They Never Learn: CNN Withdraws Apparently Faked Video of CPR Attempt on 'Dead' Palestinian Child

They Never Learn: CNN Withdraws Apparently Faked Video of CPR Attempt on 'Dead' Palestinian Child

By Tom Blumer (Bio | Archive)

See Jan. 9 Follow-up -- "CNN Doubles Down: Reposts Withdrawn Video of Apparently Faked CPR Attempt on 'Dead' Palestinian Child"

Not that it ever really went away, but fake news is back in Gaza, and the worldwide media is being played.

Many readers will likely detect the fakery in the linked video pictured on the right on their own (HTs to Charles Johnson at Little Green Footballs [LGF] and Bob Owens of Confederate Yankee via Instapundit).

The video purports to show the death and hasty burial of a cameraman's 12 year-old younger brother, one of two children allegedly killed on the roof of their home in rocket fire from an Israeli drone.

A seemingly pretty knowledgeable LGF commenter spotted what many inexpert readers who see the video will also catch (bolds are mine):

I’m no military expert, but I am a doctor, and this video is bullsh-t. The chest compressions that were being performed at the beginning of this video were absolutely, positively fake. The large man in the white coat was NOT performing CPR on that child. He was just sort of tapping on the child’s sternum a little bit with his fingers. You can’t make blood flow like that. Furthermore, there’s no point in doing chest compressions if you’re not also ventilating the patient somehow.

Story Continues Below Ad ↓
<a href="http://harvest.AdGardener.com/noscript.aspx?s=16&c=fa99ab07-42c2-43e0-abfb-b47f96e4b9b9" target="_blank"><img src="http://harvest.AdGardener.com/noscript.aspx?s=16&w=336&h=280&c=fa99ab07-42c2-43e0-abfb-b47f96e4b9b9" width="336" height="280" border="0" /></a>

(no paragraph break in original) .... In a hospital, during a code on a ventilated patient, somebody would probably be bagging the patient during the chest compressions. And they also would have moved the bed away from the wall, so that somebody could get back there to intubate the patient and/or bag him. In short, the “resuscitation scene” at the beginning is fake, and it’s a pretty lame fake at that.

So the question is, were they re-enacting the resuscitation scene by repeating their actions on a corpse, because the child had died earlier? It’s likely that the answer is no, that child is still alive, and is just an actor pretending to be a child who was killed. Why do I say that? Because the big guy in the white coat, if he’s really a doctor, nurse, nurse’s aid, EMT, or any sort of health care provider at all would be entirely aware that tickling the boy’s sternum doesn’t really look like actual chest compressions. If the boy was dead, the man would have done a more convincing job in compressing the chest. The taps on the chest that he’s doing are the sort of thing you see in bad TV dramas .....

Here's what the video link at CNN looks like now (except that the orange box is mine). Note that the false narrative at the top right still remains:

CNN should have known better. The doctor involved in the scene, Mads Gilbert, as described with copious links by the Committe for Accuracy in Middle East Reporting in America (CAMERA), is a Marxist radical with a long-standing hatred of Israel and the United States (some of the links to a Norwegian language site may not be suitable for children's viewing):

Gilbert is a radical Marxist and a member of the political Red (Rodt) party, a revolutionary socialist party in Norway. He has been a pro-Palestinian activist since the 1970's and travelled to Lebanon in support of the Palestinians during the first Lebanon war in 1982. He has long been a vocal opponent of Israel and the U.S. Gilbert has acknowledged that he cannot separate politics from medicine, stating, "there is little in medicine that is not politics." He even criticizes the group Doctors Without Borders for providing medical assistance to both sides in a conflict instead of taking a strong stance and supporting only one party. In a 2006 article in Nordlys, journalist Ivan Kristoffersen lamented the fact that Gilbert allows his humanitarian efforts to be politicized by his radical agenda.

The extent of Gilbert's political agenda and animus toward Israel and the U.S. is best evidenced by his radical support for the 9/11 terrorist attacks against the U.S.

