Caught On Tape: Reporter Hit By Shell In Gaza
We earlier showed the close-up-and-personal images from the bombing raids between Hamas/ISIS/Al-Qaeda and Israel; but the following clip (which we still have not heard the final conclusion of) shows just how much of a 'surprise' these shellings can be... as a reporter is hit by a shell live on air.
The correspondent, wearing a “Press” jacket, is allegedly reporting from Gaza.
After being hit, he falls down out of view of the camera, and is heard screaming.

it's hollywood movie, move on (c) Psaki...
Was this same news team covering the original missle launch aimed at Israel, I wonder?
the war god demands more burnt offerings.
http://youtu.be/-evIyrrjTTY
It was half his fault just for being there.
More burn't, coming up.
"PRESS"
Has this really been established or confirmed?
Gotta pay more attention to the weather report, "Cloudy with a chance of shelling..."
Fake
Pale Ass Tinians are notorious for staged and fake videos.
Not quite as professional as the CNN fakes however. Remember this Jaco Fake-o blast from the past?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jTWY14eyMFg
Jaco the Waco ! Classic clip Ob1, thanks for the laugh !
The guy is OK. He was a previous FIFA soccer player before he became a reporter.
Like these fake dead kids?
http://thewe.cc/contents/more/archive/atrocities.htm
Karma is going to be a real bitch when time comes...
CNN gave new meaning to the "Blue screen of Death." I remember watching those videos on air and laughing at just how staged they seemed at the time. "Is it an attack? Oh it is! Get your gasmask on, Peter! Is it over? Okay, somebody go get us a hamburger." LOL.
Of course, there was "Syria Dave" several years ago. He reported from scenes of mortar attack carnage, but then in the unedited video all the "dead" got up and walked off to the next staging area. It was even commical to hear him signal his buddies for AK-47 gunfire for background noise effects as his reports began.
+1 for the funy clip illustrating the long standing integrity of CNN
Agreed. It didn't take more than one viewing to see how fake, too.
OUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And now back to you Wolf.....
OUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!@
Dude, they sell KY at Walgreen's ya know.
OUCH!!!!!!!!!
Missile launch for some big Sylvester rockets?
You Jews are incredible.
Man down!
Man down!
Puter down!
Who?
My puter....interweb problem
@OI812
LMAO at how the press
seem to think that because THEY are the PRESS
it some how makes them bullet or shrapnel proof
If ya want to stand up out in the open & talk in a war zone you deserve what ever happens to you
Stupid should be painful
Maybe brash, but not stupid.
I have more respect for journalists in war zones than any military anywhere.
At least they've got a career and are getting paid for it, ya know? And it doesn't include cluster bombing villages.
The ZIonist Parasites don't give a flying fuck who they take out. It their grandmothers get hit and it can help futher their "Victim Mentality" agenda, then they'd line'em up in rows and mow 'em down, just to sway the malleable mush minds of the masses to side with the plight of the Chosen Ones. One must not forget. This "Tribe", within a tribe, is not made up of ordinary human beings. Soulless and heartless, to say the least, is a fair and honest description.
Boy are you a twisted idiot -- you have it backwards, you anti-Semitic ass wipe. Hamas is widely known for using schools and children as war sheilds and using them as suicide bombers. Ever seen a Jewish suicide bomber? I didn't think so. Jews have more respect for life than you do. And, they contribute significantly to the preservation of life via major medical and scientific advancement.
Problem with your little theory... Palestinians are Semitic. Ashkenazi are not.
Israel is widely known for bombing schools and children, you anti-Arab racist hasbara troll.
Only when Muslim terrorits are hiding in schools and using their own children as shields.
http://www.hyscience.com/archives/baby%20suicide%20bomber.jpg
So you're saying Hamas should relocate back to their 2 square mile military base in Gaza? Whada dumbass.
It took me a minute to write this....wuupps..there goes another million to Israel from the US.
an another million to the Palestinians and Syrian "rebels" and the Egyptians.......
Seems we're like that strange being on the old Star Trek that thrived on hatred and war.
Had hopes for you there Daffy but then you went and huffed some more paint....
Troll,
You are an id10t.
Respectfully,
A career soldier.
dear career soldier:
being paid to kill people is not a career.
respectfully,
a member of productive society
Dear productive, the fact that the piece of land you live on, and all that's on it including you, hasn't been traded back and forth between warring states half a dozen times while you've been there, is entirely due to the existence of people like him. Do try not to show yourself up.
