There was a time that having a Western passport (US, UK, Australia etc.) meant something. If a Western citizen was in anyway mistreated by a foreign power it meant serious shit. Not anymore.
I distinctly remember his coverage of the opening invasion of Ukraine, and his reporting was questionable at best.
See Adamrises' response.
He should have realized that he was risking his freedom and perhaps his life after the first time the Ukraine government arrested him. If he had any self-preservation sense, he should have GTFO'd right then.
Just because he owns a passport doesn't make him an American. He wasn't born here, he didn't live here, he concurrently had citizenship with Chile, and actively hated the U.S. It takes more than holding a passport to make me call someone an American.
A. Since when is Coach Red Pill a journalist?
B. Since when were we against journalists being tortured?
C. Why should I care when Lira brought it on himself by talking shit about Ukraine and supporting Russia while being inside Ukraine?
D. Lira repeatedly calls himself a Chilean, so why is he all of a sudden waiving around his U.S. passport?

You have no idea what Gonzalo lira was reporting on before his death. He is very much a news source on the war.
We generally don't want journalists tortured unless they are lying propagandists.

So journalists.

I wouldn't have done what he did. That being said, he's still being tortured with our tax dollars.
Doesn't matter. Has passport and citizenship by law.
