See a Reporter Caught in a Tear Gas & Rubber Bullet Crossfire at the Israeli Border

A reporter and his crew from Russia Today’s Arabic-language channel Rusiya al-Yaum got caught in the crossfire of tear gas and rubber bullets on the Israeli-Palestinian border.

First you see the reporter covering his eyes, then he puts a handkerchief over his mouth to shield himself from the tear gas. A few loud bangs ensue from guns firing rubber bullets, and the reporter picks up his cellphone and yes “Hello, yes, hello, no I am in danger a little bit. Wait.”

Like an intrepid field reporter, he appears back in the frame at the end of the clip and tries to restart his live shot.

    More Blaze zionist inspired propaganda. Cross-fire means both sides were shooting at each other. Who was firing rubber bullets and tear gas at the zionists? Were there two zionist gangs shooting at each other? Read “A Second Look At The Second Coming” to learn about the fraud known as the “rapture and tribulation”. Look up dispensationalism and who “found” the ancient code. Look up scofield and who funded his “bible reference”. The zionists are having a huge laugh at the world’s expense.

    What? Shooting rubber bullets? can’t you see the smoke from the “shots” in the lower left hand portion of the film clip?? it appears to me that someone is staging “a fight”…..those “shots” do not sound like “shots” being fired in his direction……again, look at the smoke to the left of the frame…..at the 26 second point….very interesting…..

      I agree, you get an IDIOT that is so busy trying to show how “evil” the Jewish people are that they prove their stupidity beyond any doubt. That comes from being so hell-bound to prove that the Jewish people are mean and evil that they wind up proving two things. #1 Like I said before: how stupid they are and #2 that the Jewish people are not the evil ones that are in these battles.

      That was my first thought, too. Maybe they have the old map of the U.S.S.R. for reference…

      Absolutely true! There is no Israeli-Palestinian border. There is only Israel. There will be no Palestinian state – at least not within the confines of the lands which encompass Israel, and further, there is no occupation by Israel. Israel lives, and rightly so, in and upon its’ own land.

      The so called Palestinian Arabs, which is a manufactured terminology, can go pound salt. They live much better, by far, within Israel, then in any other state in the Middle East. The only interest of the so-called Palestinian Arabs and the rest of the Middle East Muslim world is to drive Israel, man, woman and child into the Mediterranean Sea – period!

      No, I’m not Newt either, but I stand with Newt, when it comes to reality and the facts concerning Israel.

      If necessary, I will physically fight for Israel and her right to exist. Just provide me with an M-16 and a plane ticket over there (if need be I’ll get the plane ticket together).

      I am well aware there is no Palestenian border. The media calls it that, when in fact it usually is the border of Lebanon. Newt does say that there is no such thing as Palestenian people. I also agree, they are make believe. Leftovers from the war that didn’t want to be a part of the other Arab countries. (heck I dont blame them)
      I stand with Israel, if God asked me to go fight with her, yes i would. I do believe however Israel is more than capable of defending herself. She has a very big God and a lot of weapons. That is why Israel can take care of Iran all by herself…Kablooey!!

      LOL! Should have thought of that myself, but I can’t stand Geraldo and try to keep him out of mind. I still remember Capone’s safe ordeal and how arrogant he was even then.

      @RICHNGADSDEN…….As a side note to my previous post, I saw a report the other day where they said that Geraldo had been in journalism so long, he has become part of the “American language”…..they are correct about that, because I ate Mexican food last week, and suddenly found myself having to go take a wicked Geraldo.
