“Sorry” seems to be the BBC’s most-used word these days. But after this many apologies, we have to ask: Why does this keep happening in the first place? 📌 They apologized for calling Israeli hostages “prisoners.” 📌 They apologized for spreading lies about the Al-Ahli hospital blast—when it was Islamic Jihad’s rocket, not Israel’s. 📌 They apologized for broadcasting Hamas propaganda about fake “massacres at aid sites.” 📌 They apologized for running a disgusting article accusing Jews of spitting on Christians. 📌 They even apologized for a documentary narrated by the son of a Hamas official—but only after the damage was done. And that’s the pattern: The damage is always done. The mobs are already angry. The protests already violent. Then—only then—they apologise. Meanwhile, they keep giving airtime to voices calling for Jews to be burned “like Hitler did.” They let their “international editor” Jeremy Bowen claim Israel bombed a hospital—only to find out it was a Hamas lie. Did he retract it? No. He said he didn’t regret it. Since October 7th, BBC has breached its own editorial guidelines over 1,500 times. Most of those breaches? Smearing Israel. And still, anti-Israel voices cry that the BBC is too pro-Israel. Seriously? Let’s be honest: You don’t “accidentally” platform hate this often. You don’t repeatedly spread lies this severe unless the bias is systemic. This isn’t journalism. It’s propaganda in a press pass. And people are paying for it—with their lives. Apologies don’t un-radicalize mobs. They don’t bring hostages home. They don’t undo the damage. At this point, these aren’t mistakes. They’re the BBC’s standard operating procedure. For shame.
