Ex-British PM Tells BBC News Anchor That The Network Should Call Hamas 'Terrorists' [View all]
Former British Prime Minister David Cameron strongly suggested to a BBC news anchor on Sunday that the network should call Hamas “terrorists.”
Cameron, now the foreign secretary, ripped the public broadcaster for avoiding the terminology after the death of British-Israeli hostage Nadav Popplewell, who was kidnapped in the Hamas raid of Israel on Oct. 7 that began the war.
Hamas on Saturday released an undated video of Popplewell, who had a black eye, identifying himself before a large question mark appeared onscreen. Hamas later issued a statement claiming he had died from injuries in an Israeli airstrike on Gaza.
“Like everyone else, I watched the video on Twitter, X, last night, put out by Hamas of Nadav answering a question as to who he was,” Cameron told the BBC’s Laura Kuenssberg. “And I watched that video and you just think, what callous people they are to do that, to play with the family’s emotions in that way.”
