Israel urges boycott of the BBC

due to the BBC's anti-Israel bias.

The Foreign Ministry is under pressure from Israeli citizens to resume its boycott of the BBC and to withdraw credentials from its reporters due to "one-sided" reports on the war in Lebanon, Israeli diplomatic officials said Wednesday.

For seven months during a wave of Palestinian violence in 2003, Israeli officials boycotted BBC news programs, declining interviews and excluding BBC reporters from briefings. The boycott was ended after the BBC appointed a panel to oversee its Middle East coverage and to ensure it would be unbiased.


And look how well that worked out.

They should kick the BBC reporters out, complain to the UK government and the UK government should stop funding the BBC propaganda machine.
