This is an excellent behind the scenes look at the media bias that the Palestinian propaganda apparatus creates.

The battle to free Jenin from terrorists was distorted into an act of genocide perpetrated by the Israeli Defense Forces of more than a thousand civilians. Media around the world jumped in to condemn Israel. In reality 56 Palestinians, more than half of whom were terrorists, were killed, and 23 Israeli soldiers.

How did the Palestinians accomplish this feat of distortion?

Because the Jew-hating lamestream media desperately wanted to believe them.

Nevertheless worth seeing the machine in action.

"At the hospital, Smoddi’s crew does several “takes” of the father’s account of the birth, each with a different spin. In one version, the father claims that the ambulance they intended to meet was held up at a checkpoint for 15 minutes, and he was forced to deliver his infant son in the car, as the ambulance had not arrived. In another telling, the father says: “The soldiers took me down to the ambulance to check my identification and my wife gave birth in the ambulance and went to the hospital.” In each account, Smoddi prompts the father and makes suggestions about the events. Smoddi then prompts the new mother: “The tank stops you while giving birth. You’re alone in the car, talk about your feelings.”

In a private communication with CAMERA, Rehov revealed that he was able to get such footage because as a journalist with a French passport, he was considered a friend of the Palestinians. Born in Algeria, Rehov understood enough Arabic to know that an event was being staged for his benefit."