In an interview with the Norwegian daily, Dagbladet, shortly after the attacks, Gilbert stated: "The attack on New York was not surprising, after the policy that has led the West in recent decades. I am upset over the terrorist attack, but am equally upset over the suffering which the United States has created. It is in this context that the 5000 dead people must be seen." ..... When asked by Dagbladet if he supported the terrorist attack on the U.S., he replied: "Terror is a bad weapon, but the answer is yes, within the context I have mentioned."

A Jerusalem Post editorial that appeared on January 6, the day before CNN's coverage, should have alerted the network to be skeptical towards Gilbert:

A WORD about Dr. Mads Gilbert: It turns out he's no neutral medical man, but active in "solidarity work with Palestinians" for 30 years. Responding to 9/11, Gilbert didn't rush to New York's Bellevue Hospital to offer his services. Instead, he defended the moral right of the "oppressed" to have launched that attack.

Maybe CNN, instead of having on-air news readers like Kyra Phillips taking strong umbrage at the idea of Joe the Plumber reporting from the Middle East, should put the blue-collar guy on their payroll to get more credible journalistic results.

This is just one example of Mr. Gilbert fooling the media by posing as an impartial humanitarian doctor. Gilbert also was quoted this week without question by the BBC, Canada's Globe and Mail, and ABC Online in Australia. He also speaks on camera at about the 1:00 mark in this CBS Evening news video available at YouTube.

This is just another in a long line of examples proving that when it comes to news out of the Middle East, absolutely everything coming out of Palestinian- or terrorist-controlled areas must be treated with very heavy skepticism.

January 8, 2009 - 22:52 ET by thebutlerdidit

I saw the video earlier at LGF, and it was sooo bad. I have no experience with medical stuff like this, and I was thinking it was fake from the get-go. When they take "the body" to bury, his head doesn't loll around, but appears to be well supported by neck muscles, or rigor, but the rest of him isn't stiff looking. The clip show where a missle supposedly hit the house, but there's no singeing or rubble looking damage. The dead give away, to me, was the plastic chair that's still on the roof. Yeah, the kid was "playing" on the roof. More likely he was a look-out. Someone in the comments at LGF noted that there were women at the burial site, and that this is not allowed, I have no idea, but it wouldn't surprise me. CNN keeps looking dumber by the day.

Faking this stuff isn't new

January 8, 2009 - 23:08 ET by doug1950

Years ago the Palestenians were having a funeral procession going along while they were being filmed by one of the many left leaning networks. There was screaming and yelling, weeping and yes even some curses being hurled about. A couple of minutes into the funeral all hell breaks loose and the mourners scattered like a busted covey of quail dropping the coffin. The "dead" man suddenly leaps up and hauls azz for cover along with his buds.I bet he never volunteered to be the dearly departed again.

It is on this video sir.

January 9, 2009 - 06:28 ET by RR GOP

Many of us are still clinging to the notion that journalists actually report the news and know what they're talking about because that is the way it's supposed to be.

On the surface we realize that they are nothing more than Leftists instilling propaganda and ignoring anything that goes against their ideology.

Also, if you listen to them carefully (yes, even the ones on Fox News) these are about the most unknowledgeable people I have ever seen. They do not recall obvious connected events and people from the past in current discussions. It's as if any previous knowledge evaporates with every new item that comes up-it's all disjointed.

For example, Foley's (R) name came up on H&C last night but not, uh what's his name ( Tim Mahoney (D)) who was caught in an almost identical scandal.

They seem to have few life experiences, little knowledge of geography, classic literature, science, economics (except their own of course) etc. Few have been in the military so they will routinely call any tracked vehicles (like APCs and self-propelled howitzers) 'tanks' but yet the average American sits there and assumes that they are knowledgeable on all things.

Actually, they have a lot in common with politicians come to think of it! ;-)

One of the 24% who thinks George W. Bush was a great President. One of the 89% who wants to bring back the stock and pillory.

Actually, what you're describing is a chronic lack of ....

January 9, 2009 - 07:50 ET by Tom Blumer

.... cultural literacy. E.D. Hirsch wrote a book or two on the problem about 20 years ago that compiled a list of facts, figure, events, and words a truly literate American should know, as well as (IIRC) a list of books a truly literate person needs to have read. He was of course mostly ignored except for being ridiculed for advocating the learning of "useless trivia."

