I don't know if this has been brought to anyone's attention yet, but in a quick search of the authenticated Reuters photographs attributed to Adnan Hajj, I found the following two.
One is from July 24 of a bombed out area in Beirut, with a clearly identifiable building in a prominent part of the shot.
The second is of the exact same area, same buildings, same condition, with a woman walking past "a building flattened during an overnight Israeli air raid on Beirut's suburbs August 5, 2006."
JOHN adds: Another example of the same phenomenon--not an identical photo, but two photos of the same woman, obviously taken at more or less the same time but published two weeks apart--in each case with a caption saying that she had lost her house to an Israeli bomb the night before!

"Is it even a woman? These clowns stop at nothing."
That question is very valid when you look the size of its hands and wrists.

WHAT IS YOUR POINT?
Now on this one you've found something. Definitely bogues.
That picture is totally real!
Oh, it's a woman alright.
Think Helen Thomas.
Read the caption, read the dates. What is intimated having occured according to what is shown in the pictures? And when is it reputed to have occured? Are we to infer that the building was rebuilt within two weeks and then destroyed a second time? If not, then what's wrong with the content and substance of the reporting?
Is there any real expectation that a news image should accurately present an image of news, and that the caption should accurately reflect what the image is showing?
If not, why not just splash image #1 from post 67 onto the front page, caption it: "IDF soldier intimidates poor helpless displaced Lebanese civilians"? The fact that image #1 in post #67 is of an allied soldier in the Iraq invasion 2003 is irrelevent in the current scheme of things. Fake news is accurate if the seriousness of the allegations being made need an answer.
Very nice!

From the Ex. Makeover comments: "A woman reacts as she surveys the damage to the southern suburbs of Beirut, site of intense Israeli air raids, August 1, 2006. REUTERS/Issam Kobeisy"
Not as totally obvious that it's the same woman, but if you enlarge the jpg you may be able to just barely make out the same mark under her right eye.
Same photographer as the July 22 photo - Issam Kobeisy.

Looks like the Islamists have more than one mole inside the global media.
Zec 12:6 In that day will I make the governors of Judah like an hearth of fire among the wood, and like a torch of fire in a sheaf; and they shall devour all the people round about, on the right hand and on the left: and Jerusalem shall be inhabited again in her own place, even in Jerusalem.
