BBC editor Raffi Berg has almost complete control of the British broadcaster's online coverage of Israel's war on Gaza and is ensuring that all events are reported with a pro-Israel bias, according to a new report published on 28 December by Drop Site News.
"This guy's entire job is to water down everything that's too critical of Israel," one former BBC journalist said.
Drop Site News spoke to 13 current and former staffers who stated that the BBC's coverage consistently devalues Palestinian life, ignores Israeli atrocities, and creates a false equivalence in an entirely unbalanced conflict.
Another BBC journalist said Berg plays a key role in a broader BBC culture of "systematic Israeli propaganda."
"How much power he has is wild," said another journalist.
"There was an extreme fear at the BBC, that if you ever wanted to do anything about Israel or Palestine, editors would say: 'If you want to pitch something, you have to go through Raffi and get his signoff," another journalist explained.
In one case, Berg downplayed Amnesty International's accusation that Israel is committing genocide in Gaza.
Berg chose a headline that stated, "Israel rejects 'fabricated' claims of genocide," to describe the Amnesty report and failed to post the story for 12 hours after it was written to suppress its online reach.
The journalists interviewed by Drop Site also noted that the Amnesty report was not covered on the BBC's flagship news programsāBBC One's News At One, News At Six, or News At Ten or its flagship current affairs program, BBC Two's Newsnight.
"Anyone who writes on Gaza or Israel is asked: 'Has it gone to edpol [editorial policy], lawyers, and has it gone to Raffi?'" another journalist said.
Raffi Berg, who wrote a book praising clandestine Mossad operations, wields great power to influence perceptions of Israel's war on Gaza because the BBC news website is the most-visited news site on the internet, with over 1.1 billion visits in May alone.
Israel's war on Gaza has killed over 45,000 Palestinians, the majority women and children, and flattened large swathes of the besieged enclave.
The pro-Israel bias imposed by Berg is evident in the language used to cover the war.
While stories "prominently" used words like "massacre," "slaughter," and "atrocities" to refer to Hamas, they "hardly, if at all," used them "in reference to actions by Israel," wrote Rami Ruhayem, a Beirut-based BBC Arabic correspondent.
In another case, the BBC published a story with a headline that hid Israel's responsibility for killing an entire family in a missile strike.
"Israel Gaza: Father loses 11 family members in one blast," the headline stated.

Dr. Leana Wen is calling on the Biden administration to authorize "bird flu vaccines" and inject them into "vulnerable" Americans before Trump takes office.
In July 2021, as a CNN 'medical contributor' (presumably with an undisclosed payment from someone), Wen suggested that life needs to be "hard" for Americans who have not received a COVID-19 "vaccine", and that individuals who refuse to get shots should face weekly testings.

Hang on. So Jimmy Savile's mate was terminally ill and wanted to be allowed to die. She lobbied the government to pass a law to allow her and others to die, which they predictably did, and now, she's taken a 'wonder drug' and is happy to be alive?
But the law is in place.
I feel like we've been somewhat trolled.
The ten things that make me so happy to be alive, by ESTHER RANTZEN - https://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-14230643/Ten-things-happy-alive-ESTHER-RANTZEN-wonder-drug-lung-cancer-mortality.html
Worth a watch:
Suddenly enemy of the state
A movie by Imad Karim
The film uses dystopian but also satirical narration to draw gloomy images on the topic of the modern authoritarian state, its ideologies and the loss of freedom.
Oskar Held, a member of the indigenous German minority, is caught in the clutches of the "Humanist People's Council". The consequences are debanking, hate campaigns in media, mandatory reeducation and the implantation of monitoring implants. How will Oskar Held, that "enemy of the state", ultimately decide? Bow to the pressure, or continue to remain an "enemy of the state"?

David Icke:
I am now banned from speaking at a Dutch PEACE rally this weekend on VIDEO.
This is in direct contradiction to what the government has said in a stream of court hearings challenging my now Dutch-instigated 4-year ban from most of Europe. I quote from government lawyers Pels Rijcken:
'The Minister also points out that Icke can participate in events physically, by telephone or digitally in/from the United Kingdom.'
But no longer. My speech was due to be played on a big screen at the event, but organisers have now been told in this letter that they cannot play an address from anyone banned from the country - i.e. ME.
Why are the Dutch authorities so terrified of me while others in the 'alternative' can move around the Netherlands and Europe as they like? The Netherlands exposes itself still further as a tyrannical state with an UNELECTED prime minister - a former head of Dutch Intelligence - and with its biggest party called the 'Party For Freedom' (inversion).
Its leader is 'alternative' hero Geert Wilders and one of its members is Marjolein Faber who is the Immigration Minister driving my ban. What is happening here is censorship on a scale that beggars belief.
Before you read this nonsense from the Mayor of Amsterdam it is worth noting that the Dutch government is no longer claiming that my ban is due to 'anti-Semitism' because try as they did they couldn't make it stand up. It doesn't stop this idiot, though.

