    Yep.. BBC Gaza film producer proudly celebrates terrorism and murder.

    Gaza documentary producer celebrated Palestinian terrorists as ‘martyrs’

    A producer of a controversial documentary on Gaza called a terrorist who shot dead seven Israeli civilians on Holocaust Memorial Day a “martyr”, The Telegraph can reveal.

    The Channel 4 film Gaza: Doctors Under Attack was billed as a “forensic investigation” into claims the Israel Defence Forces (IDF) were deliberately targeting Palestinian medics in a systematic campaign to cripple Gaza’s hospitals.

    But one of the two Gazan producers, Osama Al Ashi, had previously described Palestinian terrorists as “martyrs” and has been accused of posting “celebratory” footage of the Oct 7 2023 attacks on social media.

    The Committee for Accuracy in Middle East Reporting and Analysis (Camera UK), a pro-Israel monitoring organisation, said it raised questions about the producer’s objectivity and the documentary’s impartiality.

    A Camera UK spokesman told The Telegraph: “A producer who celebrates the deaths of Israeli civilians on what he sees as ‘the other side’, and who appears unable to distinguish them from legitimate military targets, cannot be considered an impartial observer.”

    After being contacted by The Telegraph, Ashi deleted several social media posts in which he had described terrorists as “martyrs”.

    The documentary, made by Basement Films, an independent production company, proved controversial even before it was broadcast.

    It was originally commissioned by the BBC, but the broadcaster decided it “risked creating a perception of partiality that would not meet the high standards that the public rightly expect of the BBC.”

    Earlier, in February, the corporation had been forced to remove a Gaza documentary by a different production company from iPlayer. It had emerged that the child narrator of Gaza: How To Survive A Warzone was the son of a Hamas government minister.

    In light of this, the BBC reviewed Gaza: Doctors Under Attack and decided to axe it.

    Channel 4 acquired the film, stating it had carried out “thorough fact checking and verification” to ensure it met its editorial standards and the Ofcom broadcasting code. The film aired on July 2.

    But it is now known that, in an Instagram post on Jan 27 2023, Ashi, a producer from Gaza, described Khairi Alqam, a 21-year-old terrorist from East Jerusalem, as a “martyr”.

    Earlier that day – Holocaust Memorial Day – Alqam drove to a synagogue in the Israeli settlement of Neve Yaakov, took out a handgun, and opened fire on worshippers leaving the building. This settlement is recognised as being illegal under international law.

    The attack, the deadliest by a Palestinian gunman in the region since 2008, left seven civilians dead. The youngest was a 14-year-old child.

    Alqam was shot dead by police as he fled on foot.

    Ashi responded to the attack by posting a commemorative video showing photos of the terrorist, captioned “the martyr Khairi Alqam – may God have mercy on him and forgive him”, a common Arabic condolence message.

    The clip is a slideshow of photos of the gunman in various settings, including wearing a bow tie and three-piece suit, and posing in sunglasses beside a car on a mountain road, set to melancholic music.

    After being contacted by The Telegraph, Ashi deleted the post about Alqam.

    Alqam has not been formally linked to any terror group and could have been motivated by personal trauma and a desire for revenge.

    His grandfather, also his namesake, was stabbed to death in 1998 by Chaim Pearlman, a Jewish extremist from the Kach movement. Pearlman was legally represented by Itamar Ben-Gvir, now Israel’s Minister of National Security.

    Nine months after Alqam’s synagogue attack, on Oct 7 2023, as Hamas launched its attacks on Israel, Ashi posted videos on his social media.

    On Instagram, he shared footage of Hamas terrorists flying into Israel by paraglider as dawn broke over the Gaza Strip, set to an uplifting Islamic song encouraging fighting against oppressors.

    The clip contains the footage of the attack overlaid with the Arabic lyrics: “Fill the earth with Takbir [the praise of God] – to shake the oppressors.”

    The post is captioned: “These are the videos that settlers are now circulating of the resistance storming and infiltrating the occupied territories in the Gaza Strip.”

    @gwb-trading, why are you trolling this Sunday again? You know it upsets @themickey. Can't you try and be a decent person one day of the week?

    You’re not debating the content of the film, you’re trying to preempt empathy by framing any Palestinian voice as terrorist-adjacent. It’s the same old routine, erase nuance, flatten grief, weaponize isolated posts, and hope nobody notices the bodies under the rubble.

    Israeli American genocide scholar now says, yes, its genocide.
