Hypocrisy About Bombing Hospitals

If Russian leadership would rather not be accused of committing war crimes, they should stop bombing hospitals. Locals Say NATO Bombed a Hospital in Libya Conflicting reports emerge about NATO's weekend bombing around Libya By Adam Clark Estes 20 May: Three dead as Nato bombs hit hospital By Guardian staff and agencies Three people were killed when a hospital in Belgrade was hit by a Nato missile during heavy air strikes overnight. Yugoslav media said that the strike had injured several others, including two women in labour and medical staff. An operating room and a neurological department in the hospital were demolished. Rescuers evacuated infants and pregnant women from the maternity ward. In Vietnam War US deliberately bombed hospitals by Greg Grandin 34 Somalis Hurt as Mortars Hit Near Mogadishu Hospital Two mortars struck just outside of Mogadishu's largest hospital Saturday, wounding 34 Somalis, doctors said.

Baghdad hospital bombed US forces '19 miles from capital' Saddam defiant in TV statement UK 'will not attack Iran and Syria' US aircraft hit a Red Crescent maternity hospital in Baghdad, the city's trade fair, and other civilian buildings today, killing several people and wounding at least 25, hospital sources and a Reuters witness said. Bill Clinton’s Act of Terrorism BY NATHAN J. ROBINSON In 1998, Bill Clinton ordered the bombing of a medicine factory in Sudan. The country has yet to recover.

Клип начинается с твита Хиллари Клинтон от 11 марта 2022 года, где она заявляет, что российскому руководству следует прекратить бомбить больницы, чтобы не быть обвинённым в военных преступлениях. Затем под бодрую поп-панк-композицию Metro Station «Shake It» быстро сменяются газетные и журнальные заголовки о бомбардировках больниц НАТО и США в Ливии, Белграде, Вьетнаме, Сомали, Багдаде и Судане, включая заголовок о Билле Клинтоне. Шутка построена на обвинении в двойных стандартах: последовательность архивных сообщений показывает, что западные державы и американские президенты сами участвовали в похожих атаках, а весёлая танцевальная музыка усиливает саркастический и обвинительный эффект монтажа. EN: The clip begins with a March 11, 2022 tweet by Hillary Clinton saying that Russian leadership should stop bombing hospitals if it does not want to be accused of war crimes. Set to the upbeat pop-punk song “Shake It” by Metro Station, it rapidly cuts through newspaper and magazine headlines about NATO and U.S. bombings of hospitals in Libya, Belgrade, Vietnam, Somalia, Baghdad, and Sudan, including a headline about Bill Clinton. The joke points to alleged hypocrisy and double standards: the archival reports show Western powers and American presidents involved in similar attacks, while the cheerful dance music heightens the montage’s sarcastic and accusatory effect.