I remember reading through his first list shortly after it came out and thinking that while I knew a pretty good percentage of items there, my parents probably knew more, and kids going to school currently were learning very little.

Your comment and observations support that belief.

Gee CNN always leaving salt on the wound, especially when the victims are Israel and USA (especially Republican Administrations).

This is an unballanced war or asymetrical war...

January 9, 2009 - 08:22 ET by c5then

The Israelis are fighting with weapons and troops while the "palestinians"/Islamists are fighting using PR and misinformation. The Islamists know that they cannot beat Israel in a 'real war' using troops and bullets and rockets, etc. This was conclusively proven twice before (those of you who know history know what I am talking about). Therefore, the islamists are using propagande to try and trick the rest of the world into doing what they can not. Every action by Hamas is aimed at getting Israel to do something that they can use in their propaganda. The rocket firing campaign was not meant to injur Israelis (although if that happened they concidered it a plus). It was meant to piss off Israel and make them do exactly what they are doing now, knowing that civilian casualties would be inevitable. In fact, the ammo storage locations and the launch locations are chosen to maximize the possibility of civilian casualties.

Islam doesn't care about free choice, it only cares about the result that it can use in furtherence of the lies. If some children have to be sacrificed and called martyrs (against their will) then Islam is perfectly OK with that, as is evidenced by the current events. If the 'journalists' have to fake footage to get the propaganda out, then they will do that. If they have to photoshop some images, that's easy to do. Remember that an Islamist is an Islamist first and foremost. Their vocation is simply a means to the end.

You would have assumed that CNN's Dr. Sanjay Gutpa would have alerted them to the hoax, but I guess he is too busy signing autographs and getting a publisher for his future book all lined up.

I would love to hear Sanjay explain how this is the correct way to do CPR, and all the medical professionals/nurses/EMTS, etc in tv land thinking, "WTH?" Just like Tom's wife, walking by and just glancing at ot and knowing it was wrong. Like I said, I have no real experience, but so much of that looked wrong to me. I still want to know if what I read about women not being allowed at the burial site is true or not, anybody know anything about this stuff? And I don't know if it was already mentioned, but shouldn't they be bagging him? I thought you did both.

Worst. Fake. Yet.

January 9, 2009 - 18:33 ET by Kimberly

No, seriously, this has to be the worst fake vid yet. I'm trained in CPR and emergency first aid and I immediately spotted the "tickle me Hamas" chest compressions and no intubation. Even your beginner CPR knows that chest compressions without oxygenation is wrong. Then the teeny tiny blood spot on the bed was the capper. Truly, I saw better acting in a '70s Emergency! episode.

lol

January 14, 2009 - 14:30 ET by daver1

Lets see, where to wade through all this muck.

1. Cnn withdraws video

False.

The video is still at CNN:

http://edition.cnn.com/2009/WORLD/meast/01/09/gaza.video.accusations/index.html#cnnSTCVideo

CNN) — There’s no truth to accusations by bloggers that a Palestinian camera crew staged a video showing the death of the videographer’s brother after an Israeli rocket attack, said the team’s employer.

In the video, camerman Ashraf Mashharawi is seen holding his brother.

“It’s absolute nonsense,” Paul Martin, co-owner of World News and Features, said of accusations leveled by bloggers at videographer Ashraf Mashharawi.

All you newsbusters just got Busted on that one.

2. Bloggers Utd, well-known international medical experts, think a doctor can't even fake a medical procedure? Why, I guess that would imply that he's not...not even...a real doctor? Because a real doctor would know what the procedure looks like...Honestly, don't you agree? Its funny, because he's got some pretty advanced medical credentials:

"He is a specialist in anesthesiology and a leader of the Emergency medicine department of University Hospital of North Norway, and has been a professor of Emergency medicine at the University of Tromsø since 1995.

