Jeremy Bowen’s Interview with Gaza Aid Chief was Shameful

There was no excuse for the BBC to follow Israel in treating the head of UNRWA as though he is aligned with terrorism. This kind of craven journalism just makes Israel’s job of genocide easier.

Cruel Britannia: British Complicity in Genocide
