The devil, I say.
My good friends at CAMERA Snapshots (no relation) have been covering the latest Hamas manipulation of the press fairly relentlessly over the past few days, and a couple of photographic-related items seem to stand out:
There are more photographers than doctors on the scenes at al-Shifa Memorial Human Shields Storage Area Hospital? And to think, almost none of them seem to be able to spot the militants amongst the bunch.
CAMERA has also spotted a non-injured man being paraded around as a victim. Or at least, he surely looks non-injured (as do many of the other "victims" being paraded into al-Shifa Hospital).I'll only add to this by pointing out that faithful Muslims the world over appear to be quite adept at parading around bodies. Or, to be more accurate, reasonable approximations thereof.
Is it therefore beyond the depth of imagination, armed with this knowledge, to suppose that Palestinians are also "dressing up" their victimhood just a touch?
Oh, and finally: ISLAM IS PEACE. And nothing says "peace" quite like dressing your children as killers. (At a peace rally, no less!)
Perhaps the international collective of moral outrage ought to take a nice, long look at themselves in the proverbial mirror before they begin heaping blame on Israel.
UPDATE: Finally, we've found a case of fauxtography that the Press is eager to investigate. Shocking details within.