Gilbert has broad range international experiences, in particular from locations that merge medical and political issues. Actively involved with solidarity work concerning Palestinians since the 1970s, he has served as a doctor during numerous periods in Palestine and Lebanon. His efforts have been central to the efforts that have lead the city of Tromsø, since 2001 a twin town of Gaza, to claim to be the city that has sent more health workers to Palestine than any other the world.[2]

[edit] Medical record
Following an accident in January 2000 a woman was trapped for more than an hour in icy waters, head under water, and was pronounced clinically dead, but survived after the efforts of Gilbert and his team.[3] This represented the lowest survived body temperature recorded.

Wiki."

I bet he knows how to both carry out and fake the procedure much better than anyone on this forum (except for Kimberly of course, who once had a ½ hour CPR course or whatever she had). Don't you?

Probably the truth is this guy actually had his brother killed, only to be scorned as lying about the death by bloggers. In the hospital the doctor was at, during the events occuring when he was there, obvious, easy to understand logic tells you that he was surrounded by any amount of tragedies that could be used for propaganda, without steeping to fake deaths so badly that he could hardly have even been a doctor.

Can you imagine burying your brother and then being internationally mocked for the death the next day? Reminds me of the scorn and bullying directed towards Michael J Fox for his Parkinsons, interestingly by the same political wing…

Its clear he has lefty sympathies, and its clear he sees the Pals as the main victims, but all this BS about you bloggers revealing his medical ineptitude, that he needed to fake anything when he was obviously up to his shoulders in blood, death and tragedy as any doctor in that situation would be, no matter what political affiliation he has, is just wholly implausible. As implausible as the "evidence" collected that proves Bush was behind 911.

Some newsbusters...lol

The amount of blood deposited on the gurney is minimal when he s moved in accordance with the video.

If we are to assume that the victim bled out, you would assume a significant amount deposited on the bed unless he died from bleeding into his intermuscualr area, in which case my posting for the lack of a dispalcy of cyanotism is still valid.

That CORPSE looked awefully health in that the skin was ruddy (inconsistant with a victims who required repeated even badly performed CPR Chest compressions.)

Also, the photo of the impact area on the rooftop of the supposed impact area of the hellfire missile that supposedly claimed the life of the victim showed no blood spatter, and the hellfire would have down significantly more damage to the body that a single wound IF he had been present of the rooftop as claimed by the Pali's.

Your post is very hard to

January 14, 2009 - 14:51 ET by BD

Your post is very hard to follow, but I will give astab at a reply.

1.) The video WAS down at the time the blog was posted. Perhaps CNN put it back up out of embarrassment at being caught.

Mdical credentials are meaningless when you seek to advance a hyper liberal cuase like support of Palestinina terrorists.

I bet he knows how to both carry out and fake the procedure much better than anyone on this forum (except for Kimberly of course, who once had a ½ hour CPR course or whatever she had). Don't you?

a. The CPR chest compressions werre obviously faked. This was likely due to a concern of hurting the supposed patient who was likely neither hurt significantly, nor required CPR.

b. I have participated in buddy team CPR on a fellow soldier who's heart had stopped in 1987. We nearly broke his ribs performing it in accordance with the CPR training we had received sevral months before. During this training we had received we were able to use a CPR dummy that graded our efforts (Do not push down hard enough you got a beep, push down correctly and the beeping stopped.)

c. Since then I have witnessed furhter training provided as part of combat lifesavers training and SQT lanes training.

None of our experiences looks remotely like the show displayed in this video. They appeared to be performing CPR on an infant.

Um, what?

Please prove the death occured. the pali's are famous for staging such.

In fact, a classic example is the pali who was supposedly being taken to his burying plot, only to jump up and assist his pallbeares when the crowd got a bit "excited" at his funeral.

As I have posted before, that CORPSE did not show any indicationsof suffering from cyanotism, that being the blueing of the lips etc from lack of O2. He made a very RUDDY corpse that those of us who have seen enough of know is likely bogus.

Its laughable that the bloggers think they know more about medicine than this doctor, and laughable that they'd think that where they wouldnt slip up, this doctor did. I bet even the local chiropractor would know enough to not slip up on such a ridiculously contrived mistake.

Your replies are the usual utterly impossible demands of me showing the dead body or else it didn't happen...any adult realizes no debate is possible under such garbage conditions.

