British Lobby’s campaign against Press TV

Posted on January 13, 2011 by rehmat1|

On August 2, 2010 – the Israeli hasbara flagbearer, The Jewish Chronicle, had reported that the British broadcasting Watchdog, Ofcom, has accused Lauren Booth in her show ‘Remembering Palestine’ on Press TV and the reporter Yousef Al-Helou’s following remarks on June 5, 2010 episode - for being baised to Israel (and therefore, amount to ‘anti-Semitism).

Lauren Booth saying: “Israeli commandos committed a massacre of innocent civilians sailing aid ships to the besieged Gaza Strip. This was obviously a barbarous attack on civilians. One thing is certain: As Turkey buries its murdered citizens (nine) – the brave men and women on those ships, in one move, have shifted world opinion against Israeli apartheid”.

Yousef Al-Helou saying: “Israel’s piracy in the Mediterranean Sea ended with a massacre”.
Lauren Booth in her recent article, titled Lauren Booth: go go go, published in MCW News on January 11, 2011, wrote:

“Pressure had taken the form, until recently, of the usual nonsense from Zionist organizations. Letter writers, linked to the Israeli Embassy in London and its web of supporters, have been trying to use Ofcom as some kind of offshoot Hasbara body. Endless letters of complaint were sent to the broadcasting monitor, whenever Press TV, broadcast a news items shedding light on the thuggery, blackmail and racism inherent in Israeli government policy. Thus, faux ‘shock, horror’ objections to  shows like the one I present, ‘Remember Palestine’ pushed Ofcom to uphold minor criticisms. And have led to negative headlines in the ridiculous Jewish Chronicle against an otherwise excellent UK bureau. Happily, the most recent attempt to besmirch the veracity of Remember Palestine,  was so feeble,  that  Ofcom dug its heels in.”

The complaints against Press TV have the same usual Israeli hasbara (propaganda) ridiculous lies; Iranian President called for the destruction of state of Israel and a new Holocaust of Jewish people, Ahmadinejad denies Holocaust – the Zionist’ narrative of “Six Million Died” and in December 2006 Ahmadinejad hosted a Holocaust Conference which was attended by a former KKK leader David Duke (it was also attended by six Jewish Rabbis), etc. etc.

The Jewish organizations have ganged on anchorwoman of the ‘Remember Palestine’ show, Lauren Booth, sister-in-law of Britain’s former prime minister Tony Blair, who converted to Islam last year, was – she had interviewed Trevor Mosyn, a reporter, author and writer for the Middle East Economic Digest - in which Mosyn exposed British dark colonial history in establishing a homeland for the unwanted European Jews in Palestine three decades before the Nazi Holocaust (The Balfour Declaration, 1917). Watch the interview below.
