BCC coverage of the attack on a football pitch in the Golan Heights has been intentionally misleading.
The BBC's evening news entirely ignored the fact that those killed by the blast are 12 Syrians, not Israeli citizens, and that for decades the Syrian population in the Golan has been forced to live unwillingly under an Israeli military occupation.
I suppose mention of this context might complicate the story Israel and the BBC wish to tell – and risk reminding viewers that Israel is a belligerent state occupying not just Palestinian territory but Syrian territory too (not to mention nearby Lebanese territory).
It might suggest to audiences that these various permanent Israeli occupations have been contributing not only to large-scale human rights abuses but to regional tensions as well. That Israel's acts of aggression against its neighbours might be the cause of "conflict", rather than, as Israel and the BBC would have us believe, some kind of normal, pre-emptive form of self-defence.
The BBC, of course, chose to uncritically air comments from a military spokesman for Israel, who blamed Hizbullah for the blast in the Golan.
Daniel Hagari tried to milk the incident for maximum propaganda value, arguing: "This attack shows the true face of Hizbullah, a terrorist organisation that targets and murders children playing soccer."
Except, as the BBC forgot to note, in 2014 Israel infamously targeted and murdered four young children from the Bakr family playing football on a beach in Gaza.
And much more recently, video footage showed Israel striking yet more children playing football at a school in Gaza that was serving as a shelter for families whose homes were destroyed by earlier Israeli bombs.
Doubtless other strikes in Gaza over the past 10 months, so many of them targeting school-shelters, have killed Palestinian children playing football – especially as it's one of the very few ways they can take their mind off the horror all around.
So, should we – and the BBC – not conclude that all these attacks on children playing football make the Israeli military even more of a terrorist organisation than Hizbullah?
The BBC next went to Jerusalem to hear from diplomatic editor Paul Adams. He intoned gravely:
"This is precisely what we have been worrying about for the past 10 months – that something of this magnitude would occur on the northern border, that would turn what has been a simmering conflict for all of these months into an all-out war."
So there you have it. Paul Adams and the BBC concede they haven't been worrying for the past 10 months about the genocide unfolding under their noses in Gaza, or its consequences. A genocide of Palestinians, apparently, is not something of significant "magnitude".
Only now, when Israel can exploit the deaths of Syrians forced to live under its military rule as a pretext to expand its "war", are we supposed to sit up and take notice. Or so the BBC tells us.
The trial of former army lawyer David McBride, a brave whistleblower who told the truth about war crimes in Afghanistan starts today.
If convicted @MurdochCadell could face life in prison.
We condemn the prosecution of David McBride.

The UN High Commissioner for Human Rights has finally admitted that Israel is committing war crimes:
"The collective punishment by Israel of Palestinian civilians is also a war crime, as is unlawful forcible evacuation of civilians".
The UN human rights chief said Gaza is a "living nightmare", where Palestinians “have been suffocating, under persistent bombardment, mourning their families, struggling for water, for food, for electricity and fuel”.

I want to speak to the massacre now taking place before our eyes in Gaza.
We call for an investigation of the Netanyahu regime’s war crimes as well as the role of Biden and US leaders in aiding and abetting them. And above all, these crimes must stop now.
#Gaza#CeasefireNOW
We will be marching for a ceasefire on Saturday, not in competition with Remembrance weekend, but as part and parcel of it.
We are remembering all those who have been killed in war, and we are trying to prevent more human life from being destroyed.
"Thousands of children killed cannot be collateral damage.
Pushing a million people from their homes & concentrating them in areas without adequate infrastructure is forced displacement.
Severely limiting food, water & medicine is collective punishment."

Despite all credible press freedom and human rights organisations branding the US @StateDept use of the Espionage Act against Assange as “a frontal assault on freedom of speech and civil liberties” the Biden Administration continues its pursuit.
UK govt must block extradition.
Today, I am thinking of human beings in Gaza buried under the rubble.
I am thinking of their joys, dreams, hopes & fears.
I wonder, if the dust ever settles, whether opponents of a ceasefire will look back and reflect on the cost of their inhumanity.
We need a ceasefire, now.
I find nothing less morally or philosophically interesting than pontificating on how the traumatized prisoners of a horrible concentration camp should have conducted themselves once they broke free of its confines. As far as I'm concerned everything that happened on that day was the result of generations of Israeli abuse, the British decisions which made it all possible, and the American backing which has kept it going.
Israeli policies created Hamas. I don’t mean this in the usual “Netanyahu boosted Hamas to sabotage peace and undermine its more moderate rivals” sense, I mean it in the "Those who make peaceful revolution impossible will make violent revolution inevitable" sense. If you stomp out every possible peaceful avenue of resistance, naturally you’re going to see the rise of factions which favor violent resistance.
One of my most formative experiences in understanding this conflict happened in 2018 when I watched Israeli soldiers firing on protesters with sniper rifles and live ammo. B’Tselem explicitly denounced this as unlawful. There’s nothing that could possibly make such a thing okay, and it was a very clear illustration of the way Israel has cut Palestinians off from all the normal pathways toward peaceful resolution.
I said when all this started that I believe the Hamas attack will ultimately be a net negative for Palestinians, but that I can’t in good conscience “condemn Hamas” because nobody can articulate a positive direction that Palestinians should be taking. The fact that all peaceful avenues of resistance have been cut off is not the fault of the Palestinians, and it’s not the fault of Hamas. It’s the fault of the Israeli government.
Hamas is just what you get when you create an intolerably abusive apartheid state which keeps millions of people in a concentration camp whose inhabitants are cut off from basic human needs. Hamas isn’t the disease, it’s a symptom of the disease. The disease is an apartheid settler-colonialist project which cannot exist without endless violence, warfare and abuse.
UPDATE:
"UNICEF has been able to contact only a few of its humanitarian staff in the Gaza Strip.
The situation in Gaza is horrific.
We say it again: We demand an immediate humanitarian ceasefire & safe access.
The killing or captivity of any child is an outrage. It must stop."
