A Palestinian militant fires toward Israeli troops during an arrest raid in the West Bank village of Qabatiyeh near Jenin, Tuesday, Aug. 8, 2006. Four Palestinians were wounded when the army arrested an Al-Aqsa Martyrs' Brigades militant, Palestinians sources said. The army said two Islamic Jihad militants were arrested during the operation.

On Frontpage mag, War Blog, a photo under "PALESTINIAN HUMAN SHIELD WATCH" (sorry, I can't link nor post it here) it's attributed to the AP, the guy firing looks pasted in. Notice the people in the backgroud are recoiling from the gunfire but the guy firing isn't, he looks like he's posing.

The gunman is lit from directly above. The spectators are lit from upper right.
He's been pasted in.

Don't know. Would be good to not cry wolf.
There are a lot of staged images out there.
Hot Air had one from NY Times of a "bombing victim" who appears to be running around helping a lot of people in other pictures from the same event.

It looks like the shooter in the foreground has different lighting than the people in the background.

Sun appears to be above them and behind them (2 coordinates, not 2 suns). Also the wall is affording some shielding of the light source.
The lighting appears that it could be genuine.

You would think they'd all be looking where the shooter's firing, and not acting like they've never heard gunfire before.

The mag is right below the sling. YOu can also see a shell casing in mid air outlined on the shirt of one of the guys watching.
I don't think this is phony. It sure indicates these guys surround themselves by civilians and no doubt if the Israelis had targeted him; his body would have been GONE and only the civilians he was hiding by left for the media!

It looks like the shooter in the foreground has different lighting than the people in the background. Yes. It looks like the light in the background is coming from the viewers right, while the light on the shooter is coming down more vertically.