Are you seriously fucking kidding me? Is that a joke or do you actually believe that moronic tripe? Scratch that, I don't give a fuck about your delusions. Learn to read, then read Rothbard, then start breathing through your nose, then get a life. Moron.
What would the Zionists do, if USrael wouldn't feed her sheeple with that idiotic propaganda that the ZOG was equal to America?
Either they are stupid Goyim, who like to die for the Jewish masters without even recognizing it, or they are the masters spreading this BS.
Career Soldier,
I might be an idiot but I just don't like killing.
respectfully,
a capito-anarchist pacifist
A standing army, one of the problems we have.
OUCH!!!!!!
So Israel says they warn them when and where they will bomb?
Note to press: Don't stand around buildings where Hamas is shooting off rockets.
Most modern TV crews have figured that out...,
just saying.
He doesn't look like a 1,400yr old reporter...lol.
Praise be to Allah most merciful ;-)
Allah is just the Arabic generic word for God. Thanks to the Zionist media, that issue has been confused thoroughly. Muslims, Christians and Jews are supposed to worshipping the same creator. In reality, thanks to the Talmud, one group has gone a different route.
I know what they mean by Allah. I also know what a false prophet said & did.
nmewn, I don't think you know much about anything from what I can tell. But by all means, keep watching CNN and Fox and report back to us on what's really going on.
Oops, somebody just confidently overestimated their own intelligence.
Miffed;-)
that didnt quite work, miffed. you should have waited.... :)
After all, what's the use of giving people a proverbial open door in a 'bio' blurb if they're too obtuse to go through it?
"Long time reader, no economics background, but signed up anyway, because I'm confident and over-estimate my own intelligence."
Well (from your bio) you certainly seem modest...lol. Whatcha got on your mind, much?
I don't click on newbie links (and very few others)...copy & paste it here spud...
Is that the very best you can do?
I bet you type 'lol' quite a bit. It indicates a sort of superior, detached nonchalance, does it not?
lol.
So, your object is to waste my time.
Why don't you tell the assembled masses waiting with bated breath in your own "over confident words" how many rocket attacks have been launched from Gaza since 2001?
(Oh yeah...lol)
//////////
Well?
Since you brought it up, see if you can pull that figure out of your pompous ass
Approaching 5,000 now since 2001 and apparently Hamas is getting ready to greet the throngs of tourists who will flock to Gaza City to see this soon-to-be historic monument placed prominently in the town square ...
https://uk.news.yahoo.com/hamas-unveils-rocket-statue-gaza-city-155639335.html#DH2pX54
...cuz its fine art & high culture to them...or sumpin.
Did I get your cherry? ;-)
Well nmewn I was waiting for Top Gear's handlers to retool the bot and unleash it once again on ZH. I don't think this one is it.
Miffed;-)
Doesn't appear so.
But I'd like to give him time to regale us all with his worldly views, which unless I miss my guess, is about 10yrs worth of interwebs psychobabble after 12yrs of public school indoctrination...lol.
I think Daffy is a Dud. But the haughty self-assured statists are always good for a laugh if they put up a good battle. Hooking a ground feeding sucker vs a wide mouthed bass.
Miffed;-)
Yeah, I'm gonna have to work on my wrist action...that one got away.
Night ;-)
I look forward to your posts always NMewn
I'll bite, what do they mean by Allah?
What "I think they mean" is exactly what John said.
However, the other two groups don't carry it so far as to impose the jizya tax on non-believers (infidels) at the intersection of church & state...among many other 1,400yr old, dignified, humanist principles...lol.
Thats a handy little piece of information to have right there, for all my secularist/atheist/agnostic friends ;-)
John's view is pretty much on based on my understanding.
Regarding jizya, my understanding is that it is the tax non-Muslims pay in lieu of the zakah tax muslims are required to pay - not unlike an income tax - complete with forms and calculations, exemptions, thresholds and so on.
My understand is that non-Muslims were not required to serve in the military of an Islamic state, and jizya offsets that as well.
Now can a tax, any tax (or glorified extortion racket if you will), be abused? Absolutely.
I'd say that in the US, the income tax and the IRS are a significantly greater threat than any jizya action that might arise out some malcontent Islamic enclave, unless you include Vichy DC as a malcontent Islamic enclave. There is good argument for that too.
Of course, folks can always make a one-time payment in precious metal - lead and copper. Between the lack of revenue and the cost of fielding new ah, tax collectors, a different perspective might emerge. I think there's a germ of an idea in there, but damned if I can it to take root...
