Maurice Klein speaks with DJ Schneeweiss, Head of Planning and Strategy at the National Library of Israel (NIL) that is charged with collecting and preserving the cultural and intellectual heritage of Israel and the Jewish people, and bringing them to life. In the aftermath of the terrible events of Simchat Torah (October 7) last year and the ongoing wars with Hamas and Hezbollah, the National Library of Israel is embarking on a massive documentation and preservation project bearing witness to this crucial chapter of Jewish history. With the goal to craft a vast, reliable and open repository, reflecting a broad scope of testimony, documentation, social media coverage, and public information efforts that will serve the purpose of creating a national memory database, they are documenting the Israel experience and is also documenting the experience of Jewish communities worldwide. To share and submit materials, fill out the form online at https://www.nli.org.il/en. As Elie Wiesel said “If anything can, it is memory that will save humanity".

Maurice Klein speaks with Trevor Asserson, who put together a large team of lawyers and data experts to investigate the BBC bias reporting of the Israel-Hamas conflict post October 7. Using AI to analyse some nine million words of coverage across several languages and BBC platforms (including the BBC Arabic service) the comprehensive report of 199 pages, covering the period from October 7, 2023 to February 7, 2024 reveals a consistent pattern of anti-Israel bias exposing the BBC breaching its own editorial guidelines of impartiality, accuracy, editorial values and public interest over 1500 times, against its own standards of accuracy and balance. The report claims that the BBC downplayed Hamas terrorism; conversely Israel was presented as a militaristic and aggressive nation. According to the report, the BBC suggested that Israel faced "no substantial threat" effectively delegitimizing Israel's right to defend itself. By contrast the coverage of Hamas military strength and conduct as a terrorist Palestinian government of Gaza is receiving far less attention. The need for impartial and trusted news has never been greater. Source: BBC Annual Report 2023/24. Watch out ABC, you could be next.
