"The way America has got involved in conflicts in regions like the Middle East has made some people very angry, including a group called al-Qaeda - who are widely thought to have been behind the attacks."
"Al-Qaeda hopes its attacks will make Western countries treat Muslims differently in areas like the Middle East, the Balkans and Chechnya.""Al-Qaeda has been accused of being behind a series of attacks and bombings since its formation in the late 1980s."
The massive bias would be depressing but unsurprising: That Al Qaeda are behind 9/11 is "widely thought", that they are behind a series of other attacks and bombings is an accusation. However, that they hate America solely because of its involvement in the Middle East and have a genuine humanitarian concern for their fellow Muslims is asserted as fact.
What is really alarming, though, is that this is a feature from Newsround. Children's news. The public are right to regard the BBC license as one of the most unfair taxes, they shouldn't be forced to pay for their children to be brainwashed.

On this occasion, despite the fact I support much of the BBC's output, I agree with you. That was a ridiculous statement and whoever is responsible for it should hang their head in shame.
well said. why do we pay for a service we dont ask for and may not want? Does anyone know the best way to complain to the BBC....its a nightmare doing it through their website.
