How does a toy end up in that spot after a bombing and building collapse with no dust on it without having been placed there after the fact?

The doll's clothes are on when he pulls them out of the suitcase and they are torn and her arms are pulled off when he is posing with them after he supposedly pulled them out of wreckage. Now unless we were in a time reversal, then it is clear that he took the toys out of the suitcase, mangled them, and then posed for the pictures.

But even without that, you are correct, there is simply no way those dolls were in that building at the time it collaped. The colors are bright and there is not the least evidence that there was any dust on them or the suitcase.

Plus it appears that nearly all the photos posted by this particular photographer are staged or posed. All the "victims" seem to be posing in the same manner. Nothing about these photos is spontaneous. News photos are supposed to be spontaneous, yet it is clear that the photographer has asked these people to pose for the cameras.

Freepmail me if you find out the source of the product which repels dust and other airborne particles after a bomb blast.

They could use that in asbestos abatement! They could make dust masks out of it that never need to be changed!

And he walked backwards to the suitcase.

[Grampa Dave]

We could spray my 5 year old grandson with that stuff after he is showered and dressed in new clothes.

Then he might look neat and clean for at least an hour.

"Freepmail me if you find out the source of the product which repels dust and other airborne particles after a bomb blast."

They are using a super secret ordinance devised by environmental extremists called a "pucker bomb". When it detonates it immediately sucks up all of the dust and environmentally hazardous airborne particles and deposits them in a neat pile you see right behind the poor displaced victim. Any time you want to know about these things you know who to call.

[P-Marlowe]

From an anatomical viewpooint that is an obvious fake. He is holding his head up with his neck. If he were dead, his head could not assume that position. Plus his body is completely dust free and there are no visible injuries on any of his internal organ sites and no signs of crush injuries to his arms or legs. Plus, if he was dead, how did he manage to get his left arm up on top that piece of building material? Do dead arms lift themselves up?

You don't even need the later photo showing him acting as a rescuer. I'm willing to bet that MOST of the photos from Lebanon are staged or faked. We just have to examine them a little more carefully than our trusted MSM.

[stands2reason]

I had a Minnie and trust me, they are not that easy to clean.

[Grampa Dave]

Hmmm! A pucker bomb designed by enviral whackos.

My wife needs one of those to clean up after me.

[P-Marlowe]

We could spray my 5 year old grandson with that stuff after he is showered and dressed in new clothes. Then he might look neat and clean for at least an hour.

This could put the laundry detergent business out of business. I'll bet Proctor and Gamble has its lawyers and purchasers down there right now with suitcases full of money ready to purchase the patent and keep that product off the market forever!

It's just like the 100MPG carburetor. It will never see the light of day because all these big business interests will keep it off the market. It's a conspiracy.

[Cardhu]

...and he is holding is cap under his arm - didn´t want to lose that.

[Grampa Dave]

This would have more impact than the 1000 MPG carb, I sold to GMC and Ford to keep off the market.

[Centurion2000]

He should have made sure the toys were covered in dust.

My thoughts exactly.

Follow me here for a minute and point out any mistakes in logic or sources. Let's start with the 2 most important pics

From the original thread, where HKMk23 notices in Shermy's pics, the guy appears the be carrying Minnie:

Is it Minnie? If so, and the guy was picking up toys, why was it there on the 28th for Sharif Karim to find? The Pic of the guy was taken on the 27th by Mohamed Azakir

Here's the link to the Yahoo photo with caption

[PajamaTruthMafia]

If the guy was picking up toys (on the 27th according the caption), why was Minnie still there on the 28th for Karim (a different photographer) to photograph? (See post 173)

The only leap of faith needed is that the photo shows him carrying Minnie....

[Henchster]

If you haven't seen it already, this thread is another golden Political-Pundit-in-Pajamas moment that once again, shows the Lame-Stream-Media for exactly what it is, a bunch of anti-American, pro-terrorist, commie-socialist has-beens looking for relevance.

Guess what? Their lame-ass attempt to discredit our country not only failed, but exposed them AGAIN.

Keep up the great work Yahoo/Reuters/AP/CNN. You're the gift that keeps on giving.

[murdocj]

I don't think that's even Minnie Mouse in Pic #2. Its head is too small around the jowls and the face appears to be made of hard plastic, not furry like the Minnie in Pic #3.

I don't doubt that the guy in Pics #1 and #2 is up to something, but I don't know that I think staging Pic #3 is it.

[Sam Hill]

The attack probably occured during the night of the 27th or the morning of the 28th.

Again, this is what I mean by getting carried away.

[Sam Hill]

"From an anatomical viewpooint that is an obvious fake."

I guess you didn't read the other posts on the subject.

The photo went out with a correct caption.

And, yes, only an idiot would try to pretend that was a dead victim.

Why would he be sweating, wearing gloves?

Again, this is the pack mentality going hog wild (to mix animal metaphors) EU Referendum mentioned.

The media misleads and misrepresents events constantly. But they don't do it this ham-handedly.

And again, I'm one of the first people to post about this:

But we need to keep our feet on the ground here.

[PajamaTruthMafia]

So 2 Retuers photographers went to the scene at the same time and gave different dates for their captions?

They are the same location:

[Sam Hill]

You're proving my general point perfectly.

Thanks.
