A PICTURE YOU WILL NEVER SEE…on BBC or CNN
Powerline ^ | November 16,2012 | SCOTT JOHNSON

A PICTURE YOU WILL NEVER SEE… …on BBC or CNN. Found on Twitter’s #Gaza hashtag, the photo below of “Isareli soldiers helping Palestinian kids escape the rockets from Gaza.”

Found on the IDF Twitter feed, the video below depicts life in southern Israel under fire of the rockets that have rained down from Gaza: “Over the past 12 years, the residents of southern Israel have suffered over 12,000 rockets fired at them from the Gaza Strip. This is what their life has looked like over the years.” I think it’s safe to say you won’t be seeing this brief video compilation on the BCC or CNN either.

Still remember the photo of a Palestinian caught in some city street crossfire. The pic made headlines and a story grew around it. A story of how this man has to protect his daughter from Israeli gunfire or perhaps it was 'ours' (whatever).

A sympathy story; nonetheless; and we know who the 'victim' was. Only problem; it could not have been more clear; more obvious; that this Father was using the child; as a shield for his own protection.

Of course; the propagandized version served better; the narrative; and no one challenged it.

Someone here; probably remembers this - and better than I per actual details. But the images shared here; nail the reality; as in the 'truth of the matter'.

Nice pic, though I always thought the Israeli woman looked like Klinger....The heading there is “The Spirit of the IDF”, which couldn’t be more true. :)

Yea, I've never liked that grinning look.

The heading there is “The Spirit of the IDF”, which couldn’t be more true. :)

Thank you very much PVT. I've always wondered.

Well, not grinning but blankfaced.
