Abed Abubaker is a
terrorist supporter. He publicly celebrates the murder of Jews and justifies
the slaughter of civilians. His immediate family supports terrorism. His cousin
is an Islamic Jihad terrorist. Abed’s best friend’s father was a Hamas enforcer.
How did the BBC fawn over him and give him so much unchallenged airtime on at
least four separate occasions?
So here is a legitimate question: How many times can the BBC produce fake news or be caught platforming terrorist supporters before it justifiably gets labelled as a Hamas propaganda website?
In four separate BBC News interviews with him spread between November and February, the BBC allowed unlimited time for the Hamas propaganda to be made unchallenged:
- 24/11/2023 Five unchallenged minutes in which he describes massacres, atrocities,
soldiers shooting civilians, and babies dying from a lack of food.
- 1/12/2023 Over six unchallenged minutes in which he is free to talk about
‘Israeli occupation forces’, massacres, atrocities and pushing lies about
aid.
- 11/01/24 Seven unchallenged minutes in which he spreads stories about lack of
aid, water, ongoing massacres of civilians and how they are reduced to
eating bird food.
- 08/02/2024 Seven more unchallenged minutes in which he can say whatever he likes to
the BBC audience without fear of contradiction.
During the interviews the BBC journalists repeatedly state how important it is to hear voices like Abubaker’s – so as to tell viewers what Gazans are really living with.
Who is the real Abubaker Abed – the person that the BBC gave unchallenged time to again and again. On January 27 2023, a Palestinian terrorist Khairi Alqam slaughtered seven Israeli civilians outside a synagogue in Jerusalem. Abukaber Abed celebrat the murderous attack – and calling the terrorist a ‘hero’
And this ‘journalist’ that the BBC relies on and trusts – publicly supported and justified the killing of Israeli civilians following October 7th.
The BBC is ignoring
its own rule book. It is platforming terrorist supporters and allowing them to
spread Hamas propaganda unchallenged. The BBC is completely failing the very
public it is meant to serve.
It is well past the time that the BBC is held to
account.

What can one do to challenge the BBC about these things?
The more letters of complaint the BBC gets the better. It is also worth writing letters to the mainstream media to increase awareness of the public at large how their money is being used.
