00:00What does it all about, by the way?

00:04It's a vigil.

00:06For?

00:08For the death of the leader of Lebanon.

00:14Right. Leader of Lebanon or leader of Hezbollah?

00:18Hezbollah, that's it.

00:20I'm not 100% sure.

00:22I don't take a lot of political interest because I'm not allowed to.

00:26But yeah, Hezbollah.

00:28So they were mourning the leader of terrorist organizations.

00:33Your opinion is up to you.

00:35Well, Hezbollah is legally a terrorist organization.

00:39May I again say, your opinion is your opinion.

00:41No, it's not my opinion. It's the opinion of the government.

00:44Okay, well we're not allowed to take opinions.

00:46Sorry?

00:47We're not allowed to take opinions.

00:48It's not an opinion.

00:49It's not an opinion.

00:51That's your opinion that you're not allowed to take opinions.

00:53It's a legal fact.

00:55That's the view that you stand for.

00:57You're not allowed to take any sort of views on this.

00:59It's not a view. It's illegal.

01:04If that is your view, why are you here filming it?

01:06No, not the view.

01:08Okay.

01:09If that is what it is, why are you here filming it?

01:13If you don't support it or you don't believe in it, why are you here?

01:17To film that it happened.

01:20And the police...

01:22Here to film that it happened and the police.

01:27Why are you filming me?

01:29Why were you filming us?

01:30I didn't film you.

01:31Okay.

01:32No, we're alright.

01:35How about we just go our separate ways, please?

01:37I'm good. You stay in the booth.

01:39That's intimidating.

01:42Why don't you walk off, sir?

01:44Sorry?

01:45Why don't you just walk off?

01:46Okay.