It isn't the Jews who are stopping Christians from referring to God as Allah in Malaysia.
Christians worship the Holy Trinity, the God Who is Father, Son, and Holy Ghost. The second Person of the Trinity was hypostatically united to a human nature and born of the Virgin Mary as Jesus the Christ - hence the name Christians. There is no generic creator God in Christianity because we know by revelation that the God of the philosophers, the God who can be shown by reason to be the first cause and sustaining ground of existence, just is this Trinity.
The Jews explicitly reject the second Person of the Trinity and the Muslims reject the very notion of a plurality of persons in the one divine nature. So no, we do not worship the same God.
dogma is killing you.
Wow, someone on the interwebz who actually knows his catechism <hat tip>
Goose "Shtepping" Moron,
You have done a marvelous job of sowing the racist, bigoted seeds of division with "my fairy tale is better than yours" arguments. You, and imbeciles like you, are the larger part of the problem.
Congratulations, christian (wanksta, pseudo) warrior (who has never laid his ass and his very life on the line)...
mission accomplished!
God, I love semantics.
Who needs the press at all, right nmewn? Least of all on location. Alls we need is the daily dose from the ministry of truth.
Well, I suppose you're right.
He's living? proof Hamas' rockets suck ;-)
More like, don't stand in countries where Hamas exists.
More like hand over your resources, curl up and die.
Or ISIS or Boko Haram or Muslim Brotherhood or...hey, I'm starting to see a pattern here!
And that pattern doesn't entail funding from nebulous sources does it?
Nudelman type arrangements and other such shenanigans...
DaddyO
Oh yeah, from everywhere for a host of reasons.
From Quataris to Saudis to Putin to Ambassador Stevens "good friend" Hitlary ;-)
Straight from Israhell.
Gotta go where the news is....
You annoying Christian zionist/Khazar lover.
this is how they warn you... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=waSPsI9-ge8 you have less than a minute to leave the house, and you will still be injured or killed by debries... http://rt.com/news/172316-israel-knock-roof-video/
If that's a shell, I could have taken the entire region out with the "shells" I shot off over the fourth of July.
No shit, I was thinking the same thing. I'd be embarrassed to be in this vid posing for war crimes. At least break out the exploding ketchup packets man...that was weak
I'd love to see some video from the Israeli perspective, but, ohhhh that doesn't seem to be in the offering. With so much hullabaloo over war crimes why doesn't Israel film everything. EVERYTHING. Dispel these libelous allegations. This is a professional military, right? With high precision weaponry? Minimizing civilian casualties?
Sorry, I can't keep a straight face.
They probably are, but its being gagged to sway people to believe Isreal is on a conquest rather than retaliating against the endless provocation of those fucking Hamas / Hezbollah - ISIS satanic triad.
I remember the Isreali citizens raising hell against the government when they were forced off settlements created in ocupied territories when it was being returned to those that warred against Isreal in the past.
Just my opinion of course.
The part of your comment that is not widely known is that you could have. (That is why the authorities do not like fireworks. They are to easy to weaponize.)
Instead of the Paper Casings that surround your shells try casing them with shreaded metal , or Buckshot, with a paper surrounding that.
Now you can aim that into a crowd and watch the mayhem unfold.
It is amazing what a little gunpowder can do. Now imagine a Bullet. Just how many Grains (weight) of powder is used? Isn't that quite LETHAL?
How much more weight of explosive does your Firework shell have?
Yes you have the power to kill with your fieworks. You just did not realize it...until now.
i have the start of a shopping list, thanks
@Tall Tom
Sorry but projectiles dispersed from an open air explosion verses projectiles fired from within a sealed breach down a 20 inch + tube are two different animals. One could possibly put you eye out and the other one......Not to mention the fact that gunpowder is painfully slow burning compared to more modern synthetic counterparts.
I once threw a sealed can of dennison's chili into a family camp fire thinking I was being cute. About an hour went by and after a couple of beers I had quite forgot about it along with everyone else.
My uncle was in the middle of retelling some dumbass story we had all heard a million times when all of a sudden he was drowned out by a deafening roar, followed by a brief shower consisting of hot chili beans and then complete darkness.
Moral of the story?
Fireworks may make bad improvised weapons, but canned chili is flat out leathal.
Dinty Moore beef stew will do much the same.....
found out on a boat using the propane heater
Is it an open-air explosion if it's encased in metal, like he said? As a teenager did you really never make pipe bombs with M80s?
