EVIDENCE MOUNTS THAT KANA "MASSACRE" WAS A FAKE -- Western Press Suckered Again!
Iconoclast ^

Posted on 08/03/2006 6:51:00 PM PDT by Apolitical

The central piece of evidence leading to this conclusion is the fact, mentioned by IDF officials from the very beginning, that the building collapsed a full seven hours after the Israel Air Force bombing. Why, then, would the residents inside not have been evacuated in the meantime? As Brig.-Gen. Amir Eshel of the Israeli Air Force told reporters Sunday night, "It is difficult for me to believe that they waited eight hours to evacuate it." Without additional evidence, Eshel merely left open the possibility that Hizbullah terrorists, or explosives they left behind, caused the explosion.

"Indeed," writes Robert Spencer for FrontPageMagazine, "it strains credulity that not only did these Lebanese civilians remain in a house that had been bombed for eight hours, but peacefully went to sleep in it after the bombing - since the victims were all apparently sleeping, despite continuing Israeli air bombardment in the area, when the building collapsed."

Gen. Eshel also said that the building was used by Hizbullah to store explosives. This was supported by a letter by Dr. Mounir Herzallah, a southern Lebanese Shiite, who wrote that Hizbullah terrorists came to his town, dug a munitions depot and then built a school and a residence directly over it.............

If all this is true, Israel is certainly getting a bum rap from the mainstream press. But then again, what else is new?

The "Press Stars" are hoping and hoping nobody notices their screw-up in this. But do they feel guilty about giving Qana a combined 100 hours of television credulity???? Nope.

All they care about is access to spectacular photos and ratings-pushing ( as in $$$$$$ ) supine interviews with filthy scum.

Chances are the Hezzies put the bodies in and then blew up the building.

Why were no reporters allowed at the building?

FAKE BUT ACCURATE!

The Israelis admitted they hit the building and it was a mistake.

I always thought the MSM was more Anti-Semitic than Mel Gibson.

I could tell something was amiss when the MSM went away from the story and practically dropped it altogether.

see my earlier thread:

Hezbollywood Horror: "Civil Defense Worker" doubles as Traveling Mortician (Green Helmet Guy)

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1677345/posts

Israel Insider reports many new tidbits to the staging including that Green Helmet Man is actually a mortician from Tyre with a refrigeration truck for moving bodies.

Why were no reporters allowed at the building?

Why were there no men among the dead?

Why were there no survivors?

Why were there no signs of trauma on the victims?

I haven't been following these threads, but surely someone has brought up the Jenin "massacre" from 2002, right? Some outlets were saying hundreds killed then too, and it turned out to be a couple dozen, most of them armed terrorists. Same old same old.

"The Israelis admitted they hit the building and it was a mistake."

It's looking more and more like Israel apologized for something that they did not do.

Which reminds me, has Hezbollah ever apologized for killing innocent Israel women and children.

Quite the opposite. Here's their view:


Hezbollah leader Sheik Hassan Nasrallah has consistently called for the destruction of Israel.

In a speech on February 18, 2006, Nasrallah stated, "Israel is our enemy. This is an aggressive, illegal, and illegitimate entity, which has no future in our land. Its destiny is manifested in our motto: 'Death to Israel.'"

And the terrorist's accusation against our Marines in Haditha fall right into the "staged" category. Support those Marines in Camp Pendleton!

BOR said the truth doesn't matter.

And he still accused Israel (through the Israeli ambassador) of committing a terrible mistake.

But then, the truth doesn't matter, especially to the media.
