While it’s not news that the BBC has promoted antisemitism and has an anti-Israel agenda, sometimes the coverage is beyond shocking.
Last week, BBC Trending presenter Rania Attar highlighted a Twitter post by Palestinian-British journalist Abdel Bari Atwan. In his tweet, Atwan praised the terror attack in Hadera that killed two Israelis, and referred to it as the “Hadera operation.” Additionally, Atwan tweeted a link to a video in which he expressed joy over the March 27 killing of Israelis.
Atwan is a regular contributor to BBC Arabic.
The BBC gives a platform to an antisemitic glorifier of terror and has some explaining to do.

David Miller, the former University of Bristol professor who was fired after harassing Jewish students, has lost an appeal to be reinstated.

In October, University of Bristol fired David Miller after he called for “the end of Zionism” and spread conspiracies about British Jewish students. At the time, the university issued a statement saying that Miller’s conduct was unbecoming and that his employment would be “terminated with immediate effect.”

“Support David Miller,” a group representing Miller, announced on Wednesday that the appeal had failed. Responding to the news the following day, Campaign Against Antisemitism (CAA), an education watchdog, said the appeal decision vindicates the concerns of Jewish advocacy groups about the sociology professor’s treatment of Jewish students. CAA had previously planned to sue the university over the issue.

-----
Miller’s firing last year concluded a months-long investigation of his activity, which began making news in 2018 when he mocked Jewish students for feeling unsafe on campus — blaming their fears on “propaganda which they have been schooled with.”

The Union of Jewish Students of France (UEJF) has condemned antisemitic messages scrawled in the bathroom of the law building at Paris Nanterre University.

Photographs of the graffiti shared by UEJF show a Star of David scrawled on yellow tile with “MEDIA” written in black permanent marker. Others said “Hitler, you’re the best,” and invoked the antisemitic “qui?” (who?) slogan, which was launched after a retired French general insinuated in a television interview that Jews control the media, according to Le Figaro Étudiant.
-----
The student-focused imprint of the French paper noted a 2019 survey commissioned by UEJF, showing that 45% of Jewish and non-Jewish respondents having witnessed antisemitism at school. Antisemitic graffiti — showing up at Sciences Po Paris, University of Grenoble, and University of Créteil — was found to be especially common.

At a daylong conference titled “Antisemitism and Professional Football: Challenges, Opportunities, Network,” organized by the Central Council of Jews in Germany, the World Jewish Congress and the Deutsche Fußball Liga (German Soccer league, or DFL), participants looked at best practices — from history education to increased encounters with Jews — and renewed their commitment to tackle the problem.

“Antisemitism was and is more than ever a danger in the here and now,” Carsten Cramer, managing director of the famed Borussia Dortmund team, said at the conference.

With their diverse fans, football leagues “are in a unique position to initiate discussions that benefit society as a whole,” WJC Executive Vice President Maram Stern said in a statement ahead of the event. Many clubs have already launched good initiatives, Josef Schuster, president of the Central Council, said in announcing the conference.

Father Manuel Musallam, a prominent Palestinian Christian priest, was quoted as wanting Palestinians to use "weapons" to defend Jerusalem - and he was not speaking metaphorically.

Speaking as a member of the Committee for the Defense of Islamic and Christian Sanctities, Musallam said today that "every weapon that does not ululate for the sake of Jerusalem, the Al-Aqsa Mosque and the Church of the Nativity, is suspicious, and we must defeat it."

He added, "By normalization, the Arabs will sign with Israel the defeat of the Islamic conquest and the fall of Umar’s Assurance, and that Palestine is no longer the land of the Arabs, and that Jerusalem is not the Arab capital."

Musallam has a history of antisemitic statements. In a 1993 rally in Jenin, where the Oslo Accords were framed as a means to eventually wrest all of Israel from Jews, he received a seven minute standing ovation after saying:

From the gate of Al-Aqsa the herald cries:
"The Crescent and the Cross are the marks on my hands!"
God is greater than the enemies
Who occupy the Dome of the Rock and crucify us.

But he's just anti-Zionist, right?

In a pre-recorded video address broadcast to attendees at the Jerusalem Post London Conference, Ronald S. Lauder, president of the World Jewish Congress, discussed a wide range of topics, including antisemitism, the war in Ukraine, the Iranian threat to Israel, and the importance of maintaining the unity of the Jewish people.


Lauder suggested that ‘Jew-Hatred’ is a more apt and accurate term than antisemitism. “Anti-Semitism” is a holdover from the 19th century,” said Lauder, and it has lost its meaning. No one cares when they hear Anti-Semitism. From now on, let’s all call it what it really is – the hatred-of-Jews, or Jew-Hatred.”
