@RT_com These subtitles have absolutely nothing to do with what they're actually saying. This is a new low, even for RT. Here is the video with the real subtitles.
As the war progressed, a lot of western fools took the stage to call out Israel for targeting journalists. Reviewing obituaries and social media content (much of it in Arabic) shows that many of these so-called journalists were active militants... Surprise surprise

🎙️ Role: Journalist
Praised repeatedly as a mujahid, “advancing and not retreating.” Died on the battlefields.
Hmm, let me think. I actually lived in Iran for the first 23 years of my life. We were chanting “death to Israel” starting at age seven. I clearly remember growing up with giant countdown banners on highways showing how many days were left until Israel’s annihilation, very wholesome stuff for kids.
Our school textbooks were full of quotes from the Supreme Leader about wiping Israel off the map. And of course, every year, like clockwork, they dragged us out for marches to “liberate Al-Aqsa” and “destroy Israel.” Super educational field trips, really.
Iran’s support for Hamas started with the Islamic Republic. On October 7th, they backed attacks on civilians, then fired at Israel through Hezbollah and the Houthis. They’ve been screaming about nukes and Israel’s destruction since I was a kid and surprise, they’ve been acting on it for years through their little proxy groups.
But now here comes Johnny from suburban America, telling me my lived experience is a lie?
The audacity is truly next level.
Even if we stipulate—for the sake of argument—that ‘Globalize the Intifada’ is not a call to violence (even though it clearly is), what matters is not the speaker’s intent but how the phrase is received by many in the Jewish community.
The far left should try extending to Jews the same empathy and sensitivity it so readily affords others.
The massive outrage when everyone thought that Israel bombed a hospital and the deafening silence when Iran actually bombed an Israeli hospital is so stark.
Cleared for publication:
A few days ago, an Iranian missile destroyed the cancer research facility at the Weizmann Institute. The newly built chemistry building, which was just about to be inaugurated, was also leveled.
Beyond the estimated 2 billion shekels in physical damage, the true loss is immeasurable. Years of groundbreaking research, wiped out. Irreplaceable progress in the fight against cancer, gone in seconds.
This is what the Iranian terror regime is targeting: civilian homes, hospitals, and institutions dedicated to saving lives.
The Iranian regime has shut down the internet to just 5%.
I’m terrified of what might happen to the Iranian people while the world is kept in the dark.
Do you want to talk about humanitarian aid?
Starlink is humanitarian aid.
STARLINK. NOW.
