Oxfam and Other Charities Guilty of Anti-Israelism
Andrew Roberts, author | January 26, 2009
Mark Thomson, DG of the BBC, has refused to broadcast the appeal of Disaster Emergency Committee for aid for Gaza, fearing that it would ruin the corporation's impartiality. ++ The BBC itself is actually a clear pro-Palestinian institution but several of the charities that make up the DEC, Oxfam among others, are strongly anti-Israeli and guilty of "gross ideological bias." ++ "Violence against Israelis, including deaths, are virtually ignored by Oxfam officials." ++ This is unacceptable and Thomson's decision is an entirely wise one.
