What exact proof do we have there bodies in the coffins? Who killed them? The israeli's said to get out of town ....Did the Lebanese or the Hezbollah make the families stay? Were they deaf? Didn't they want to go? Who killed them and where?

Some good questions. It really struck me as a propaganda ploy because apparently the bodies were stored in refrigerated trucks and then taken to the mass grave.

If you have the bodies refrigerated in the first place, it strikes me that they have the time to give them DECENT and INDIVIDUAL burials at the bequest of their parents.

There were 72 bodies buried according to reports. Are they saying the families didn't want to give them decent burials?

I guess there's the possibility that they are victims where entire families were killed by the collateral damage of the Israeli attacks, but I would also believe that relatives would have fought to give them decent individual burials.

Even in Iraq, where upwards of 60 people are killed in single suicide bombings, the families are normally able to provide individual burials.

Thus, on the surface, the logic seems to indicate this was a propaganda event.
