It's ironic that you idiot decided to post the picture of this little dude. His name was Muhammad Al Durah, his was reportedly (french reporting) killed by an Israeli soldier in cross-fire, he became the symbol of the second intifada...Except of cause this is not what really happened:
French broadcaster France2 lost its case and a large portion of its credibility yesterday when its appeals court called their Al-Dura story a hoax and reversed a lower-court ruling on a defamation case. Philippe Karsenty was vindicated in his criticism of France2 when he called their video of a supposed murder of a Palestinian child by Israeli soldiers staged for propaganda purposes.
...
The reversal and the resultant implosion of France2′s credibility shows the lengths that some will go to paint the Israelis as the source of all woe in the region. Instead of reporting objective truth, the âjournalistsâ at France2 decided to propagate lies as a means of telling the narrative they prefer. They couldnât actually find examples of Israeli soldiers deliberately killing unarmed children, but France2 believed that they did, so they staged it and passed it off as truth. And unfortunately, they found many people who believed them despite the many inconsistencies in the video â such as the child moving after his supposed death and the lack of blood in the scene, rather odd for a gut shot. http://hotair.com/archives/2008/05/22/french-court-rejects-al-dura-hoax/
Aye, french people are big Pallywood fans... It would be interesting if Strauss Khan became french president, hopefully the typical propalestinian stance of the french populace could evolve a bit - the fact that a jew is the favorite to be elected president would point though that the same french population is largely non antisemitic.
