BBC presenter gets extraordinary support on attack by Israeli spokesperson | Janta Ka Reporter

The National Union of Journalists have issued an extraordinary statement of support for BBC’s Mishal Husain after Israeli spokesperson David Mencer attacked her and questioned her integrity during an interview.

Rifat Jawaid says that BBC ought to have raised this issue seriously to protect the safety of one of its employees.

I can't stand the deflection anymore. It is making me sooo angry... Keep going my friend... I honestly appreciate and support your work!

[Knapweed]

Apparently, Israel has the right to defend itself from the truth.

Utmost respect to Janta Ka, Owen Jones, and all the other true journalists, who are day after day, week after week, month after month, unrelentingly covering the heartbreaking and soul-crushing horrors of this genocide. I can barely bring myself to witness it any longer, but such evil must be met face on, exposed for what it is, and responded to accordingly.

keep interviewing them the more they speak the worse they look

[jaygee]

Mencer should be tried for hate crimes

[jameszatonski]

This is just unreal - a liar and corrupt criminal is given time to justify his nonsense.

[aljerdani]

Thank you for your hard work to show the truth.

[mauricehalfhide]

I'm so glad that more mainstream presenters are finally grilling him. But please do not get him fired. He is too perfect.

[amgguy]

The Whole World is sick of the Pariah.

[mohamedbelbehri]

Mencer should have his citizenship stripped of him as he works for a foreign state

[trevorelvis]

The clown hates being challenged. He just went off the rails there with the award non-sense

[permaveg]

Mencer is the person they've chosen to answer questions which shows the contempt they have for us.

[beefybeef]

Brilliant work. This is real journalism. Keep up the great work Janta!

[henrybutler]

Hey Janta... Kudos on your summation of David Mencer as an 'intellectually challenged individual!' Your restraint in your appraisal of David is to be commended!!!

[trevaudio]

Like Douglas Murray….he resorts to ad hominem attacks

[rvbsjbb]

The usual tactic, when they lose....they attack the character with name calling.

[alpetterson]

The BBC and 'integrity' don't belong in the same sentence.

[SallyMarvin-cg]

What's with the "we" he lives in the UK, was at one point a LABOUR he's a mouthpiece for Israel.

[sampson]

Look how red he gets when she catches his lie

In UK we have a joint enterprise law .If you play a part in the crime even as a back seat driver you are equally as guilty for commiting the crime .In the UKs case it has supplied the smoking gun and is implicit in the genocide of thousands of civilians, its complicit in the Apartied and ethnic cleansing taking place, it is equally as guilty as Isreal in all its crimes against humanity.
