The by-line was enough to stop my reading.

It must be hurting them or they wouldn't have risen to the bait.

I just saw on television that Human Rights Watch stated that 28 people were killed in Qana, not the 50+.

This is an example of the press at its most arrogant. If the press is gullible and credulous enough to buy whatever propaganda Hezbollah is selling, then anyone who questions it is by this man's account a kook equal to those who cook up conspiracy theories for 9/11. I guess I'd rather be a skeptic of Hezbollah than a dupe of theirs.

Pathetic. The MSM is going to continue to crumble, and we will throw the first shovels of dirt on the turds.

I "like" how the "author" takes the "weakest parts" of the "story" and holds them up as "lack of evidence" of a conspiracy. I guess he didn't have enough "time" to research the whole story.

"As Hezbollah wins support throughout the Middle East in the aftermath of the Israeli airstrike that killed at least 57 Lebanese civilians over the weekend"

"At least 57"?
Why not just make it a nice round 100?
Reality: Only 28 dead, less than half the 57 mentioned.

My question is: What is it about the photos from Qana that made Israel's supporters prefer fantasy to fact?

My question to Mr. Morley: What is it about the photos that you unquestioningly accept the Hezbollah storyline?

Morley offers no refutation of the "conspiracy theory", simply alleging that people who question the veracity of the MSM (and, hence, Hezbollah) are kooks.

Dupe? Or collaborator?

This Morley guy, like most of them at the Post, were most likely disappointed that the children killed at Qana were not Jewish.

Part of the problem is the dumba@@es that fill the journalism schools in this country are out and about in the world, reporting world events, and far too stupid to tell when and if they are being had. They see bodies of children and get misty eyed and then repeat what they are told; so few have any critical faculties at all.

Author criticizes the Israel press while using The Daily Star, a Lebanese (Muslim?) paper, as a major, unquestioned source.

What this moron forgets to mention is that their own terrorist right group that originally claimed it was 60 lives now say it was 28.

The funny part is, the Muslims are really quite awful at lying; they make up these preposterous accounts and charges and with the most hyperbolic language, and with time-lines and evidence that make no sense, and yet are given the benefit of the doubt. The west acts as if their view of reality is acceptable simply because it is theirs; even though no thoughtful man could take any of it seriously. They are like angry (and demented) children who are utterly unaware how shallow their behavior actually is. Listening to the Muslims spin their weird take on an event usually leaves me laughing.

a right-wing equivalent of the Sept. 11 conspiracy theories

The MSM isn't usually as honest when it makes moral-equivalency arguments.

Well. I supposed the guardians of the public trust could put all of this to rest by providing the time stamps from the photographs.

Oh. And they could answer, you know, a few nutball "conspiratorial" questions such as:

Why is there extreme rigor mortis evident in corpses that have supposedly been expired an hour.

Who is the "Green Helmet Man" and what is his relationship to Hizballah.

Why did the building collapse 6-8 hours after the initial strike?

How is it that the people inside the building were not evacuated "due to damage to roads," yet rescue workers were able to arrive?

You know... the usual nutballs questions from the web "conspiracists."

This shows who is misinformed. The death toll is 27.
