What sort of news service is the BBC offering the British
public? It claims to offer impartial, factual, unbiased news reporting.
Last night, I watched a BBC news report about the U.S. and U
K. military strikes against the Houthi rebels in Yemen who are targeting
shipping in the Red Sea. Anybody who watched this BBC news report wouldn't have
had a clue why the Houthi rebels were targeting shipping because the question
was never brought up. We were led to believe that they were doing this at the
behest of Iran who supply them with weapons. We heard from the former CNN
Pentagon correspondent Barbara Starr and a Pentagon official, but not from
anybody representing the Houthis.
The Houthi rebels say they have been targeting shipping in
the Red Sea that is heading towards Israel and will continue to do so for as
long as the war on Gaza continues, but this was never mentioned in the BBC news
report. They now say that because of the attack on Yemen, all U.S. and British
assets have become "legitimate
targets."
