https://tankie.tube/videos/watch/73404845-6f4f-4617-bc5e-267048591ed1 US envoy to Syria Tom Barrack faced backlash on Tuesday after describing the behaviour of journalists in Lebanon as “animalistic” during a press conference at the Presidential Palace in Beirut. “Please be quiet for a moment,” Barrack told reporters. “The moment this starts becoming chaotic, like animalistic, we’re gone. So, you want to know what’s happening? Act civilised, act kind, act tolerant, because this is the problem with what’s happening in the region.” His remarks drew swift condemnation from Lebanese officials and media organisations. In a statement, the Lebanese presidency said it “regrets the statements made from its platform by one of its guests today.” Wed, 22 Apr 2026 09:02:15 GMT https://validator.w3.org/feed/docs/rss2.html PeerTube - https://tankie.tube https://tankie.tube/lazy-static/avatars/3ba3ff73-a8b6-49c9-add8-9653ef090c7f.webp https://tankie.tube/videos/watch/73404845-6f4f-4617-bc5e-267048591ed1 All rights reserved, unless otherwise specified in the terms specified at https://tankie.tube/about and potential licenses granted by each content's rightholder.
