It is now very clear that the last reason the BBC didn’t want to show the Appeal for Gaza was because of the danger of its independence being compromised. Indeed the exact opposite is the case.

It is precisely because the film shows at least some of the devastation of Gaza that the BBC has avoided showing that it doesn’t want to broadcast the film. Watch it and donate!

The public has been so outraged by these events, that the Disaster Emergency Committee (DEC) has raised £600,000 even before their appeal has been publicized.

The DEC is comprised of 13 charities: ActionAid, British Red Cross, CAFOD, Care International, Christian Aid, Concern, Help the Aged, Islamic Relief, Merlin, Oxfam, Save the Children, Tearfund, World Vision.

If you would like to contribute to the DEC fund, both to be helpful to Palestinians in Gaza and to show your displeasure with BBC policy of helping Israel, the US and the EU make Palestinians suffer, you can make a donation to the DEC at
