Her comment suggests the videos of interest are being filmed by the freedom fighters.

I am unaware of any armed Palestinian group which fights the Israeli government for their independence. Who is the only other group that someone could (somehow) construe as freedom fighters that's taking videos?

Unless she's calling the Israeli army freedom fighters and they have people filming in their midst, there's only one group she can be talking about, and they went through a music festival with guns.

Don't stop at just reading the comment. Comprehend it. Analyze it.

Edit: And that includes your own comments. There are indeed other groups involved which aren't Hamas, and she was referring to civilians. Incredibly poor wording if she's telling the truth, but I see no reason to not give her that benefit of the doubt.

So instead of responding to my actual point, you went on this lengthy rant. K.

The edit was me eating crow and saying she should get the benefit of the doubt.
