Re: Propaganda Using Horrific Images
No, suicide bombing is more like cult programming. Normal people are influenced by more powerful personalities, and they do things that they would not do if they were not under the influence of forceful intent.
No one would willingly offer the bodies of their dead children for political purpose, nor die in a suicidal fog without extreme levels of manipulative coercion.
Let us pray that you are never in a situation where your dead child is offered up for public display, nor where you are convinced that your life is more valuable as a political token than as a father. Neither situation can possibly be blessed by God.

"pray"?
Are "believers" really degenerated sadists like Nazionists?
(Answer: Yes. In Zionist religion.)
Re: Propaganda Using Horrific Images
An interesting update.
One of the Boggers involved in the discussion of these photographs discovered photographs by the same photographer that had been significantly alterd. Apparently this photographer rather clumisily used photoshop to make the Damage in Beirut appear worse. Reuters has suspended him.
Reuters admits altering Beirut photo
**Reuters withdraws photograph of Beirut after Air Force attack after US blogs, photographers point out 'blatant evidence of manipulation.' Reuters' head of PR says in response, 'Reuters has suspended photographer until investigations are completed into changes made to photograph.' Photographer who sent altered image is same Reuters photographer behind many of images from Qana, which have also been subject of suspicions for being staged**
Yaakov Lappin
A Reuters photograph of smoke rising from buildings in Beirut has been withdrawn after coming under attack by American web logs. The blogs accused Reuters of distorting the photograph to include more smoke and damage.
The photograph showed two very heavy plumes of black smoke billowing from buildings in Beirut after an Air Force attack on the Lebanese capital. Reuters has since withdrawn the photograph from its website, along a message admitting that the image was distorted, and an apology to editors.

Re: Propaganda Using Horrific Images
People who have visited Beirut, Tyre, Qana and other cities in Lebanon have said that there is no damage there, not a single building has been hit by the Israelis. It is all the propaganda of hezbollah. Apparently only 3 children in total have died and hezbollah keep shifting their bodies from one place to the other to defame the noble Israelis. Makes sense, after all that great upholder of human rights America would never support a regime which bombs indiscriminately because that would go against its principles of human rights and spreading democracy in the world. Oops forgot it only supports regimes and democracies where people elect the government which it likes. ![]()
Re: Propaganda Using Horrific Images
the way I look at it, there would be no propoganda using horrific images if there were no horrific images to start with right..
I can understand someone's actions taking a body to different camera crews in hope that one or another media outlet will show it.
But, personally I dislike propoganda, it insults one's intelligence, whether it i ppl parading dead bdies, whether its segments prepared with sad music and pictures of destruction of the pennsylvania planecrash, whether it it newscasters pushing their opinions rather than just report the damn story. tell us the facts, show us the raw images .. I dont wat spin, whether overt and stated, or whether covert and psychological with carefully put together vignettes..
Re: Propaganda Using Horrific Images
Ooops,meet the unluckiest woman in Beirut who apparently is still wailing in front of the rubble of her apartment two weeks after another photographer took the same picture. Hope she was paid.

Much to the delight of our own propagandist Ohioguy, here is a real article that all of you should read. I want to see ohioguy’s comments now. I like reading your comments, they just keep encouraging me. This came a little late, but I’m glad, it did.

Propaganda tag shocks Qana rescuer
Dubai: Several hours after Israel’s barbaric bombing in Qana, Salam Daher emerges from the wreckage with the body of nine-month-old Abbas, a blue pacifier still pinned to his nightshirt. It has been hours of heart-rending digging for the Lebanese head of Civil Defence in Tyre.
He holds up the infant and, click, a photographer snaps another picture of Daher, in his trademark green helmet, displaying a civilian victim of Israeli bombs for the world to see.
“I am just a civil defence worker. I have done this job all my life,” Daher says. Which is why he is aghast when some bloggers and websites label him as a member of Hezbollah, showing off bodies as propaganda. “That just isn’t true,” he says.
Daher, a member of the civil defence for 20 years, has been photographed with bodies of the dead in two wars first in 1996 and most recently with Abbas on July 30 both after Israeli attacks in Qana. On April 18, 1996, Daher was one of the first to arrive in Qana after Israeli artillery slammed into a UN compound where 800 people had taken shelter.

Israelis have to stand for the war crimes and pay compensation for all the damage done...but to materialize...Hezb has to be victorious...which is not the case in this battle...so far...
