What do you people make of this video?

I will let you know as soon as it loads.

Interesting indeed.

I think the whole thing is a fucking mess, no matter which side of the story you look it from it's bad news

[Setari]

I think the Mark Twain quote pretty much hits it on the head. The media sucks, it always has, it very likely always will. It doesn't surprise me that much, they've all shown their blatant disregard for truth many times.

That guy has a pretty freaky voice if you ask me.

[Squeeky]

This all started on SA with that smoke photo, and basically exploded.

[Setari]

That smoke photo was everywhere tbh, I've never seen shoddier use of the clone tool in all my internets days.

Let me say this: The photoshop job was atrocious, and who cares if there is actually less smoke coming from a specific source? It's not like the amount of smoke produced by a burning structure has any sort of correlation to people being killed, or even the amount of destruction a fire causes. Some treatment processes for wood might affect how much smoke it would give off when burned. My point? It's fucking smoke, who gives a shit?

[internetn]

Why?

Because its fabricating evidence to support your claim.

They lied, and because of their lie they sought possibly political/monetary benefits because of that.

And if you don't see anything wrong with that this world is really going to hell.

Look what just showed up on CNN:

[internetn]

damn, they like that lady.. Wonder if she gets paid?

[Hamma]

She has to.. thats 3 pictures.

I dont see why such a shit storm is stirred up about a little bit of photoshopped smoke. The smoke was already there, what difference does it make in the amount of smoke? The guy was dumb for photoshopping it, but anyone who can't clearly see that is a photoshop job is also pretty dumb.

There are way more then just that one picture. In the case of the smoke, the photoshop job makes the damage look far worse then it really is. In every single picture the editing and lieing is making israel look bad in the public eye. It is exagerating their wrong doings.

How about that lady though? At least she is making a buck.
