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

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.

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.
To: Apolitical
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.

Relax, don't worry, 3-4 years from now our Dirty Dan media will still be reporting this story the way the enemy wants it reported. Count on it.

The Hesbollah has successfully pushed the hot buttons of the Western Media. This story is a replay of the My Lai Massacre that occurred in the Quang Ngai Province of South Viet Nam March 16, 1968. This was a time when insurgents from North Viet Nam, using asymmetrical warfare tactics (something the MSM is stone cold senseless about), used the civilian population to shelter and support their guerrilla operations. When U.S. soldiers, frustrated from ambushes by the Viet Cong , massacred an estimated 500 men women and children, the press went ballistic when the story emerged a year later. This single incident turned world opinion against the United States' effort in Viet Nam and won the journalist, Seymour Hersh a Pulitzer Prize for breaking the story November, 1969.
I give this background because I am certain that this mechanism for turning public opinion against a war effort has become the template by the press since then. The writing of Seymour Hersh continues even today with his story "The Grey Zone" in the New Yorker Magazine which tries to link the behavior at Abu Ghraib Prison to the policy of Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld. This is all a pattern of operations by the press to put together the exact elements which caused such a monumental policy shift when it broke the My Lai incident.
Before this gets too long and boring, let me summarize: we at the Free Republic must all be saying in a collective disgust, "Oh no! Not this $**t again!"
