BBC Gives a One-Sided Portrayal of the Oslo Accords

(CAMERA-UK) Hadar Sela - On Sept. 13, BBC News published a report headlined "Oslo Accords: 30 Years of Lost Palestinian Hopes," presenting an entirely one-sided account that fails to mention the "crushed" and "lost" hopes on the Israeli side which has seen over 1,700 of its citizens murdered in Palestinian terror attacks in those 30 years. BBC reported, "As far as Palestinians were concerned, the PA was supposed to be replaced with an elected government, running their own independent state in the West Bank and Gaza Strip, with its capital in east Jerusalem." Yet the Oslo Accords make no mention of the two-state solution or an "independent" Palestinian state. As former U.S. ambassador to Israel Martin Indyk has written: "The Oslo process was supposed to have provided the blueprint...[for] the difficult compromises needed finally to achieve peace. The Oslo Accords did not spell out those compromises; they did not provide for a Palestinian state, nor for a solution for Jerusalem."
