BBC publishes news that indirectly supports violence in France

Concludes that French politicians are responsible for the violence by Muslims by telling the plight of a Muslim youth in the city of Marseille in France

London (England) – BBC has published a news that the French politicians are responsible for the ongoing violence in France. News published under the headline “France Riots: For the politicians we are nothing”, has put forth the plight of Amine, a 19-year-old Muslim boy from the city of Marseille, France. The news mentioned Amine’s statement that, “I do not justify the violence, but I can understand the anger of the young people here”.

The riots followed protests over the shooting by police of 17-year-old Nahel M, an Arab in Paris. There was also widespread arson and vandalism in the seaside city of Marseille. All this has been highlighted by BBC and in this news, Amin further says that, “there is a large amount of drug trafficking in this city. The poor (Muslim) youth have no means of education and are left with the option of engaging in drug-related business. President Emmanuel Macron has visited the city twice and announced various plans for us but our plight was not heard.” Overall, this news concluded that ‘French politicians are responsible for the discontent of the Muslim youth and that is why these youth are rioting’.

Editorial Viewpoints

It is true that journalism should not be one sided but advocating violence to maintain its balance is always reprehensible. What else would one expect in relation to France from BBC, which always supports the fanatical Muslims in India ?
