Without prejudice to the provisions of The Hague Convention for the Protection of Cultural Property in the Event of Armed Conflict of 14 May 1954, it is prohibited to commit any acts of hostility directed against historic monuments, works of art or places of worship which constitute the cultural or spiritual heritage of peoples, and to use them in support of the military effort.

Israel has destroyed a great deal of Palestinian heritage without turning a hair, so a bridge is nothing they'd fret about, whether a journalist was nearby or not.

Israel is happy to destroy ambulances, schoolgirls, hospitals, cemeteries, sewage works and water supplies in order to destroy other nations and exterminate Arabs.
Assassinating journalists in order to prevent the truth getting out doesn't trouble them at all.

Vice versa
He's stating the truth - if you'd read the links rather than deleting the threads you'd know about it.
I'd say more of an observation rather than a statement.
An international media association has condemned what it described as a “violent assault” by Israeli soldiers who detained a CNN crew in the occupied West Bank this week. A CNN team was reporting on the aftermath of an assault by Israeli settlers and the establishment of an illegal outpost near the Palestinian village of Tayasir on Thursday when it was detained by Israeli soldiers, the Foreign Press Association said on Saturday.
“The soldiers aggressively targeted the crew and Palestinian civilians present, pointing their rifles at them,” the FPA said, even after the journalists identified themselves. “The soldiers repeatedly tried to infringe the CNN crew’s right to film, ordering the crew to stop filming and threatening to confiscate the camera. “Later, an IDF soldier approached CNN’s photojournalist from behind, placed him in a chokehold, slammed him to the ground and damaged his camera,” said the association, which represents hundreds of journalists in Israel and Palestine.
CNN confirmed the details in its own report on the incident, identifying the photojournalist as Cyril Theophilos.
The FPA, which called for an investigation into the incident, said: “This was not a misunderstanding … It was a violent assault on clearly identified journalists and a direct attack on press freedom.
