"Children" or "Terrorists"? PMW rejects BBC’s apology

• BBC and UN accuse Israel of killing “children” in Jenin when in fact they were armed terrorists
• BBC’s libel went even further: "Israeli forces are happy to kill children"

• After broad condemnation, BBC issued a so-called “apology” – but only because the “questioning was not phrased well"
• Neither the UN nor BBC has admitted that the “children” were in fact armed terrorists

Yesterday, Palestinian Media Watch tweeted the above video that shows BBC host Anjana Gadgil stating that “the Israeli forces are happy to kill children” during an interview with former Israel PM Bennett. Gadgil also said 4 Palestinian teenagers who were killed in Jenin were “children,” citing the UN for this definition. However, PMW exposed that at least 3 of the 4 “children” were terrorists, belonging to 3 different terror organizations: The Islamic Jihad, Hamas, and Fatah’s terror wing, the Al-Aqsa Martyrs’ Brigades. Various terrorist websites posted photos of them posing with automatic rifles. These are the UN and BBC’s “children”:

In the video, which PMW is sending to the UN and to BBC, PMW invites them to apologize to Israel for defining terrorists as “children”:

To make the teen terrorists look like innocent victims, Fatah’s Commission of Information and Culture posted these 3 pictures of the teen terrorists:

In addition to PMW’s tweet critical of the BBC and the UN, many organizations sent formal complaints over the BBC broadcaster’s accusation that Israeli forces “are happy to kill children.” BBC issued a shameful so-called “apology,” justifying the faulty line of questioning and merely “apologizing” for the “language used”: "While this was a legitimate subject to examine in the interview, we apologize that the language used in this line of questioning was not phrased well and was inappropriate."

Neither the BBC nor the UN have apologized or admitted that they are creating cover for armed terrorists, and for playing a central role in the PA’s war propaganda, by calling them “children” and blaming Israel for their deaths.

While the death of a child is always tragic, the guilty ones who must be held accountable by the UN and all decent media, are the child abusing leaders of the Palestinian Authority, for indoctrinating children to fight and seek Martyrdom death.