Ok, with that comment you are unquestionably certifiably nuts. Anyone who has any interaction with you should be branded the same. You will be the belle of the ball at club FEMA.
Miffed;-)
Looks like they took a couple shots at him.
The Izzies are targeting the outgoing radio and microwave transmissions. Standard military practice.
Radio silence in the combat zone.
Allluahhhhh Snaaacccckkbarrrr
For some reason made me laugh lol
why the hell do they put themselves in those situations, for the camera?
so the world can see the genocide happening to Palestinians, that the zionist media spins as israeli self defense.
you're saying that the reporters there, are deliberately choosing to be martyrs?
naive.
more likely, their purpose is to get views and higher ratings.
and i don't know what's actually going on over there, and i won't claim to, unlike many ZH armchair commentators, but it seems to me that if rockets are being launched from gaza into israel, there's a pretty strong case to be made for self-defence.
if fighter bombers are blowing up buildings in Gaza City, is there a pretty strong case to be made for rockets?
See, when you assume Hamas is always the first to unleash violence, you're not only letting your bias show, but your ignorance.
As to the latest episode - the three kidnappings Hamas didn't do providing the excuse to immediately destroy the homes of some 'suspects' without trial or charge - mass arrests - mass beatings, including of an American cousin of an Arab boy set on fire by Jews in "revenge" - and multiple airstrikes on Gaza, killing a dozen or so people, which lead to the rocket fire Israel "responded" .... Yes, having a heavily Jewish, and heavily anti-Arab, Islamophobic media probably means Diane Sawyer keeps her job.
As for an assessment at least closer to the truth: http://original.antiwar.com/justin/2014/07/08/who-started-the-cycle-of-v...
The notion that Israel's assault is about stopping rocket attacks which have generally happened in the past few years as a response to Israeli air strikes [or shelling] is absurd. While a war crime, these rockets have killed fewer people in the past 10 years than Israel has killed in the past 2 days.
It's too bad "anti-Semite" is taken, Palestinians being Semites and all, as a pithy term to apply to people who simply hate Arabs or Muslims generally. Such hate is certainly abundant in the US, carefully stoked, of course by the media.
And of course, one is generally free to say whatever one likes about Palestinians or Arabs, and no pithy term designed to derail an argument will be forthcoming, and no censorship will be applied, and it will not lead anyone to being banned....
But asking people to list 3 major television or print news sources which don't have Jewish ownership/management or simply a disproportionate number [over 3%] of Jews in front line journalist or editor positions to get people to actually think about media bias as to Israel/Palestine [leaving aside media control as a general matter] - why that's forbidden.
So - expressions of hate toward Arabs, unremitting bias against them, a priori conclusions that they were the aggressor - all fine.
But a fair and honest inquiry about Jewish media ownersgip, control, or influence... that's "anti-Semitism".
Makes a lot of sense, of course - until you give it a moment's thought.

you went on a very long, tangential rant there, daffy.
you also made some incorrect assumptions, putting in links called "your bias" and "your ignorance" which linked to things i haven't seen and are not representative of my opinion, that was dishonest of you.
don't be dishonest!
based on what i have heard, however, the rocket attacks came first, and the retaliation against the rocket attacks came afterwards. is that not the case?
Arguably, occupation came first, but what difference does it make?
well, uncle remus, if you were following along in the thread, you would see the original comment was about whether or not the bombing constituted "self defense" on the part of israel.
so, the question was being directly answered.
and arguably, the occupation came as a direct result of an attack on israel from sinai & gaza.
I followed the thread quite well thank you.
And the occupation I speak of starts back further in time, say mid-twentieth century, which would place "self defense" in a wholly different context.
i would not agree that you followed the thread.
a direct question was asked, and then answered.
yet, you asked, "what difference does it make?"
it's clear that you're not following along.
I asked "what difference does it make?" rhetorically.
Silly Comment IMO.
Appears then a lose/lose situation for reporters when we cuss them for bias but attempting to get the real situation on ground they're cunts.
When shit is going on those causing the shit don't want that shit reported on.
Let's all tune into the BBC world service for the TRUTHY
A Whole Lotta Nutin'
That shell should have turned around when he saw the "press" jacket.
No smart bomb there.
looks like a grenade from a grenade launcher. the sparks of it coming in and then it explodes.
More poorly staged propaganda.
