The BBC's bias on war reporting

The BBC headlines are all Israeli "child murder's" . Since most people only read or scan the headline the BBC's anti-Israel job is done.

If you follow through to the article below more biased headlines you discover that:

1) Islamic Jihad terrorists were successfully killed in counter battery fire due to their murderous attempts to fire rockets to kill anyone is Israel they can.
2) The Israeli's don't deny the event, but point out this happens when you have to return fire against terrorist activity.

What most worrying is the BBC spin on this event, that is quite frankly bigoted.

The pound in your pocket

"We used to think that you could spend your way out of a recession and increase employment by cutting taxes and boosting government spending. I tell you in all candour that that option no longer exists." James Callaghan

“The trouble with theoretical economists is that they don't understand that when you have a deficit, you can only finance it by borrowing, and you've got to persuade people that it's worth lending money to you and that they'll get their money back... there's no way of escaping it.” Dennis Healey during the 1976 Stirling Crisis.

"Lenin is said to have declared that the best way to destroy the Capitalist System was to debauch the currency. By a continuing process of inflation, governments can confiscate, secretly and unobserved, an important part of the wealth of their citizens ... Lenin was certainly right. There is no subtler, no surer means of over-turning the existing basis of society than to debauch the currency. The process engages all the hidden forces of economic law on the side of destruction, and does it in a manner which not one man in a million is able to diagnose." John Maynard Keynes, 1920.

"To preserve [the people's] independence, we must not let our rulers load us with perpetual debt. We must make our selection between economy and liberty, or profusion and servitude." Thomas Jefferson, President of the United States of America,1801-1809.
