Good morning and welcome to the Independent Republic of Mike Graham on Talk TV.

We're already underway. We've already got lots of stories to talk about.

We'll be taking your calls coming up as well.

034449-1,000. The BBC's coverage of the war in Israel has been nothing short of atrocious.

I think we've been talking

about it ever since it kicked off. Why on earth are they still not calling Hamas terrorists

exactly what they are? They are terrorists. Anyway, there's now a flagship Israeli comedy show

Eretz Nehairat and they've had a pop at the BBC as well. Have a look at this.

Good evening from London. Here are some news from the war in Gaza. Israel has bombed a hospital killing hundreds of innocent people. More, more.

Much better. With more details, our Middle East correspondent, Harry Whitegilt.

Good evening, Rachel, from the illegal colony of Tel Aviv.

I mean, it goes on and on like that, and it is quite incredible.

The BBC, once, you know, well-respected and probably well-relied upon news source for everything.

I mean, I remember being given an actual globe by somebody

during the time of Glasnost when Mikhail Gorbachev was becoming the new,

emerging leader of the former Soviet Union.

And on it was a quote from Mikhail Gorbachev,

and it was a BBC globe, and it said,

the BBC knows everything.

And in those days, when the BBC said something, it was taken as gospel, it was taken as read.

Sadly, it is no longer the case.

And I think that comedy skit being made by Israelis, I think it pretty much shows how far the BBC have fallen.
