[JarooKash]

That is whey they were gassed .. 88

[mapleridgebc]

Israel is the head office for the USA

[cheegum]

Inna lillahi wa inna ilaahi rajioon.

From Him we come and to Him do we return.

[sethcat99]

end it. one way or the other, this never should have gone on this long.

[jerjei]

wow

[azamkini]

good on iran they will dismantle israel soon.....

[johnnyblunder]

Whats the world leaders saying to the Israeli war mongers, sod all, what they get away with is War crimes,shooting shells from tanks and killing innocent children..Thats brave..not..BOOM...Iran 1 Israel 0

[greenblue82]

brave men die while doing duty, ass halls die

while cursing like jiboou ;-)

[jiboou]

Reuters is the voice of terror just like BBC and Al jazeera. It's remarkable these reporters happen to be there right next to militants.

[RYENZRO]

It doest mean fascism, it represents fascism.

[EmelinaChaCha]

RIP You were brave to work to bring news to the world.

[gorf1]

June 09 2007 Palestinian terrorists used Jeep with TV sticker for terrorist attack against border crossing in Gaza.

Its impossible to differ between camera and anti tank missile launcher from hundreds of meters.

[jimiydoorshamLachim]

This is why America supports Israel

June 18, 2008
 ,

90,000 liters of diesel fuel for the power station, 90,000 liters for transportation and 70 tons of cooking gas were transferred to the Gaza Strip via the Nahal Oz depot, despite the closing of the terminal in the morning because of a terror shooting at Israeli civilians engaged in engineering work near the border fence.

50 people (patients and their companions) crossed into Israel via the Erez crossing for medical treatment

[marinetargetinc]

Fucking dirty Talmudists no wonder people get furious and feel compelled to retaliate i'm glad Ahmadinejad is building a big Iranian present for them.

[xxashyy]

Those brave Israelis are doing a good job shooting at Terrorist cameraman and also terrorist UN Convey. Are these jews in israel all blind they couldnt see the US flag when they attacked the USS Liberty in 67, they cant see the UN lettering on the UN convoys, now they cant distinguish regular cameramen from real so called terrorists. ARE THEY FUCKING BLIND over there in Israel or just too damned paranoid!!?!?

[tyruler]

Terrorist Israel kills journalist, children (al-Durra) men, women including peace activists like the brave American college student Rachel Corrie and British student Tom Hurndall.

After the Lebanese war of 06 and IDF bombing of water treatment facility and electrical grid including highways, I'm convinced (Amnesty or HRW doesn't need to tell me) Israel is the state terrorist.

[cradle2light]

imagine if he was an American or Jewish working for reuters and if the Tank is not from Isreal " HE BE FRONT PAGE NEWS!!!!!"

shame on reuters for not fighting for justice for his behalf!!!!!

[Eudoxio80]

If u r a Citizen, u can run for office in your local government. Be the leader in your community that speaks the truth and has high moral standards. We have to eliminate all the hypocrites running our government, churches and households. U can be the role model.

Hope you can help in your community.

watch?v=zbR4jXfQqVU

[gsadler82]

so that's where the u.s. gets there ideas from. I think the issue was supposedly that militants used emergency vehicles to cloak themselves so i'm guessing the israelis didn't take any chances. sad.

[gasttheplast]

Why is my reply not wear I put it!

It was at Daritto7117.

[mkspence]

Reporter's question:

But isn't this a TV car?

My answer: Yes, but in Israel's case, terror groups use vehicles such as TV cars and ambulances for their own ends.

In the United States' case, terror groups use wide body civilian airliners for even greater effect.

[PauloGVieira]

This was not an ambulance or just any car - it was clearly marked media!

Keep on writing so we can all see just what a stupid American you are.

[Daritto7117]

Im not a big fan of israel!!!

BUT ALJEZEERA: Wtf was the point of this video?!?! Plenty of camera men  die throughout the world by different acts in all countries?? Why choose isreal?

[kermanparts]

Israel killed a reuters camera man yesterday, they seem to be very good at killing camera men,

[Daritto7117]

True!!!

Im only 17 and im my debate II class we took a class vote of the approval of Israel. We have 3 jewish kids in our class of 23.

I was one of only 4 people who had a negative view of Israel overall. Our government and meida is douping our country into approving of israel and dissaproving of the negative views of it!!

Honestly, my school system is 24% Hindu and 2% Jewish yet we get days off for Jewish holidays and not Hindu holidays. Surprised??

[kermanparts]

I think in Europe far more people disapprove of Israel despite the moves made by the new french poddle. It is only since the end of the cold War Israel has had to try and sell itself because it is really just a pain in the ass of America. I dont think Jewish Holidays have much to do with zionism and Israel, Hindus probably have historically been in the US for less time than Jews.

[Daritto7117]

Its True most europeans have a generally negative view of israel!!

True. True

thanks

[PauloGVieira]

Because this missile was dropped on a car marked as 'media' by a nation-state that enjoys considerable American support!

