The video is in an embedded tweet.
Here's a YouTube link I found, doesn't have the gaza footage. https://youtu.be/hyqFFsRifFM?si=AInna89KnC3CXGIH
Here is an alternative Piped link(s):

the idf guy saying 'thats not what we're saying' when that literally was what he was saying and he knows it and how he fucked up
Modern journalism: telling us rather than showing us.
Fair. It does have the news reporter tweet with the video embedded though.
They might have added it later, I’m not sure, but the video is in the X post at the bottom of the article - I just watched it through the article.
It’s almost as if, and hear me out guys, ISRAEL ARE NOT THE GOOD GUYS HERE.
The Good Guys™ strike again!
Strike I see what you did there :)
I think he just didn't know what else to say when he pretended they were losing sound.
I genuinely feel bad for any liberals who haven't figured out they're basically just polite nazis. That's gotta be a really rough realization. Spending your entire life thinking you're doing the right thing only to suddenly have it revealed that everything you were living for was a lie.
Now for those of them that are aware what liberalism stands for and are still going? Straight to hell.
"How is it that we hear the loudest yelps of liberty among the riders of negroes?"
You somehow twisted this in your mind as some kind of gotcha that lets you preen in your selfish politics.
Scratch a liberal, a fascist bleeds
Define "liberal". Then maybe the rest of what you said can fall in place.
Not OP but I think they meant supporters of neoliberal economic policy and somewhat progressive social policies. "Liberal" like American liberal politics. The point being that they think they have good politics because they think trans people are people and aren't the kind of right wing fanatic we get a lot of. They're "left" to the extent that the American political spectrum allows for without understanding what "left" actually means, without being conscious of the overarching machinations that make then think their politics are good even as they continue to feed a system that intentionally blinds them to any honest criticism.
supporters of neoliberal economic policy and somewhat progressive social policies. "
There's nothing progressive about airstrikes on civilians. Never has been.
The somewhat progressive social policies are reserved for the domestic market. Statistically, US democrats are the party who starts wars and UK liberals always support these wars as we saw with Iraq and Afghanistan.
Liberal: White, far-right, genocidal, usually rich and supports literal nazis because their opponents are communists.
In a modern day context: Supports Ukraine because they're white and full of nazis, supports Israel because they're white and full of nazis.
A Russia apologist, Surprise Surprise. I'm shocked, shocked I tell you...
I fucking hate this so much. Anyone whose against nazis in Ukraine must automatically be a russia apologist. There is zero other explanation. Flat out the one case where they can flat out support nazism and then spin it like you're the one whose problematic for calling it out.
You do realize how dangerous that is, right? Remember how Prager U called everyone they didn't like communists and they were so universally disliked that it resulted in a huge surge in people identifying as communist? What makes you think this won't happen here?
And that's why they do it. It's two fascist nations are fighting, they want you to pick a side because regardless of which one you do, they win.
These Russian sock puppets try really hard.
Pretty sure they ment left wing liberal, you're thinking more of libertarian I think? Or are you just really deep in the chamber?
Everything he said applies more to Democrats than libertarians.
The democrats are far right?
By the standards of the rest of the world, absolutely.
Only if the rest of the world is China and Cuba. Sure they're not very left wing but slightly right of centre is far more accurate than 'far right'
In theory maybe. In practice china is to the right of the US. They're a hypercapitalist oligarchy wearing an "I'm totes a communist" hat.
Ok so the democrats are far right, China is further right and I guess South Korea or somewhere is off the map and out the building.
I really don't think just calling everyone we have a disagreement with right wing as if it's a synonym for evil is an especially useful strategy.
Because like I know it's hard to hear but the Scandinavian countries are pretty shitty too in a lot of ways. UK and most the EU is right of the democrats, even Kier (labour leader) is to the right of Biden.
We're going to have to say Christiania is centrist at this rate.
Right wing doesn't mean "bad". It means "view certain social orders and hierarchies as inevitable, natural, normal, or desirable, typically supporting this position based on natural law, economics, authority, property or tradition. Hierarchy and inequality may be seen as natural results of traditional social differences or competition in market economies."
All of those things apply to both China and the Democrats. I don't care if they call themselves the left, or progressives, or socialists, or communists. They are very far to the right.
So basically no one on earth is left wing according to you? Is anyone even medium right or is everyone ultra right wing?
Henry Kissinger
Not sure if it seems like the headline claims, but in my case, from what I saw, Wolf had a cutout over the satalite feed, maybe on purpose? I hate it when the video isn't added in the article.
It's "at a loss for words", not "at a lost of words".
CNN’s Wolf Blitzer seemed at a loss for words at the justification being used to bomb a refugee camp in Gaza.
