I can only assume that by witholding publication, the BBC is aware of the damaging contentsg

I am deeply concerned at the bias shown against Israel during any and all news reports. This is, in itself, a form of anti-Semitism and unacceptable especially when it fuels the new attacks that are happening in the Jewish community.

The BBC needs to be transparent in revealing the full conclusions of this report into its news coverage.

the people expect from the bbc to be the historical organisation that supported the people who fought for freedom of the man, and today from antisemitic reasons and political reasons supports terror, supports wimen discrimination, gay discrimination. as freedom figgters only because they fight jews. would this be the way that bbc would treat another organisation if it would be chistian?

It is inconceivable that an organisation funded by public money refuses to disclose to the public the contents of an investigative report. What are they trying to hide??

Why hide the results unless they are unfavourable? Please release them for general scrutiny ASAP

To anyone who has the slightest knowledge of the long term attacks on Israel and the patience of the Israeli government, beforer finally hitting back at the murderers who run Gaza, will be aware of the lies and distortions of the BBC as well as of many newspapers in the UK.

BBC reporting of Israel is often so skewed and selective that one loses confidence in the Beeb's reports from elsewhere around the world.

The BBC obviously has something to hide if it spent this much of taxpayers money to produce a report then never make the findings public!