If Britain dropped a missile on a car clearly marked as civilian I can assure you it will be huge news. This is not an Israeli exception - dont play the victim.

[Daritto7117]

don't play the victim?!?

the victims are the world and especially the worlds people b/c guess what!!

ALL 3 PRESIDENTIAL NOMINEE'S have promised their support for israel??? wow...no one saw that coming. lol

[PauloGVieira]

You're f*cking American - if you dont like this policy do something about it!

[Daritto7117]

Excuse me?? PauloGVieira

How can our voices be heard when the overwhelming majority of americans approve of Israel!!!

Its quite unsurprising that your bashing me for my disapproval of israel yet you suscribe to a pro-Israeli Channel. Go Figure!!!

[PauloGVieira]

Do the overwhelming majority of Americans actually know what is taking place in Israel and Palestine? No.

You dont understand how easy it is - email your local govt representative, write into editorials, look into Israel/Palestinian peace lobby groups in the USA and support their work.

Your country and government are your own so make them work for you. If you dont like it say something.Your attitude is the crisis of the modern democracy today - that as individuals we think we're powerless.

[Daritto7117]

Hahah. You must think im stupid!?! ya jerk

I've emailed, petitioned, protested, and sent letters and nothing!! My senators refuse to do anything b/c they want to be realected smart one!!

Shut up you jerk...first telling me "im fucking american" and now saying for me to try to change this countries missviewed view of Israel.

Honestly, what are you BiPolar??

Get a life and STOP RESPONDING TO EVERYONES ANTI-ISRAELI COMMENTS YOU LIER!!!

[PauloGVieira]

Petitions dont work. Email and keep on sending letters, join a lobby group for peace in the Middle East - there are many in your country and they can advise you further. It took many decades for the Israeli lobby to evolve in your country.

Whilst I can appreciate your sympathies your defeatist attitude does not help your cause. You should be even more determined if the odds are against you.

[Daritto7117]

Hahah. You must think im stupid!?! ya jerk

I've emailed, petitioned, protested, and sent letters and nothing!! My senators refuse to do anything b/c they want to be realected smart one!!

Shut up you jerk...first telling me "im fucking american" and now saying for me to try to change this countries missviewed view of Israel.

Honestly, what are you BiPolar??

Get a life and STOP RESPONDING TO EVERYONES ANTI-ISRAELI COMMENTS YOU LIER!!!

[gasttheplast]

Thats right.

I agree 100%

[Daritto7117]

Thanks a lot!!

It means a lot coming from a Canadian ;]

Im not surprised that you weren't american

beacuse most americans wouldn't agree with me

lol :)

[JorickHorn]

"Fadl Shanaa, who was killed by an Israeli missile on April 16, spoke to Al Jazeera in February. "

You'd think he'd have stopped walking around, then.

[brick4sale]

I have said it once and I'll say again you want to change US policy towards Israel you have to out lobby them. Beat the Jews at their own game; fight the PACS with your own PACS because no amount of homemade rockets and suicide bombers will change Israel. You Arabs have money start lobbying; it is sadly the only way to balance the power.

[crazycatfguy]

That might help but the media is afraid to tell the truth about Zionist because the average American cannot distinguish between criticizing a secular governments policy and antisemitism.

[brick4sale]

It is a three pronged approach the academic world, the media, and the politicians. If you can gain power and influence into those major outlets, you can change the perception of Palestinians. Evangelicals aside if you can begin to have sway within those major institutions then Palestine can be a tangible reality.

[crazycatfguy]

The media is cowed and I don't see any way to solve this. Hopefully enough people have internet access that grass root truthers can influence them. If Americans knew the difference between Jews and Zionist it might be possible to criticize the secular Israeli government without being labeled an antisemite.

[brick4sale]

No, I don't think that would change many Americans opinion, I think if one were to show how unbalanced the war is that might change some opinions.

[Jalaal1]

A controversial weapon that fired metal darts from a tank shell killed Fadl Shanaa, as flechette shells these Thousands of darts are released in mid-air when a tank shell explodes and can spray out over hundreds of metres, this Shows the lack of concern for Innoccent civilians In Palestine by The Israelis! (IDF) They Should be Done for War Crimes & more!! But No because The U.S.A is The Main Supporter Of The Terrorist State of Israel !! So The UN & The World Turns There Backs On Palestine!

[suckmybass]

Poor bloke was always a target. RIP

[thelittlegoldfish]

impunity make cowards brave men , , i one's had respect for the Jews, now I got learned I know there lying cowards who use children to gain sympathy , there thinking is a kin to child prostitution,,,

[crazycatfguy]

It is important to note that Zionist are secular Jews who are not supported by religious Jews. Zionist claim that Arabs want to kill all Jews when there are Jewish people living in Arab countries unmolested and the hate is only directed at a government who illegally repress Arabs in Palestine.

[thelittlegoldfish]

they wont jrusesalam, ,,and wont stop untill the religious order has what it want , or is stopped by pressure from Europe and USA as if , fuck the holocaust , fuck the jews , and fuck there religious order,  to many insolent people have died for that pig of a jewish religion ,the lie , fuck the state Israel .

