this New York Times photograph of a crowd of Lebanese refugees:
This is probably nothing.
If its photo manipulation, its certainly an incredibly mundane example, and I cant think of a reason why anyone would do it.
Im tossing this to the lizardoid community for comment from the other photoshop geeks out there, without rendering any judgment yet.
In other words, I am not saying this is a definite fake; I know weve got quite a few experts at digital manipulation among our readers, and Im sincerely asking for their opinions.
But look at the image of the man in the lower right corner; the more I examine it, the more it resembles a mans head crudely pasted onto the body of a woman. Note the scarf under his chin, the outlines of something else at the right of his head, and more artifacts at the top and left of his head.
And note the rest of the clothing, which resembles the other womens clothing much more than the mens. The lighting of his face seems off, as well.

I can understand that Stalin would want to paint out some other communist ( and then likey also kill him ).
But I can not understand why the NY Slimes would remove that face.
This is not a big discovery per se, just very wierd.
Then, Pinch is also very wierd.
And I do not understand much of what liberals say or do anyway. Just one of those mysteries.
Besides, what's an African guy doing with a bunch of so-called Palestinians?
Maybe Pinch is pandering to Africans ?
I do not know, as Pinch and the NY Slimes are nuts.
IMHO.
AWESOME!
What is "very hugh"? Do you mean "very huge"?
The photo of the man holding the toys: The background is a pile of rubble yet the man is holding a doll that is in perfect condition..hair and body with the exception of missing arms. The stuffed toys are perfectly clean and crisp looking to have been found in rubble.
this one is related, and a LOT of fun:

Please help get a picture out. It's the picture of a mom holding her baby in a waiting room or something where it is speculated that mystery black man is also in the same picture. See Hot Air, I think, for the picture. I don't know how to post it. In any event, here is why it is important.
I've scoured the other pictures of the purported shelter and especially those which arguably contain our mystery Black Man. I was looking for something approximating the blue draped over his shoulder. Having three had 3 kids of tender years I noted the baby blue color and the very soft texture of the garment draped over black man's shoulder. In any event, while scruitinizing other pictures I came across one taken of a woman holding her baby in the waiting room or whatever it was. Not only does the Blue match up, but the texture matches up. And as a bonus the white matches up also with Mystery Mans collar. I recall that someone kept reading 225 or something like that indicating that the white was too white, pure white. Well here it is and its crisp white because moms always insure their babys wear the cleanest cloths and because babys arent running around getting their cloths dirty. Indeed, what is odd about mystery black mans white and blue wrappings is that they are out of place clean.
I wont speculate at this time, the fact that it is a mom/baby that is possibly photoshopped out may make the fact of this photoshopping in a bit more interpretable. In other words, the why of the matter may become clearer.

WTF??? Whose face are they covering up?
INSTEAD...
Go back to the picture you found, and [Right Click] on it, and choose [Properties]. Highlight and copy the URL it shows on the Properties box: MAKE SURE you get the ENTIRE URL; sometimes it is so long that as you highlight it, it needs to scroll to the rest of it. HINT: It will end with either ".jpg" or ".gif", which MUST be included.
Paste that URL into the following HTML set INCLUDING THE QUOTATION MARKS:
< img SRC="URL OF THE IMAGE"> and DELETE the space between the < and the 'img'; that space is only there so that you can see the coding in this post.
Example: < img src="http://theimaginaryworld.com/pic761.jpg">
TEST the link by first hitting [Preview] then clicking on the link in the [Preview] screen, before doing a final posting.
