Is the BBC anti-israeli?

I think that C4 clearly leans towards left and try their hardest to make Israel look like the terrorists. Jon Snow just cuts through this guy only because of his superior linguistic skills. I mean the guy can't explain why they took out Gazas electricity because it would give away there tactics, I believe it was taken out because it's much easier to track movement at night when the majority of people stay in their homes because of the power outage. Especially if they are using their uber satellite.

Here's the interview from C4 news

Sorry guys, my mistake. I corrected it. That was what I meant though, I meant channel 4 news. I don't know why the hell I put BBC there! Maybe because I was wacthing BBC while posting

One of those subliminal things y'know. Anyway I meant C4 I guess would be the main point I'm trying to make here.

But the BBC are also very biased in my opinion.

Well what do you expect from main stream news? you go watch BBC news then C4 news and C5 news they all tell a slightly different story told the way they were told to tell it. Its exactly the same in America although in a much larger scale.

since when is critisism considered "anti-israeli"?
also, it´s not like other channels are less biased, just look at fox news and you got bias in its incarnation

Exactly what I was thinking.

several countries spending millions rescuing nationals and tourists under bombardment? too right they might be biasing their stories.

now if Israel turned to the west and said "3 days to get your nationals out before we attack again" it might be a different story.
