IndustryStandard[Video] British journalist Steve Sweeney bombed by Israel while reporting in Lebanon
RT journalist so it’s hard to believe. Or could have been staged. The way they describe the bomb and the “good luck” it didn’t kill anyone
Yeah, because it matters which journalist is targeted. The good guys are obviously allowed to target journalists of the bad guys.
You are an absolute fucking retard, just as anyone agreeing with this stupid ass take. He and his team are fucking civilians. They are not legitimate targets.
They’re a mouth piece for Russian propaganda, and as much as Israel can go fuck itself, they literally told people they were targeting the bridge and finishing up the road destruction. Even fired warnings shots…this guy is a known propagandists for russia.
Oh, my bad, right. Ignoring collateral civilians isn’t a war crime, because obviously they’ve been warned to fuck off. This is an amazing concept for journalism, you just tell any journalist that is uncomfortable for you to get away or they die, and if they don’t, you just kill them. Isn’t that great?
Civilians are not a legitimate target, without exceptions.

“Fuck israel, but actually no”. If the same clip would’ve been from the Ukraine with a Russian shell in the background, you would be protesting the fucking ICC already.
You’re a bootlicking asshole, excusing war crimes with pathetic double standards. Fuck you, and everyone coming up with that unhinged argument of “It’s not a crime if the good guys done it”, “it’s not a crime if the victim was a bad guy”, or both at the same time. Fuck you, and your moral pseudo hight ground. People like you are part of the reason that the US and their Israeli buddies can invade, genocide and cripple whole countries with close to zero backlash and with zero consequences.

Are…are you ok? You do know how wars work, legitimate or not ones. You target infrastructure, that’s what Israel was doing here. This idiot knows where they were going to be bombing, and set up near it. This isn’t journalism.

It’s just Ukraine.
Russia doesn’t announce that it’s going to bomb a bridge, or location. They just hit civilian apartments.

The actual fuck are you on? Israel needs to be de-armed and basically neutered, but so does Russia and it propaganda machine. Get off your podium kid, nothing I have ever said has been in support for Israel or the US wars.

Again, fuck you and your arrogance. You know who’s mouthpiecing for who, what strikes have been called where and by whom, and seemingly everything else. Obviously, there isn’t a chance that Israel could’ve lied about that and deliberately striking this guy as claimed, since the Israeli government and IDF have proven to not misreport anything and they have never deliberately targeted civilians, journalists, medical personnel, or other persons of interests. Even the OHCHR stated concerns about the excessive bombings on infrastructure in Lebanon and the impact on civilians, potentially considering those as a war crime. Israeli officials threatened to do the same razing to Lebanon as they did in Gaza, and already started to do the same mass displacement orders (also a war crime btw), but they are just warning them to fuck off before they bomb the shit out of them, so that’s all fine, right?
And what is journalism then? Broadcasting from a luxury hotel far away claiming all is well? Those people risk their life to show what’s actually happening, and that’s exactly why they are protected.
So yeah, I seem to be more okay than you, at least I’m not excusing war crimes and accepting civilian casualties.
Get off your podium kid, nothing I have ever said has been in support for Israel or the US wars.
And yet you’re excusing obvious fucking war crimes. Keep lying to yourself and get back to that delicious boot.
Again, fuck you and your arrogance. You know who’s mouthpiecing for who, what strikes have been called where and by whom, and seemingly everything else.
The fuck are you on about? It sounds like you’re just shouting at the wind. Lol you must not be able to read, or research shit.

Dude is literally standing in an existing warning shot crater with the bridge in the background…use your eyes for once, and not your mouth. You seem to be real good at trying to make up silly arguments…

At what point did I say it was ok? Please please show me where I stated what Israel is doing is ok?
And what is journalism then? Broadcasting from a luxury hotel far away claiming all is well? Those people risk their life to show what’s actually happening, and that’s exactly why they are protected.
Knowing that an area is going to be bombed before hand to get views is not journalism…and it’s quite hilarious that you’re simping for RT… assuming you got a little tankie in you.
So yeah, I seem to be more okay than you, at least I’m not excusing war crimes and accepting civilian casualties.
Yea cause that’s what I was doing lol, you must have slept through school to be that bad at reading comprehension.
And yet you’re excusing obvious fucking war crimes. Keep lying to yourself and get back to that delicious boot.
Lol as I said kid, please show me where I have excused what Israel is doing lol
At what point did I say it was ok? Please please show me where I stated what Israel is doing is ok?
Your initial post was “they fired warning shots, he still went there it’s his fault”, I called you out on that. You doubled down with:
Are…are you ok? You do know how wars work, legitimate or not ones. You target infrastructure, that’s what Israel was doing here. This idiot knows where they were going to be bombing, and set up near it. This isn’t journalism.
You are literally dismissing any argument with “They targeted infrastructure, which is fine, and the journalist is at fault for being there”
and it’s quite hilarious that you’re simping for RT… assuming you got a little tankie in you.
Let’s go, you also need to call me a snowflake for your retard bingo card. Should’ve thought you’re a fucking American. Saying a journalist is a human being and has his human rights is simping for RT and being a tankie. You have lost any respect and value of a human life, like most of the US unfortunately.
I’m fucking done wasting time with this bipolar shit. You’re doubling and tripling down into points claiming that you’re not making those points, and you’re not interested in anything else than making your own point anyways, so whatever lol
Your initial post was “they fired warning shots, he still went there it’s his fault”, I called you out on that. You doubled down with:
No you didn’t, because cried foul because I stated that he is a russian mouthpiece and that wars don’t work like you think they do. I even said that what Israel is doing is bullshit, but I also don’t cry foul when a propagandists goes to an area that’s being bombed and then screams he was targeted.
You are literally dismissing any argument with “They targeted infrastructure, which is fine, and the journalist is at fault for being there”
There is no other argument to be had here. This propagandist was in a spot, that was called out for getting bombed, it gets bombed and he screams he was being targeted… literal definition of propaganda. Dude knew the bridge was getting waxed. It’s why no one is visible in the area.
Let’s go, you also need to call me a snowflake for your retard bingo card. Should’ve thought you’re a fucking American.
Wait wait, the guy who has literally been personally attacking me, is whining when I say something back? Lol fucking hilarious kid.
Saying a journalist is a human being and has his human rights is simping for RT and being a tankie. You have lost any respect and value of a human life, like most of the US unfortunately.
Considering this journalist is a British citizen…and that Russia and Israel both need to be cleaned up like Germany was with Hitler…sure I do value some lives over others. I’m not afraid to say it, tolerating the intolerant is why you get these types of people.
I’m fucking done wasting time with this bipolar shit. You’re doubling and tripling down into points claiming that you’re not making those points, and you’re not interested in anything else than making your own point anyways, so whatever lol
Yea… I’m the bipolar one, you literally couldn’t make it a single post without personal attacks. Lol
