#R4Today #JustinWebb asked #EdMilliband about the word #Genocide in relation to Israel and then quoted #SimonSchama as if he is an impartial umpire on the issue. He’s not. As it says in the #JewishChronicle he’s a “Proud Zionist.” Poor reporting - #BBC should be better than this.

Quoting #SimonSchama who uses the term #BloodLiable where the term #Genocide is used to describe the massacre of the people, infrastructure, living accommodation & medical facilities of #Gaza by the #Israeli #IDF

He may be 'distinguished' but with him; what distinguishes him seems volatile/movable.
