-wing Pro-Israel&#039; factions. It started happening when ultra-Zionist Asper bought up the majority of Canadian newspapers.&lt;/p&gt;

		<description>&lt;p&gt;Hi Phil,&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;That particular picture that you link to does not say &quot;We came to annihilate you&quot; in Hebrew.  It says &quot;Ismail Haniyeh is the son of a whore.&quot;  Not that that is any less reprehensible, but you probably should correct your post (or change the link), for accuracy&#039;s sake.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Quite right, it says &quot;Ismail Haniyeh ben zonah&quot;. I can&#039;t read the smaller one on the right though.&lt;/p&gt;