(true at least the some nazi thinking is sound) , ,

[PauloGVieira]

There are many types of Zionists so dont pressume to tell me that they are secular!

They could hardly be called secular when they have one set of rules for people of a certain religion and another set for other faiths.

[crazycatfguy]

And politicians don't pander to their constituencies? There are both religious and secular forces in the Israeli government so what makes you think it is not just compromise and a core belief of secular Jews?

[thelittlegoldfish]

thats death to Israel ,,,,just don't be racest ,

[cradle2light]

hey just to show the BIAS in many MAIN STREAM MEDIA...i try to post about Fadl Shanaa but WAS NOT ALLOWED to COMMENT in REUTERs

[cradle2light]

stillbill, dont use this Lame excuse as a defence!! if you so Fearful...why dont they shoot at every vechile coming from palestine!!! if God is on Your Side then there is not much to FEAR isnt it???

[uchoob00]

Israel needs to be shut down. Idiotic for the whole world to be drawn into this mess. It can easily be solved

[jamal22066]

fadel shana passed away yesterday after another isreali attack. RIP.

[ItsStillBill]

Shame on the Palestinian insurgents who use civilian vehicles as military weapons. There are proven instances of ambulances being used by insurgents, so you cannot blame Israel for not trusting every marked car they see. I don't have to remind you of Reuters's doctored photographs in the recent HB/Israel war.

[PauloGVieira]

F*ck off! So because of one or two isolated incidents Israel has carte blanche to drop missiles on civilian cars! You are disgusting.

What a sick sense of morality you follow - it is no surprise you are American. The money you paid in taxes paid for this tragedy.

[ItsStillBill]

shut up you self-righteous buffoon. i'm just saying the palestinians create the confusion of war when they misuse ambulances. they make it so that no one can be trusted. don't forget this killing of a journalist is an isolated incident too. i'm not justifying an intentional killing of journalists.

[PauloGVieira]

The confusion of war? Oh yes usually wars are normally not so confusing, Im sure the Americans in Iraq and once in Vietnam agree with you.

The killing of this journalist by Israel an isolated incident? Unfortunately not. Go read Reporters Without Borders.

[hamada1256]

رحمك الله يا فضل شناعه ولعنة الله على الصهاينه المجرمين.

[Inkan1969]

Reuters should not take this lying down.  They have to protest for justice for their lost employee.

[liverpooltimes]

R.I.P. Fadl Shanaa.

[EdyPegasus]

This was a past attack, he is dead now.

[sugarpuddin88]

I am really glad to see he survived!!!

[m4design]

Unfortunately he didn't survive.

The comment of the video posted above

"Fadl Shanaa, who was killed by an Israeli missile on April 16, spoke to Al Jazeera in February.

He was interviewed as part of a series called 'Shoot the Messenger' that focuses on the increased dangers that journalists are facing in covering the story. He had survived an Israeli air raid in 2006."

[sugarpuddin88]

I supposed the USA is too busy "spreading democracy" world wide to take notice?

But that still doesn't explain why the US veto's every complaint made against Israel at the UN

[hajqbvii]

AIPAC, Israeli Lobbyist money....and 'Delegate

Electability', pro-Israel.

[sugarpuddin88]

What!? You are saying Nancy Pelosi and her husband support the AIPAC?

[infected28]

fuck jews. heil hitler. gas chamber power!

[abarzilai664]

Hitler's dead and burning in hell.

[natashanaa]

isreal is committing a holicaust against the gazan people, starving, closing borders and killing them like animals, while the poop is pooping in USA.

[cardieunion]

Is it any wonder that Jordan killed more Palestinians in Black September in 1970-71 than Israel has killed in it's entire 60 year history. People like you just like to use loaded words, and only to demonize Israel. Any and all crimes committed by arabs are immediately forgotten, if ever even talked about.

[natashanaa]

Dont change the subject CARDIEUnion, every war criminal in power who has committed war crimes against humanity must be brought to justice, it is only fair for democracy, it is only fair as we demand human rights equality to all, people like me lived wars of those you protect zionists. eh?

[natashanaa]

it is a war crime, the shame of the arabic agent leaders of usa working under cover protecting isreal, instead of standin up and sending a message to isreal that peace cant be achieved while killing people like animals, without respect to humanity laws, they will be never peace with isreal until it stop it's occupation and massacres against the middle eastern people, we demand justice. NO PEACE NO JUSTICE.

[brick4sale]

I don't get the poop comment

[natashanaa]

isreal busy again killing palestinians, the politics are so transparent unbelievable, that poop who is in the usa blessing the war criminals and their crimes, making excuses for pedophiles and washing up their sins, hahahaha, what a comedy this world is, Im sorry for the loss of the journalist who was only doing his job, I hope u bring those who killed him to justice, God bless his soul.

[runswithscissorsalot]

god bless him. a journalist in any conflict is doing god's work: bringing the brutality of war to the world; An enlightened world is a less violent one.
