Pallywood: Palestinians Faking News

Put this in your hookahs and smoke it UI's. A short film about Palestinian manipulation of the world’s all-too-cooperative media. Oh those poor, innocent, oppressed Palestinians. You wouldn't suppose the same sort of shenannigans are going in Lebanon at the moment, would you? Noooooo.

[The film shows how Palestinians stage fake news stories showing civillian casualties. They use reporters and cameramen working for international news agencies, and footage gets used by corporate US news outlets such as 60 Minutes, and in Nadir's accusations of Isreali atrocities. -- Paul]

Imagine if the Palistinians devoted themselves to creating their best possible present and future in the places that they occupy today, rather than righting the wrongs imposed on them years ago by Isrealis (but not by Jordanians and Syrians). Same for the Hezbos in Lebenon.

Important observation, made with unaware import by the unwittingly duped 60 Minutes news reader: "In modern warfare, a picture is worth a thousand weapons." Just amazing. Talk about "Faux News" (is that Nadir phrase, by the way, an exemple of *him* employing a party line / talking point?).

Here's more examples of "reporters" faking news stories that score points against Isreal.
