David, it's here on the Fox News website: foxnews.com The Palestinians are said by some to be masters of playing the victim, and the Israeli Defense Force has released what it sees as the ultimate example. It's this video, from an overhead Israeli spy drone, shot last Sunday in Jenin. Protesting Palestinians are carrying what appears to be a body wrapped in a green flag, or mourning cloth. But they drop the guy. He then picks himself up and lies back down on the flag, to be wrapped up and carried on again. Tenchusatsu

Now, an onlooker missing this coverage would have thought, "there goes another poor Palestinian civilian killed by the mean old Israelis", when reality is the entire parade was a hoax. These people are liars and the press is part of the lie. I am not sure what press [aside from Reuters] is coloring the situation but I watch NBC and MSNBC and they have been pretty straight about what's happening in the WB. Its clear that the level of destruction in some camps is pretty bad but they have also made clear that there have been no massacres unless you count the tens or 20s of deaths as massacres. Frankly, I think the only people who believe the Palestinians when it comes to this stuff are those people who want to believe it, and for them, it doesn't matter what the press reports. BTW the situation you describe re the dead faked victim would be funny if it wasn't so pitiful.
