So it originally she said Chemical Weapons and it was doctored to her saying Napalm.
What is your evidence for this claim? The first piece of audio sounds far more natural. It also doesn't fit the narrative the mainstream media has been pushing since the beginning of the conflict.

The mainstream media has made the logical fallacy of starting off with a pre-determined narrative and attempting to fit evidence around it.

There is a good reason why the footage would be doctored to say "chemical weapons".

Prove me wrong if you can.

OFCOM does not regulate the BBC (not yet anyway) so they could not investigate and rule on the BBC news report. They were only able to report on any inaccuracies in the RT report..
How very convenient...

And that doesn't strike you as suspicious in any way?

That one media outlet is not subjected to the same scrutiny as another?

Where is the transparency?!

Just out of interest, why are you posting all this today when the videos are years old?

The story came to my attention today.

What is your analysis of the video I posted and the reason for the doctored footage?

They probably went back and corrected the video once more info was known. That is the most logical explanation.

Why does your OP say 'footage has emerged' (making it sound like a breaking story) when this is all years old?

I'm no fan of the BBC news, but why would they change "Napalm" to "chemical weapons"? the use of either against civilians is banned and both would be war crimes.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Napalm

International law does not specifically prohibit the use of napalm or other incendiaries against military targets, but use against civilian populations was banned by the United Nations Convention on Certain Conventional Weapons (CCW) in 1980. Protocol III of the CCW restricts the use of all incendiary weapons

Chemical Weapons is the specific narrative the BBC have been pushing and is the word that has been doctored into the footage.

Why would they not just re-flim the segment if new information arrived? Why have they rearranged the dialogue and simply replace a single, operative word?

Because it's a war zone, not a theatre production.

Not a theatre production? Tell that to the terrible BBC actors walking around like zombies pretending to be victims of chemical weapons.

I notice you still haven't debunked that video yet...

What is suspicious? It's always been like this, an accident of history.

Why do you think it is suspicious?

Is it a coincidence you are promoting pro-RT, anti BBC messages on the same day that Russia is caught faking athletics anti doping samples on a massive scale?

Exactly. A story years old making a comeback, and the Putin puppet army doing his work.

Why shouldn't the BBC be held to similar standards of scrutiny to RT?

Being an "accident of history" is a convenient excuse, not an explanation as to how the BBC is impartial despite being immune from the kind of criticism other news outlets must be subjected to.

Real?! You think a bunch of people staggering around like zombies and showing peace signs to the camera is real?

This is exactly what I mean when I say people believe literally anything the BBC tells them.

They are practically sticking their middle fingers up to us and saying "You'll believe anything!!!".

Here is a video showcasing the original and doctored footage back to back:

You don't even know what the alt right is, merely using it as a way to shut down the thread.

I just commented on a video where they clearly re shot the scene. The first she mentions napalm the second it's chemical weapons.

Just look at the way their clothes have been cut, every person is wearing clothes that the level of damage would suggest massive damage/loss of limb, listen, I am not a RT fan, they are a Russian propaganda outlet, but that doesn't mean I have to act stupid on the BBC's behalf ffs. Obvious fake is obvious.

Re dubbed yes sorry.

Out of interest do the Russians or Syrians still use phosphorus shells? Would explain why they wanted it changed from napalm to chemical weapons.

Do not google image phosporus weapons if you have a weak stomach!!!! It's not the most pleasant of sights