Since both Hamas and Hezbollah have such poor histories in presenting th truth in comparison to the Isrealis, I say the burden of proof lies with them!

I would say "Hey, Doctor Gilbert, please produce teh body, but why would I want to see the young man in question take two in the chest to allow Hamas to provide "proof"

Why don't you show me the live body instead?

So you authorize the US army to invade Gaza in order to ascertain the truth? Interesting, we could go search the tomb. But i doubt you are up for it, really.

Its laughable that the bloggers think they know more about medicine than this doctor,

I am hardly saying that I know more than the doctor, but I am saying that I am experienced in CPR, and that was not an actual effort to conduct it.

I also know that Mads Gilbert has no credibility when certain causes come into effect while he is practicing his profession.

I bet even the local chiropractor would know enough to not slip up on such a ridiculously contrived mistake.

When it comes time to do chest compressions on a patient you do not worry about his "back issues".

So you are saying the Doctor and crew was not STAGING this event for the camera, but rather did it the way they did because they were IDIOTS? Interesting....

I thought they knew more than we did?

January 14, 2009 - 15:36 ET by daver1

So heres the conspiracy theory:

1. In the main hospital of an urban warzone thats suffered hundreds of dead and thousands of wounded in just a few days, they can't find a dead body to use. Maybe this doctor thinks dead bodies are too icky to touch?

2. A doctor of quite clearly fairly advanced and of decidedly war and trauma well-seasoned credentials can't perform a simple procedure that my masseuse could do. Not for a second does it strike the doctor or anyone else that they're faking simple medical procedure so badly that it will easily be revealed by tom, dick and harry all over the blogging world, nor does he suspect for a second that any trained medical eye will see ever this international war-time hoax.

3. Bush personally planted thermite under the WTC and hence caused a small volcano to erupt.

How old is the planet again? How well is the economy doing again? How much is the US NOT in a recession again? How much was the war going to cost again? How much has it cost so far? How many mobile chem labs did Saddam have again? How much was he working with AQ again? And how about all those most lethal WMD known to man? How many remote controlled drones did Saddam have again? How many dead babies did he keep in his freezer again? How many body doubles did he have again? And we still ain't seen no WMD. How much yellowcake did he get in Nigeria again? How many missiles that could hit the US in 45 minutes did he have? How many flowers were thrown at the feet of US troops again? Seriously, where ARE all those WMD? etc etc etc?

Seriously, if you guys haven't worked out that you belong to group of people that are always wrong by now, then I guess you're condemned to always belonging to that group.

Please post a rationale for making this statement. I have not witnessed any speech being squelched except for cases of profanity.

How old is the planet again?

Really damn old. Impossible to calculate with accuracy. Why?

How well is the economy doing again?

The economy is in a downcycle and will recover if left alone in 18 months.

If people start tinkering with it, inflation will rise and things will take longer.

How much was the war going to cost again?

Significanlty less as part of total economy than any war in previous history.

See US defense spending as part of total economy in comparison.

How many mobile chem labs did Saddam have again?

Dual use facilities? three.

How many remote controlled drones did Saddam have again?

Documentation proving his searchfor the capability has been uncovered.

How many dead babies did he keep in his freezer again?

Wow, i cannot recall anyone alleging he kept dead babies in his fridge. I was at a few of his palaces and do not recall anyone even assuming he had such.

I did see the mass graves however.

How many body doubles did he have again?

It has neither been proven, nor disproven that he had stand ins. Nor do I think that is a question that needed to be followed up. One Saddam was bad enough with out body doubles.

How much yellowcake did he get in Nigeria again?

It was alleged that he SOUGHT yellow cake by the UK MI services. This was later found to be true. No one alleged he took delivery.

Now that you mention it though, several hunder pounds have been shipped to north america from Iraq. I wonder who owned that?

How many missiles that could hit the US in 45 minutes did he have?

No one indicated a current capability existed. But he did have capabiity for and stockpiles of prohibited weapons with ranges in excess of those allowed by the armistice. We seized those.

How many flowers were thrown at the feet of US troops again?

