CNN host Anderson Cooper, who is a seasoned war correspondent, broke into tears as he listened to an Israeli woman, Yifat Zailer, speak about her cousin, a resident of Kibbutz Nir Oz, who was taken as a captive by Hamas terrorists along with her children.
Shiri Bibas, in her 30s, was seen in a heartrending video being led into captivity by Hamas terrorists while holding her two small children Kfir, 3, and Ariel, 9 months.
Shiri’s husband, Yarden, and her parents Yossi and Margit, in their late 60s, are missing and are believed to have been abducted to Gaza as well. Margit has Parkinson’s disease and needs medication to control it.
In another CNN interview, White House spokesperson John Kirby choked up while talking to Jane Tapper about the images of atrocities perpetrated by the Hamas terrorists.
The video will not be posted here due to the graphic content it discusses.

CNN doesn’t get a free pass at all, onions and other modified elements are far more visible….the best news is that your horrid revue of Israel from all times can only permit me to literally say, I don’t care for your tears
tzedikis:
I believe that one should give credit where credit is due.
This video isn’t about giving credit to the media personalities who are seen crying, the purpose of this video is to realize the extent of the support Israel will receive. If the most left wing media outlets have anchors unable to contain themselves its quite likely support for the Israelis will not be for just a few minutes but rather for the long haul
HaKatan, there were no tears. He turned away from the camera for a few seconds. Big deal. I remember on 9/11 numerous reporters were reporting with tears streaming down their cheeks. Crying openly on the radio. Turning away for a few secondsand you want to go gaga for that rasha.
