Reuters Camera Focused On Muslim University Before Israeli Blast

[Albert Doyle]

A Mosque in Gaza was blasted by Israel just a while ago. CNN showed Reuters' camera focused on the mosque before the blast happened. In other words they were told to watch it in advance. What this means is western media is serving as a tool of the Israeli military in order to do psychological warfare against the Gazans and show their holy places being blasted. Those cameras might as well have State Department, CIA, Mossad and Pentagon printed on them.

It is not the only mosque destroyed either. I saw pictures of others in ruins in the last few days. Last night I saw footage of IDF soldiers gong into a mosque and showing arms there with some of the rifles set up to be pointing out windows. Now that may have been the case that Hamas/Fatah/Palestinians are using mosques to shoot from or it may be that IDF personnel have set the stage for the journalists they brought through to see these things.

But the Muslim University mosque that was blasted last night was done propaganda style with the world media cameras aiding Israeli show of force propaganda in advance, meaning the media is a direct propaganda arm of the military.

Sort of like shooting fish in a barrel and filming it.

I saw that same clip and came to the same conclusion, that the cameraman knew something was fixing to happen. Perhaps the clip I saw had already been magnified from the original film, but it looked to me that the cameraman had zoomed in too far to catch the full effect of the blast.
