The Palestinians' Big Lie Machine
(Baltimore Jewish Times) Kenneth Lasson - Several months ago, a Facebook group called "Freedom Will Come to Palestine" published a photograph that appeared to depict an Israeli soldier with his foot on the body of a prone Palestinian girl, a rifle aimed at her head. Readers were urged to "share this photo and let the world see what is really happening." Then an Israeli news organization called Tazpit noted that the rifle was a Kalashnikov AK47 assault rifle - not the standard issue M16 of the Israel Defense Forces. Careful scrutiny disclosed that the soldier's outfit was not an authentic IDF uniform. In short, the photo was a fraud.
