While Israel declared an end to its three-week offensive in the Gaza Strip less then an hour ago, videos like this one help perpetuate the need for coverage in war situations. The repetition and accustomedness of the viewer as grown in parallel with the accessibility of the digital tools of production and diffusion, while video shows a balance of grassroots embedding with a potential for important outreach. It is in my view a form of response to the Israeli embargo on journalist in the beginning of this conflict.
