Double Standards

Sorry for swearing, but can I have your views on this:

http://news.bbc.co.uk/

Top left picture of the main page.

The caption: An Iraqi soldier lies dead as US Marines board vehicles in the background.

I mean, ffs. You can't post that shit on the front page news.

Sorry hermand, I had to edit out the curse word.

Also, makes me wonder why they ask you if you're from the UK or US as you enter the site.

The BBC has become a propaganda tool for Liberalism in the UK and Europe. It is sad. It has followed the path of NBC, CBS and ABC in the U.S. They have a completely Liberal slant while all the time proclaiming that they do not.

However, the BBC is much worse than the U.S. media. I haven't heard such one-side propaganda coming from a supposed "independent" org since the old Soviet Union paper "Pravda".

You actually read Pravda?

You son of a bitch, you really think the whole french people deserves to rot in hell for the actions of a few (probably nazi [admin editted] such as yourself). THinking like this starts wars. THinking like this starts genocides. If you really do think that you're no better than all those morons bombing themselves to get free virgins in heaven and a blockbuster rental coupon.

U should be banned for this signature.

Agreed, thats a pathetic generalisation.

Oh, and to be fair, the BBC have fairly neutral views in most of their news articles. I was just disgusted at the fact I was forced upon an image of a dead soldier with absolutely no warning.

And the fact its doing what the Iraqi goverment got slated for.

I am always amused by people who sit behind a keyboard and curse and act tough in a web forum. In reality, would you speak to me like that in person or would you fear getting knocked on your ass??? You know the answer. You have to live with yourself. If it makes you feel more macho, then so be it.

Go back to France with your sisters.

dar-k

Why do you despise the French so much?

hermand

You're pathetic, you know?

Ever considered that some people dont wish to fight in this war? I'm personally fairl pro-war this time, but it doesn't mean that everyone should feel my way.

Get some common sense and intelligence. Thne please stop being a fool.

France is a fairly defencive first world country, they have an army but they tend to believe that it should only be used in self defence. Is that really so hard to comprehend?

I have common sense and intelligence. Just because you do not agree with me does not make me pathetic, you know? It was many in your country who called my President a fool. I guess, then, in your eyes I am in good company since you also called me a fool. It seems that many in the world today, who tend to lean politically left, attempt to shout down the voices of those that do not agree with them. I am here to say, today, and everyday that people like you will never succeed in shouting down the voices of people who do not agree with you. We will remain with our chins held high just as I am today. Your name calling is repugnant. You are repugnant.

I'll close this thread now.

cp, another footer like that will get you banned.