I've been under artillery fire - and that was NOT artillery fire. LOL. I agree. Looks like a firecracker. Maybe a grenade at most - but artillery doesn't shoot grenades.
A Rocket Propelled Grenade is artillery. Mortars are artillery. It may be light artillery but it is still artillery.
Lightweight ordinance is LETHAL.
Yep - ask Goliath.
Just now "rocket attack from Hamas on Tel Aviv but it was previously announced by Hamas on Twitter !".
Made me think that i will not survive WWIII, i do not use Twitter.
#justcallmebeforebombing
.
So, hide under a desk and tweet?
Dude that was a dive worthy of the World Cup, come on bro...that was a firecracker...
Cool!
Jeebus.. the entire video is 19 seconds long, but they just gotta stick a damned ad in there anyways..
At least its better than the last 14 second video I tried to watch, I had to sit through a 30 second car commercial for that one.
>:-(
Just get Ad Block plus. Works for me.
(Y'might as well get Hola while you're at it)
The first round to hit looked like it could have been a small spotting round used by recoilless rifles made by the US. I assume similar weapons made and used by other nations do the same. The small (rifle) round with ballistic characteristics as close as possible to the larger recoilless rifle round is fired to ensure correct aim point followed by the much larger round from the recoilless rifle. This reporter was intentionally being fired at from a line-of-site position. US recoilless rifles would have made a much larger explosion due to their large caliber, so this must have been a much smaller caliber recoilless rifle or a grenade launcher that also uses a spotting round.
Hillary would have dodged that.
And Bill would have lit his 'cigar' with it...
...and Barry is drawing a redline defying it to cross.
...I thought Bill's cigars were a little too "wet".
and smell fishy...

The best no doubt.
Bibi is mad because he was not the center of attention during ISIS invasion in Iraq.
Now he's changing that. Of course nobody cares about the Palestinians.
Now Bibi & Israel will get all the attention it wants.
Bibi is mad because he only wants a just peace, obviously, but Obama is a secret muslim - and probably a jesuit lizard, too.
Now that's funny.
What is the war aim here again?
Sinai, Damascus, Beirut. That would secure the State. Gaza and "pain"? Seems like a tough sell.
All the pain money can buy.

Looks like our roman candle fights on the 4th of July.
Why is the public surprised when people die in wars? What makes "press" people immune from dying when they "voluntarily" put themselves in harm's way? "Civilians are getting killed in Gaza? Wow! What a shocking development that is--NOT!
Whatever you believe about the Israeli-Gaza conflict...if Hamas is stashing military weapons, etc. in amongst "civilian" housing and mosques...Well those aren't "civilians" anymore and are legit targets. So Hamas and the Gaza people need to shut up and quit whining.
War is hell and they'll figure it out one day.
The Press is recording history ... of course, the accuracy of historical documents means little to nothing when you write your own sad story and use it to provoke guilt, and hold the world accountable for what was a business deal to transfer WEALTH into Israel, at the cost of a couple million of Jewish lives.
You have no ground to stand on. You should be thankful the world tolerates your ostentatious and obnoxious self-absorbed arses.
You have trouble reading? I'm no fan of Israel or anyone else. I'm simply pointing out the FACTS of war. Whether it is between a couple of primitive tribes or between sophisticated armies. "Civilians" always die...that is maybe the biggest horror of war. And so do reporters die who "hang out" in the warzone "taking notes". Risk of the profession.
So they're recording history...So what? So are reporters on the edge of a volcano. All reporters put themselves in harms way "voluntarily" when covering dangerous assignments like wars. Nobody says they have to do it.
I'm not writing anyones story.
And frankly, I don't give a flying fuck at a rollin' donut what happens in Gaza OR Israel, or anywhere else in the Mid East. Let the players who live there sort it out amongst themselves.
"The Press is recording history .."
If you can't run with the big dogs, stay on the porch.
no resemblence to Ernie Pyle whatsoever
Headline should read: "Flaming shoe wizzes past reporter"...
In Soviet Amerika, flaming reporter wizzes past shoe.
ROTFL!
Yes, I think it is time that we replace Soviet Amerika in all the old Soviet Russia jokes. Given the, ahem, *character* of the contemporary regimes in the US, including the current one, I'd say there is an almost infinite amount of ironic comedic gold to be had to amuse ourselves to the end.
hush puppie
This vid looks like a cheap joke. At least ISIS can afford to kill people for their propaganda instead of scaring them with sparklers.
Looks like the phase integrator blew from a hit by a klingon disrupter.
