The BBC…Recruiting for the Islamic State?

This is a barf alert, maybe this is an exaggeration of the original headline but not far off.

Here is the original BBC story and following is the fine website, "biased BBC" which sifts out the biases of the BBC, a governmental taxpayer pounds (dollars) supported network from what I understand:

As always, it seems one can not watch the video outside of the UK; TOS had an article on this video as well. Perhaps the analysis below can fill in some gaps.

The BBC…Recruiting for the Islamic State?

The BBC has just broadcast a piece of Muslim agitprop that would not look out of place on an Islamic State website intent on whipping up Muslim anger and discontent in order to feed the narrative of Muslims under siege and an Islam under attack by the West.  The BBC is feeding the recruitment of Muslims to terrorist organisations with a hugely dishonest film that is deliberately shaped to mislead and feed into the Muslim grievance culture that leads to ‘radicalisation’.

The title of the film, United States of Hate: Muslims Under Attack, immediately tells us what picture the BBC intends to paint..it is a picture that extremist groups like Cage and MPACUK and the MCB would be proud of.

America is, the BBC informs us, in the grip of ‘anti-Muslim hysteria’, naturally it is all Trump’s fault, and we have to ask, apparently, ‘Is it normal to label a whole communtiy as terrorists?‘  The BBC of course has no problem labelling the whole of America (sans Muslim) as irrational, Islamophobic hate-mongers in this film.  And does ‘America’ label a ‘whole community’, and does it label them ‘terrorists’ or just radicals who seek to impose Islam upon the US?

The title might be hyperbole but I see their point.

Another BBC story today and actually some good pictures of Rolling Thunder and the story itself is not that bad but the headline, never mind that some would agree with it:

Though, on the other hand, some are saying the Rolling Thunder Memorial Day Ride turned into a Trump rally. Maybe in that way, the headline is not that far off.
