PSC is undertaking important work tackling the institutional pro-Israel bias at the BBC. But we need your support to continue.
PSC and five other organisations have written to the Director General of the BBC to ask if political pressure was responsible for the dropping of the documentary, Jerusalem: An Archaeological Mystery Story.The film casts doubts on the notion of a mass Jewish exodus from Jerusalem nearly two thousand years ago, on which the Zionist ‘right of return’ to Palestine is based.Itwas due to be shown on BBC Four. Read the letter and PSC’s press release.
On Thursday 6th June ‘Stop G4S’, a coalition of PSC and other human rights organisations, protested against G4S’ involvement in human rights violations both inside and outside the company’s AGM.
Inside the AGM meeting protestors unfurled a banner saying ‘Stop G4S’. Of the 16 questions put to the board, seven were from Palestine activists demanding to know when G4S will end its contracts with Israeli prisons, where Palestinian children, women and men are held, often without trial, and routinely tortured.
On June 26th 2012 an independent legal report, funded by the Foreign Office, examined the treatment of Palestinian child prisoners by the Israeli authorities.
The report found Israel in breach of international law & human rights treaties. It made 40 recommendations.
So one year on since the report was published …. has the situation actually improved for Palestinian children?
