I have no TV but I've heard audio of TV "reports" and it seems that radical Islam produces and directs the "news" feeds from over there.
Radio "news" (ABC, CNN, even Fox) mimics TV.
Ping.
OK here's a link that shows the banner being unfurled... Maybe that will help in the sleuthing...

The caption:
Lebanese protesters unfold a poster of U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice during a protest in Beirut, July 30, 2006 after an Israeli air raid on Qana, killed more than 54 people, 37 of them children, in south Lebanon, July 30, 2006.
Should we test the theory and do McKinney? ; )
Thanks for the ping. It does look as though this poster was prepared in advance for just this use.
From the size of the men, it is obvious that poster is at least 20 feet wide.
The Iraqi "baby milk factory" was a gimmick that could only be used once and the bombed wedding party story was recycled too many times. (Added degree of difficulty, explaining what they were doing smack in the middle of war zone packing heavy artillery.)
There is no way in hell some skiffy islamic dirt farmers with $3.00 in the pockets collectively did something like this. They had high-dollar help from people who knew when and where to be. How could it not be staged?
Yes, there are a lot of reporters that need to be shot by the locals.
There is some controversy as to the Qana Photos.
Lot's of good material above.
Convincing discussion, it is hard to believe the Qana tragedy was not staged, though that may be tough to prove. Whether an Israeli mistake or successful Hezbollah ruse de guere, Hezbollah capitalizes on its propoganda value. Watching events unfold across the Middle East, it is all too clear the pattern of conflict exploited by terrorists is theater. Skillful, cunning, lethal psychopathic theater.
The great problem is that Israel is not in Qana to do a forensic examination to settle the issue and the Lebanese, let alone Hezbollah, couldn't be trusted to do so.
Don't be fooled by the 7th century attitude. The terrorists are well schooled in propaganda and are just as familiar with modern technology as you are. Lebanon is a mess now but it wasn't always, and Beirut (where this poster was revealed) is a modern city.
And 'creative-types'... not cut out for the front lines... can be very quick to respond in other venues of support.
Thanks for your insight. After it is printed, how long before it can be hung up? Does it need to dry for any period of time before it is hung up?
Islam murder ping!
