Clash of Worlds : Britain and Palestine Part 4

Once again one can read the anti-Israeli bias of the BBC between the lines in the “Clash of Worlds” series. The series does allow the viewer to clearly see the Imam in the Muslim mosque teaching lies, hate and racism.  Another speaker in Part 4 asks, “Why are the Palestinians in tents in Lebanon, Jordan and Syria? ” The obvious answer does not appear in the film. You see, Israel and Judaism believe in helping their brethren in need, while the oil-rich Arab nations did not provide any aid to members of their faith. The provide no employment, no housing, no rehabilitation for what they call “refugees” – and they remain refugees for generations. The Palestinian Arabs in the countries neighboring Israel are being held captive by their own “representatives”.  In Israel there are no Jewish refugees – all have become equal citizens. One finds it hard to believe that this BBC film presents Palestinian arch-terrorist Zakaria Zubeidi as a “hero”.
