I have nothing against the video in and of itself (I imagine there's a certain value for some people in seeing images of atrocities, makes things more concrete)

However, I fail to see how a CNN clip could fall under the Breadtube umbrella. Apart from the content of a news reel being quite different from typical Breadtube content, CNN is in no way analysing the current conflict in Gaza through a leftist lens.

I agree. And I normally wouldn’t post content from CNN. But there are people who may visit this community and benefit from seeing the genocide from a mainstream news source. The fact that this aired on CNN could indicate a turning point in perspective. This video was not under Israeli IDF supervision.
