We have covered to a fair extent here how the BBC agenda is to appease the Islamic terrorist mindset, whether to allow them greater access throughout the Islamic world, or pure cowardice, or a combination of both. The BBC actually laud themselves on how clever they think they are that terrorists are happy to talk freely to them, and have no concept of a few of the threats to our society that they add to because of this behaviour.
!. That by giving air time to these psychopaths they are promoting more of a similar mindset to join them, and adding to the number of victims there will be as a result.
2. That they give credence to this way of thinking, almost as if ISIS are some sort of freedom fighters, without proper response from either victims or those within our society that are aware of the dangers.
Frankly, this makes the BBC very real traitors within our midst.

Anti-terror squad seizes BBC Newsnight journalist's laptop after he was in communication with ISIS fighters in Syria
By Tim Lamden For The Daily Mail
Police have seized a laptop belonging to a BBC journalist who is in contact with Islamic State fighters in Syria.
Officers obtained an order under the Terrorism Act from a judge that was served on the corporation and Secunder Kermani, a journalist on BBC2’s Newsnight.
Mr Kermani joined the current affairs programme last year and has produced a series of reports on British-born jihadis.
According to the BBC, the police seized the laptop to gain access to communications between Mr Kermani and a man in Syria who has identified himself publicly as a member of Islamic State.
The extremist, who featured in Newsnight reports, was not a confidential source.
Newsnight editor Ian Katz said: ‘While we would not seek to obstruct any police investigation, we are concerned that the use of the Terrorism Act to obtain communication between journalists and sources will make it very difficult for reporters to cover this issue of critical public interest.’
Kermani has built up a reputation for making contact with Western-born IS fighters and interviewing them online about what motivates them to join the terror group.
Last year, he secured an online interview with Jake Bilardi, the Melbourne teenager who died in a suicide attack that killed at least 17 people in Iraq.
In a blog posted after Bilardi’s death in March, Mr Kermani wrote that the Australian had been fast-tracked by IS into becoming a suicide bomber.
Bilardi told the BBC journalist: ‘I came here chasing death, I might as well kill as many kuffar as I can.’ Mr Kermani began his career at the Islam Channel, which has been criticised for carrying adverts for DVDs of the radical cleric Anwar al-Awlaki.
He has secured a series of interviews with jihadis, including one last August in which a British Pakistani IS fighter – also called Awlaki – talked of beheading enemies, his hatred of the UK and that he would only return to ‘plant a bomb somewhere’.
It was criticised by former security minister Dame Pauline Neville-Jones, who said such publicity gives terrorists ‘a status and importance they should not be accorded’.
- Secunder Kermani had been in touch with many British born extremists
- However, his computer has been confiscated under the Terrorism Act
- Police aim to access communications between Mr Kermani and Syrian
- Newsnight editor Ian Katz says using law against journalists is 'concerning'
