Given the name of the cameraman, it could have been a suicide video.

This video and “injured” people as well as the camera angles look suspiciously like the “bollywood” videos.

Does Israel need to put up signs stating the necessity to stay away from the front of their tanks?

It's probably Jimmy (I won't talk to Fox news) Carter's fault anyway.

Shana's jeep was marked "press"...

A fitting target, since the press is generally the enemy!

The IDF has occasionally had to deal with “ambulances” filled with armed men. I can’t fault them for firing on a vehicle marked “Press”. Stuff like that happens in a war zone.

I don't see a problem. The Israelis obviously had no choice, since subject was in a vehicle bearing the markings of an enemy force.

Running a video cam?

We’ve identified on a number of occasions, going back at least to the fall of Baghdad, that a cameraman and a jihadi with a shoulder-launched anti-tank missile/rocket, look the same from the perspective of someone on the receiving end.

It’s best not to embed with jihadis.

Shana's jeep was marked "press" and witnesses said the cameraman was wearing an identifying flak jacket.

Why does this look like a Far Side caption?

From the video it looks like the vehicle was behind vegitation, blocked by view from the tank. I bet the camera man popped up to shoot video and was mistaken for a bad guy. I’m sure from a distance that a video camrea on a shoulder would look a lot like an anti-tank weapon.

You can tell this crap to Ahmad Shah Massoud who was assassinated by Osama Ben Laden using assassins posing as journalist. Very little was said at the time in the way of condemning this practice.

A camera on the shoulder can look like a weapon when viewed through the fog of the battlefield, especially one in close proximity to the enemy.

TARGET! Cease Fire.

In civvies, looking at you from 150 yards away. ATGM gunner, or Reuters cameraman? QUICK! IT'S A LIFE-OR-DEATH SITUATION!

Don't embed with jihadis. Don't point dangerous-appearing things at soldiers.

We went through all this here on FR in 2003 when an M1A1 killed a cameraman shooting from a Baghdad hotel, when we had just entered Baghdad and things were still hot and hairy.

Does "press" mean "Fire" in Hebrew?..................

Maybe the Jeep was marked “REUTERS”.

I saw only a small sign about 2x2 ft square that said TV in bold red against a white background and it looked like it was hastily placed on the hood. Also, I saw more than one “victim” at one part and none of them were wearing a flak jacket.

Something isn’t right there. How is it that there is that one “dead” guy in a perfectly clean white shirt with the one blood stain in what appears to be a posed position.

That just looks staged from every angle.
