Whenever the BBC presents news of Jewish interest they interview (as ' experts') people who display marked antipathy to the Jews. Isn't racism illegal in Britain? Why is the BBC allowed to practice it?

I e-mailed them about this and they said that I was wrong and that just look at their articles. Of the 10 that they had on their web page 7 were anti Jewish and 2 were about something totally different with the last one not really anti Jewish but not really for them either. When I e-mailed them the second time with this they never returned a reply to me.

I don't believe freedom of thought is illegal in Britain. Racism is wrong, but you can't really legislate it out of existence in a democracy. As for the reasons for BBC's anti-Semitic slant, like most media organizations, they're run by people with liberal tendencies, and liberals have displayed a very anti-Semitic streak in the last decade or two.

I find such comments as yours slightly puzzling since many people complain that the BBC is biased in favour of Jews and Israel. That tells me that the BBC has got it about right if _both_ sides complain!

Your comment is a generalization. If you had evidence of a specific incident, I might take it seriously.
As it is, many answerers will take it as an opportunity to do some more bashing and to display their own personal prejudices.

do not confuse Jews and Israelis Jew and Israeli aren't any more interchangeable no longer all jews are Israeli, no longer all of them help Israel, and far of them even protest hostile to the Israeli authorities. Judaism ? Zionism

They're atheistic.
They usually have something bad to say about any religion.
And Jews are not a race, they are people who follow Judaism.

I just don't think it is.