I was greeted by civilians upon my arrival. Flowers and falafel bread if memory serves. They were quite friendly until the Islamist fascists started blowing up their houses.

Seriously, where ARE all those WMD? etc etc etc?

Sixteen seperate rationale for invading iraq were presented by the administration prior to the invasion. The ranged from his firing at US aircraft overflying the no fly zone to his abuse of his own population, with fourteen others in between. Like much of the press you seem to only have locked on the WMD rationale. I guess that lone rationale is what you are capable of.....

January 14, 2009 - 15:53 ET by BD

1. In the main hospital of an urban warzone thats suffered hundreds of dead

Apparently not so many dead that they have video of the gurneys lined up now do they. Hamas always attempts to prove that its un-uniformed combatants are actual innocent civilians. They very rarely are, and those that are civilians are usually killed because Hamas does not conduct operations in accordance with the law of land warfare.

The truth has come out that Hamas has located C2 nodes immediately beneath hospitals, schools etc.

Maybe this doctor thinks dead bodies are too icky to touch?

My specualtion would be that

1.) dead bodies cannot be defiled in accordance with islam (Though Islam seems to be fine with defiling non-adherents in ways not seen since the Sioux took out Autie Custer.

2.) They used a live teenager since he was readily availabe and could easily be carried ala corpse. (That is what i vote for.)

2. A doctor of quite clearly fairly advanced and of decidedly war and trauma well-seasoned credentials can't perform a simple procedure that my masseuse could do.

Can't? I have never said that. Chose not too is a better phrase.

Please read the following and tell me is it applies to what you watch in this video.

Correct Hand Position: First, kneel next to the victim's chest. Find the notch at the tip of the breastbone where the lower ribs meet the sternum, called the xyphoid process. Remember, if you push directly down on this puppy, you will likely rupture the vicitm's liver and perhaps a few other vital organs, and all the CPR in the world couldn't help him then. Place your middle finger on this notch, and place your index finger down next to your middle finger. That way, you are at least a good two fingers away from the xyphoid danger spot. Next, place the heel of your other hand on the victim's sternum next to your index finger. Place your other hand directly on top and interlace your fingers. Straighten your arms and lock your elbows. Your shoulders should be directly over your hands.Each chest compression should push the sternum down 1 1/2-2 inches.

Not for a second does it strike the doctor or anyone else that they're faking simple medical procedure so badly that it will easily be revealed by tom, dick and harry all over the blogging world, nor does he suspect for a second that any trained medical eye will see ever this international war-time hoax.

They are used to a compliant leftist press.

3. Bush personally planted thermite under the WTC and hence caused a small volcano to erupt.

Dr. Awni al-Jaru, 37, a surgeon at the hospital, rushed in from his home here, dressed in his scrubs. But he came not to work. His head was bleeding, and his daughter’s jaw was broken.

He said Hamas militants next to his apartment building had fired mortar and rocket rounds. Israel fired back with force, and his apartment was hit. His wife, Albina, originally from Ukraine, and his 1-year-old son were killed.

“My son has been turned into pieces,” he cried. “My wife was cut in half. I had to leave her body at home.” Because Albina was a foreigner, she could have left Gaza with her children. But, Dr. Jaru lamented, she would not leave him behind.

A car arrived with more patients. One was a 21-year-old man with shrapnel in his left leg who demanded quick treatment. He turned out to be a militant with Islamic Jihad. He was smiling a big smile.

“Hurry, I must get back so I can keep fighting,” he told the doctors.

He was told that there were more serious cases than his, that he needed to wait. But he insisted. “We are fighting the Israelis,” he said. “When we fire we run, but they hit back so fast. We run into the houses to get away.” He continued smiling.

“Why are you so happy?” this reporter asked. “Look around you.”

A girl who looked about 18 screamed as a surgeon removed shrapnel from her leg. An elderly man was soaked in blood. A baby a few weeks old and slightly wounded looked around helplessly. A man lay with parts of his brain coming out. His family wailed at his side.

“Don’t you see that these people are hurting?” the militant was asked.

“But I am from the people, too,” he said, his smile incandescent. “They lost their loved ones as martyrs. They should be happy. I want to be a martyr, too.”

