Hamas is once again seen at it's fullest glory, firing rockets from under a news reporting building. Not only they don't give a **** about the people there, they also plan on getting Israel to respond to the shooting - which will obviously cause "innocent reporters to be killed". Lovely tactic, except the news reporters don't even seem to care and actually enjoy it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jK2bg1yNqN4
obviously she was shocked of the possibility that Hamas may have launched a rocket from under the media building, and wondering what was that big noise, and asking if it was a grad? the video does not tell whether it was a grad or not, and there should be a continue till she finish the tel. call, but on purpose Israeli propaganda cut the video before it finish to hide the fact that it was an Israeli attack on that media building, which the journalists did not expect to be a target of IOF, but Israel can go to the lowest levels by attacking civilians, UN sites, shelters...etc so these journalists should have expected that Israel would also target them, luckily there were other news agencies in this same media building where Al-Arabiya office was, here is the fact that the ones behind this video did not want you to know by cutting the video before its end: and here is more about this specific clip and its contents: lovely tactic indeed!
Sounds to me like she heard the Hamas rocket get launched and then later she felt the return fire from Israel which is when she was knocked off the air. It seems that the noise she is talking about in the video (Hamas rocket) is not the same one that caused her to abandon her broadcast, that would have been the return fire from Israel at the Hamas launching position.
the old overused "human shield" false claim... if there was a rocket that been launched from there by Hamas, how come Reuters and many other news agencies who were in that same building did not report it?
You know, lots of people react to war with laughter...war is full of ironies and insanities. Obviously, she's laughing at the absurd notion of a rocket being fired under the building, which is what she seems to have heard. Her nervous laughter is clearly not an evil "bwahaha...more rockets to kill Israelis" but a rather human response to help her survive this violent situation. Another post which does not contain the information it claims. Is this the best you can do? BTW Happy Obama Day...noticed that the IDF decided to pull back so as not to lay this Gaza outrage at the new President's feet. Sort of shows what this attack was really about all along...squeezing that Bush Administration for one last US-sponsored massacre.
And yet you say nothing about the fact that Hamas launches rockets under civilian buildings. Leave the lady alone for a second and realize why there are so many victims. Without this video, you'd probably hear 'Israel bombed a palestinian news station and killed news people for fun'. --- Imad: oh, more bullshit, go away.
let the readers judge what is BS and what is not, you provided your "proof" and I provided mine, I explained why the claims that been built on that video were actually the BS, and supported it with proofs from Committee to Protect Journalists and from Reuters, if you still want to believe that there was a rocket been launched from there, you need to tell us why? and it better to be something else than what means "IOF or Israel said so, you must believe it because they are the chosen"
The thread and the "story" were about the lady laughing, as if she revels in the destruction the rocket will bring to the enemy. I think that anyone who sees it will agree that is not the case. About these rockets...well, I notice that they did not stop, although that was the purpose of the invasion. So Gaza was invaded, her people slaughtered and buildings destoyed...and the rockets never stopped. So what are we to make of this? All thoroughout the invasion, we heard that Israel had a right to defend itself. But this operation was not defensive. It was an offensive strike at a weaker neighbor. And again we see that these rockets rarely harm any civilians, that they are inaccurate and weak, many are duds. The highest number I have seen is two dozen Israeli casualties due to Qassam rockets. According to Wiki, they have a mortality rate bout .4%. That means about one in two hundred is actually lethal. That means it is safer to duck rockets in Sderot than it is to drive in LA. I don't mean to minimize the fear these people must experience. It's just that it has been blown so out of proportion that it is time to bring it back to reality. This is what we are expected to believe: 1. Israel attacked Gaza out of "self-defense" in order to stop the Qassam rockets. 2. Civilian deaths in Gaza are due to Hamas using civilians as "human shields" by mounting attacks from populated areas. 3. The Palestinians were "not being subjected to collective punishment," but they deserved it anyway since they elected Hamas and allowed them to shoot of firecrackers in their parking lots. There was nothing defensive about the invasion of Gaza...if anything, it gave Hamas more incentive to keep up the rockets. Civilians have been killed whether or not they had anything to do with Hamas. Where do you suppose Hamas should fire their rockets? Out in the open with no cover? I'm a little tired of the Zionist front demanding that I address the rockets. I have. They are firecrackers. Most cause only trivial damage. And a ground invasion does nothing to defend against them. I also wish Hamas would stop firing them forever. How can this be done, you say, without invading your neighbors? Well, it's not easy, but it is simple. Give the Palestinian people what they need. A freer way of life, a voice in the government of Israel which controls their lives. Fair-value reparations for lands seized. A commitment to living peaceably among Israel's neighbors. Then the Palestinian people will not need to resort to petty thugs like Hamas. Peace is not easy. But fighting for peace is like f*cking for virginity, as the bumper sticker said. This Gaza mess has set the young Palestinians against you. If there is not appeasement of the marginalized class within and on the borders of Israel, there will never be peace.
Israel`s been making a fool of themselves lately, seriously, acting like they`re innocent angels who`ve never done anything wrong and the world is out to get them ! I`m seriously getting sick of this no offense.
