The anti Israel = anti semitism agenda

It is but due to America backing Israel nothing will ever be done at a international level, they deserve sanctions at the very least.
 
I do not have an opinion on the current issues in Israel and Palestine, as I haven't done enough reading to understand what's going on and the history, but I am saddened to see the clear BBC News bias. There are Palestinian marches across all UK major cities at this moment in time, but they are not reported anywhere on BBC. Why the radio silence?

They don't want to be called antisemitic, since opposing Israel = hating Jewish people.

Don't know if it is internal policy but the BBC never reports on stuff like that until it hits mainstream news via other sources. Same with coups and other anti-government protests - until/unless it is reported so much elsewhere it looks odd they don't cover it or starts to look bad on them if they don't not a mention.
 
Yes, purposefully blowing up any civilian building is classed as a war crime. They're punishing the press for reporting on their crimes.

All distraction tactics from Netanyahu's corruption charges

From what i've read they gave the press a 1hr+ warning that the building was to be targeted. Doesn't sound very 'war crime' like to me. Probably is a genuine reason as obviously it will get a lot of scrutiny despite the 0 casualties - Hamas head of media operating in the basement or similar.

Giving notice doesn't preclude their obligations in terms of (not) targeting the press - though there may be other circumstances that give them wiggle room when it comes to a war crime.

Unless they can prove there was an imminent threat existing from that building technically it is a war crime and would be deemed as such if it was many other countries doing it.
