Israel - BBC bias in Tel Aviv attack

Check out the first paragraph from this BBC report about a Palestinian terrorist attack on innocent Israelis.

One person has died and at least 10 have been injured in a suicide bomb attack in the Israeli city of Tel Aviv.


Now compare how the BBC reports on Israeli attacks on Palestinian terrorists.

At least two people have been killed when Israeli forces launched a missile strike on a car travelling in the northern Gaza Strip.


Innocent Israelis merely "die" when attacked by Palestinian terrorists, but when Israel retaliates to take out the terrorists, Israelis "kill" "people", even though the second story tells you...

Emergency workers told the BBC the occupants were dressed in military fatigues and there was evidence they belonged to the Islamic Jihad militant group.


Buried at the end of the Tel Aviv story, the BBC notes this:

Correspondents say the relatively long period without an attack in Tel Aviv can in part be attributed to Israel's controversial barrier, which divides the Palestinian West Bank from Israel.


UPDATE

A reader alerted me that the BBC have already stealth edited the report on the Tel Aviv report and removed the last paragraph about the barrier protecting Israel. That's the terrorist loving BBC for you.
