Yariv Mozer, the director of We Will Dance Again, a documentary film about the Nova festival, said that he had to agree with the BBC to not describe Hamas as a terrorist organization if he wanted it to air, according to an interview he gave to The Hollywood Reporter on Tuesday. The film, which is set to broadcast on the BBC today, contains unseen footage of the Hamas massacre at the festival on October 7. It was commissioned by BBC Storyville. Mozer told The Hollywood Reporter that this was a concession he had to make if he wanted the film to be seen by the British public.

“It was a price I was willing to pay so that the British public will be able to see these atrocities and decide if this is a terrorist organization or not,” Mozer said. This comes amid claims of anti-Israel bias in the BBC since the beginning of the Israel-Hamas War, including a scandal caused last week by British Trevor Asserson's report that the BBC breached its own editorial guidelines for news coverage more than 1,500 times since the beginning of the war.

Mozer added that he had offered the documentary to multiple streaming platforms in the US. However, they were reportedly unwilling to pick it up due to concerns about the political situation. “The film isn’t political,” Mozer stated. “It’s told from the eyes of the survivors and from the eyes of Hamas. There is one truth about what happened.”

They are terrorists. Alwasy have been. To say otherwise is a blatant lie.

Is the correct term, “people who engage in terrorism” instead of terrorists?

Someone needs to remind the BBC Hamas is literally an internationally recognized terrorist organization. There’s no journalistic integrity left in this world.
