Israel deliberately targets journalists & medics – Steve Sweeney

Author: The Communists March 30, 2026 Duration: 11:42
In this powerful first-hand account, journalist Steve Sweeney describes surviving a deliberate Israeli airstrike that targeted him and his colleague while reporting for RT News in south Lebanon – a targeted attack on journalists that can only be described as a war crime. The attempt on Comrade Sweeney’s life was unsuccessful, but left him with a shrapnel wound through his left arm, and Steve explains exactly why he believes Israel knew who and where they were. He and his crew were filming at the destroyed Kazmiyeh Bridge, in full view of a Lebanese military post whose occupants had cleared them for filming. Beyond his personal experience, Sweeney provides crucial on-the-ground reporting about Israel’s latest ethnic-cleansing operation. This time on a scale even larger than the 1948 Nakba. The systematic destruction of bridges to cut off southern Lebanon from the rest of the country, and the displacement of one million people (20 percent of Lebanon's population) are all part of a long-held Israeli objective of seizing all Lebanese land to the south of the Litani River – a part of the Greater Israel project. Steve exposes how the Israelis, just as they did for more than two years in Gaza, are routinely and relentlessly destroying civilian infrastructure. He also documents the heroic work of Lebanese health workers, who themselves are being systematically targeted. And he reports on the fierce resistance being mounted by Hezbollah forces, who have already destroyed more than 30 Israeli tanks and are using guerrilla tactics to prevent the zionists from succeeding in their goal of establishing a physical occupation.

Tune into Proletarian Radio for a grounded and unflinching look at the world through a Marxist lens. Produced by The Communists, this regular broadcast cuts through the noise of mainstream news to offer a class-based perspective on unfolding political crises, international conflicts, and the struggles of working people everywhere. Each episode delves into current events with a focus on material analysis, drawing from the theoretical framework of scientific socialism as developed by the CPGB-ML. You’ll hear detailed discussions that connect daily headlines to broader historical and economic forces, providing context often missing from other reports. This isn't just commentary; it's a tool for understanding the root causes of inequality and imperialism. The aim is to arm listeners with knowledge that informs action, fostering a deeper comprehension of how to challenge the status quo. For those seeking a substantive alternative to conventional news cycles, this podcast serves as both an educational resource and a call to collective organisation. The conversations here are built on the principle that to change the world, one must first systematically understand it.
