Remember the little Palestinian boy hiding behind his father a few years ago? Remember him getting shot? Remember the Israelis being blamed?
Looks like it didn't go down the way they all said it did.
Amnon Lord, writing for the magazine Makor Rishon, "the Palestinians, in cooperation with foreign journalists and the UN, arranged a well-staged production of his death."
Go read James Fallows' whole article in the Atlantic, it's long, but very worth it.

Hiya!
Interesting story that you've posted. The whole situation is very sad for all innocents involved. Unfortunately, it seems as though both sides like to use their own people as pawns and allow/cause these tragedies to happen. Israel and Palestine are like two little kids that scrap so that they may then present their scrapes and scratches to their parents (the international community, esp. the US) as to say "see, look at what he did. Favor me"
