The lie keeps going around the world and around again, and that’s clearly all that the BBC cares about. Not truth. Not accuracy. Not fairness. Just demonizing Israel for the international left and the global jihad.
“BBC updates page still promoting ‘14,000 babies will die in 48 hours’ falsehood,” Jewish News, November 13, 2025 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):
The BBC has provided additional information on a page featuring its video of a senior UN representative incorrectly claiming that in Gaza “14,000 babies will die in the next 48 hours unless we can reach them”, following a Jewish News request for clarification by the broadcaster.
In May, Tom Fletcher, the UN’s Humanitarian Chief, told the BBC that 14,000 babies in Gaza would die in a two-day period unless UN aid could reach them. The claim was made headlines around the world.
However, when the BBC subsequently asked for clarification on the figure, it was directed to an Integrated Food Security Phase Classification (IPC) report which stated something very different – that 14,000 children aged 0-6 were at risk of severe acute malnutrition over the course of a year – not 48 hours – if food aid was not received.
Jewish News found yesterday that a video of Fletcher making that claim was still available on the BBC News website – without any update as to the inaccuracy of his statement.
After Jewish News contacted the BBC, the corporation confirmed that “we have added a note to the relevant page, making clear that the figures were later clarified.” While the update does link to the BBC news story which shows that Fletcher’s claim was inaccurate, it does not specifically mention that inaccuracy, but manages to add a statement from the UN spokesperson which avoided a direct answer as to why Fletcher made such a claim, saying “We are pointing to the imperative of getting supplies in to save an estimated 14,000 babies suffering from severe acute malnutrition in Gaza, as the IPC partnership [Integrated Food Security Phase Classification] has warned about. We need to get the supplies in as soon as possible, ideally within the next 48 hours.”…

It seems quite obvious that Britain’s large Muslim population on the entitlements granted by the leftist British government has become the focus of pro-jihadist advocacy by the BBC.
As we see in many liberal/leftist governed countries, state media now quite shamelessly offers malinformation, disinformation, misinformation, and outright lies in its so-called news.
In other words, Britain has indeed fallen to Islamic control.

At this point, I really wonder – what percentage of Brits (of any ethnic group) pay the license? Given not only the political biases, but also the fact that technology advancements enable anybody to view other media

Building Britain’s Caliphate are a disgrace, they have taken the side of hamas and blatantly lie as to what is really going on in Israel. They tell lies about anyone they disagree with, they even altered something Tommy Robinson once said, the same way as they did with Trump. But Tommy didn’t have the money to sue them, but Trump has. Best of luck Trump.

Wonder how this works? If the BBC is found guilty, which they are, does that mean
⮞ Their broadcasts in the US are automatically terminated?
⮞ No BBC journalist is given a visa to enter the US for any reason?
Obviously, the FCC won’t touch what goes on in the UK, which would remain Ofcom’s domain, but hopefully, this is the minimum they can do
I don’t care how much money changes hands b/w BBC and either FCC or Trump. I just want their operations in the US to be ended. Anybody wants to see them, go get a VPN
