BBC Outed as Al Qaeda Propaganda Arm


Why am I not surprised? WikiLeaks has revealed several Al Qaeda members had a BBC phone number on their phones.
(Telegraph) — The BBC is accused of being part of a “possible propaganda media network” for Al Qaeda, according to the leaked US files on the Guantanamo detainees.

A detainee assessment, dated 21 April 2007, states: “The London, United Kingdom (UK), phone number 0044 207 XXX XXXX was discovered in numerous seized phone books and phones associated with extremist-linked individuals.
