Maybe someone ran out of material to cut and paste off of the Hizobollah website?
Using terms like 'crap' in reference to differing viewpoints often spoils any chance of intelligent discussion.

Here's an interesting article about the media coverage of the conflict.

So basically you know nothing and are posting from the BBC and hoping that will be correct?

"The June 15 BBC Radio 3 'Night Waves' program focused on misleading media coverage of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. The program includes three guests: two BBC editors, and Professor Greg Philo of Glasgow University, who recently produced a study claiming anti-Palestinian media bias in news coverage of the conflict. (Philo is a notorious anti-Israeli ideologue, whose biggest fans seem to be John Pilger and Noam Chomsky.)

The BBC editors defend their work against Philo's claims, but the show provides no legitimate counter-voice. A prime candidate for such a counter-voice, London attorney Trevor Asserson, has produced no less than three influential and exhaustive studies on BBC anti-Israel bias (http://www.bbcwatch.com/), but Asserson informs HonestReporting that he has never been asked by the BBC to come down to a studio and appear on-air."
