I have been looking at Reuters, AFP, Getty and AP photos from war zones since 9-11, and at their photos from Israel and the disputed territories for longer than that. The photo of the "child's toy or doll in the rubble" is a staple of those "news" organizations, as is the "Muslim (usually) person standing in front of a bombed building/security wall/olive tree/your meme here with hands and eyes raised to the sky." A famous staged version of such a photo was taken along Israel's security wall about a year ago. I always wonder if the photographer plants the toys and stages other photos.