The 2016 Berlin Christmas market attack occurred on the evening of 19 December 2016.
While the official investigation went out of its way to pin it on a "lone wolf", many clues point to the attack being conducted by a larger group, heavily infiltrated by one or more intelligence services.

ā”ļøā”ļø TELEGRAM CENSORSHIP? MASSIVE SHADOW BAN ON DOZENS OF CHANNELS
Telegram seems to unprecedentedly limit the growth of some political and news channels, following Metaās pathāyet few noticed.
WHATāS HAPPENING:
The "similar channels" feature has been disabled for many channels, cutting off a key source of new subscribers. Some shadowbanned channels are also missing from search results. Check if your channel is affected.
REASON:
A BBC article and "study" claim Telegram promotes "extremist content, such as anti-government conspiracies, antisemitism, or white nationalism" through "similar channels." Also, Telegram CEO Pavel Durov, under judicial supervision in France, may also face pressure to impose censorship.
ACTION REQUIRED NOW:
Demand answers from Telegram. The support team remains silent, but you can raise concerns on Telegramās bug forum. Letās stop Telegram from becoming another Meta.
Share this message to help preserve Telegram as a free speech platform.
Foam depopulation or foaming is a means of mass killing farm animals by spraying foam over a large area to obstruct breathing and ultimately cause suffocation.
It is usually used to attempt to stop disease spread.
Foaming has also been used to kill farm animals after backlogs in slaughtering occurred during the COVID-19 pandemic.Foam depopulation has been used on poultry and pigs and has seen initial research for use on cattle. It has faced criticism from some groups.
Some veterinarians have called it inhumane,along with many animal rights and animal welfare organizations who cite the pain caused by suffocation or the harm experienced by the stray survivors.
History
Foam depopulation was developed in 2006 in response to a 2004 outbreak of H5N1.[8] It received conditional approval the same year in the US by the USDA-APHIS.
In the 2015 H5N2 outbreak in the US, foaming was the primary method used to kill poultry en masse with it employed at 66% of locations. However, since 2019, foaming has increasingly been replaced in the US with ventilation shutdown, a controversial method which relies on suffocation and heatstroke after shutting off airways into a building.
In 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic caused supply chain disruption and meat packing closures. This led to a backlog in slaughteringāleading to many locations using foaming or ventilation shutdown to mass kill farm animals outside of the typical slaughtering process

Alrightā¦.yāall still with me? Letās recap.
*We have antitrust laws that are in place to protect the public from criminal collusion.
*In 1993, the NCRPA was enacted to reduce legal barriers (especially antitrust concerns) for companies working together on research projects usually under the guise of public health.
*In 2019 the BioMap Consortium was formed.
Gosh, if I didnāt know better Iād think they are preparing to respond to another fake pandemic. Thank goodness we got all of those companies shielded. Can you imagine how dangerous it would be for us useless eaters if all those companies had to navigate worrying about antitrust violations?!?!? They would never be able to respond to all the emerging threatsā¦

Also in Belgium the number of admissions to emergency department has risen sharply after 2021: "Almost unmanageable!ā
According to a report by the Department of Effective Care of the National Institute of Health and Disability Insurance (RIZIV), the number of admissions to the emergency department of hospitals in Belgium has increased sharply between 2021 and 2023.
Every year, almost one in five Belgians (18.9 percent) uses emergency care.
Since 2021, the number of emergency departments has risen sharply, by an average of 8.13 percent per year.
For comparison: there was a slight decline in the corona year 2020. "But in 2021 we are up almost 11 percent. The surprise came in 2022, when we increased by another 18 percent compared to 2021. It was almost unmanageable "Dr. Tania Desmet, head of the emergency medical Service at the Ghent UZ, told Artsenkrant, the Belgian magazine for general practitioners and specialists. Since 2023, growth has slowed down.
Dr. Goedele Beckers, medical director of AZ Turnhout, also notes that the use of emergency care continues to increase.
Desmet and Beckers cite the lack of general practitioners, the waiting lists for specialists and the increased attention to psychosocial well-being as possible explanations.

The law is presented as a new way to efficiently tackle illegal content, and in particular, provide new ways to ensure the safety of children online, including by age verification (āage checkingā).
Opponents, however, reject it as āa censorās charterā designed to force companies to step up monitoring and censorship on their platforms, including by scanning private communications and undermining encryption.
Although the general impression has been that only large corporate services will be affected by the law, in reality requirements and penalties for them are higher, but Ofcom made it clear that āvery small micro businessesā are also subject to the legislation.
But another way that concrete harm can be done to the online ecosystem, while declaratively seeking to prevent harm, is now emerging with the example of small and community sites, where those running them are unwilling to take on the massive risk related both to the fines, and criminal responsibility in case they fail to āmoderateā according to the actās provisions.
