Arab Logic in the Hashemite kingdom:
BBC gets one of its facts on “Palestine” right
But imagine my shock when I heard – amid this feast of West-bashing and pandering to Arab grudges – the mention, en passant, of the non-existence of any “Palestine” prior to the 1920s. So unlike the Beeb to let this one slip. At roughly 6 minutes 20 seconds into the programme, the presenter and historian are perusing a pre-World War I map of the Middle East:
Presenter: What was this area called at that time?
Historian: Well, it wasn’t called any of the names we know it as today. It wasn’t Syria and it wasn’t Palestine, particularly. These were Western names, and Roman names sometimes, we used to refer to this part of the world, but at that time it was all just part of the Ottoman Empire.
Disgraced Former British MP Blames ‘Zionist Lobby’ for Iran Satellite TV Ban

British politician Paki turd Lord Nazir Ahmed blamed the “Zionist lobby” for a U.S. decision to extend sanctions against Iran to international satellite television companies, which will drop all Iranian programming, regime television channel Press TV reported, quoting Ahmed.
As usual, he just can’t help it.
Lord Ahmed Learns To Replace Word “Jewish” With “Zionist”
Remember British politician Lord Ahmed, who spoke of a Jewish conspiracy after being jailed for causing a deadly road accident while texting behind the wheel? He subsequently ”completely and unreservedly” apologised to “the Jewish community” for the remarks.
I’m beginning to think that apology wasn’t so sincere.  (Aussie Dave)