March 23, 2009 - 09:22 ET by BjörnOttar

Well, the video clearly refutes the majority of the accusations that have been made towards this video. For example the key argument is that the CPR on the original tape is "unconvincing". (I agree, but I am not an expert). To the conspiracy theorists in the blog sphere, this means that the child is not dead and that they are all acting etc. They assume what fits with their world-view.

Along comes the extended version where it seems that Gilbert actually agrees that the CPR is puny, and instructs the fat guy to to it properly.

Ok. The question one should ask oneself then is "hmmm, my key evidence was wrong, maybe my theory was wrong all the way?"

Several other allegations are also countered in this tape. What the doctors say is, I guess, that it looks like a fairly authentic scene with a fairly dead child. And given all this, if I were you, I would turn the focus to the mental processes that led me down this path of allegations and speculations in the first place, rather than sticking with the theory just arguing more desperately that "I am sure it's a fake, as long as no one proves it's not, and if someone does he is an antisemite". (check comments below for the inspiration for this)

Hi Mr Veteran

March 24, 2009 - 08:59 ET by BjörnOttar

You are quite funny when you are angry. But name calling is not a very polite thing to do, even though you are some kind of veteran of something.

To be honest: I am in no position to judge from the footage whether the child was killed on the rooftop. The main allegations of fake was based on the CPR and lack of intubation of the child. This was refuted by the CNN, and I suppose no sane individual will claim that the extra footage is staged afterwards to reply to the allegations or that the doctors hired by CNN to comment on the autencity of the hospital scene are actors or whatever. So what I think we can be fairly certain of is that the hospital scene is quite genuine. Do you agree? And given that there are a few houndred documented dead children in Gaza (by Israeli numbers as well), I have a hard time to comprehend why they would need someone to act dead.

Regarding the rooftop scene, I haven't got any opinion as to whether it is genuine, but I am kind of baffeled by your devotion to the idea that it is not. But again, given that a number of children were killed and that a number of buildings were actually hit, I can't really see why they would film some random roof if they were looking for a good scene.

As for your details about the wounds: Isn't is so that small shrapnel fragments on the right place can kill a man without creating much blood? But here you are obviously the expert, so I won't go into details more than that. (not because I am a coward, but because I respect your expertise).

Just a question: Do you still think the hospital scene was faked, or are you just angry that it wasn't?

I have tried to stick to the fact that the "analysis" of the ER scene has been sucessfully countered by new information made available by CNN. This has lead to a load of inane ad hominem (look that up mr English-is-my-first-language-boy) insults, from you and others here. For Christ's sake, calling someone an otter didn't even work in first grade!

Further, the cnn video knocked over the weakest of the arguments. Not the strongest, namely, that an Israeli missile killed the boy on the roof. This is what the propaganda was all about after all - Israel deliberately killing small children. The propaganda video was not about whether doctors in the Gaza script know how to properly conduct CPR. IT WAS PROPAGANDA TO TURN WORLD OPINION AGAINST ISRAEL.

inane ad hominem (look that up mr English-is-my-first-language-boy) insults

You said it yourself, you don't want to read or learn. And you consider it all ranting. Therefore I would be wasting time trying to teach you anything.

All you want is to further spread your arab propaganda.

CNN goes to the root of the story and asks the liar if he lied. The liar says no. CNN is happy!

CNN proves beyond a doubt that there was a dead child. But the 2 doctors it enlists to help cannot say what killed the child.

CNN absolutely FAILS to prove -

What killed the child? When was the child killed? Where was the child killed?

CNN fails to refute the more serious charges -

Where was the blood? Missiles cause massive damage to human bodies. Yet there was almost no blood on the child or the hospital sheets. And there was open unbandaged wounds on the child.

Where was the damage to the roof of the building? Missiles cause massive damage to building type structures.

This child was killed at some other place, at some other time, by some other means. A palestinian propagandist then falsely links the childs death to an Israeli missile that supposedly struck a roof that shows no evidence of a missile actually striking said roof.

Bjornotter loves yummy arab propaganda and so does CNN.
