Israel Firing Korans at Civilians
It's the only explanation for so many photos of Korans in Lebanon. That, or a call to holy war by propagandists and their tools and allies in the media.
Yesterday, Bizzy Blog sent me this photo he screencapped off the Fox News website saying it looked staged. I disagree. I mean, what's more natural than a guy picking though rubble and wearing gloves to pause for a quick sura read?
When not dropping Korans on Lebanon, Israel, it seems, is busy desecrating Korans.
A copy of the Koran burns in Southern Beirut after the Hizbollah stronghold was targeted by Israeli airstrikes July 16, 2006. Israeli air raids shook Beirut on Sunday, the fifth day of a devastating assault on Hizbollah and Lebanon that has prompted no UN Security Council action and only a mild plea for restraint from Israel's U.S. ally.

Isolated incidents? The images of the Quran as victim of Israeli desecration juxtaposed with the Quran as the source of inspiration for Lebanese resistance?
Mary Katherine Ham finds more evidence of Koran staging:

But wait, there's more. A simple Yahoo News photo search reveals dozens of Koran photos. Everyone in Lebanon, it seems, is reading the Koran these days.
The Koran, it's the new black.
Much more below.

And what could possibly be staged abou this? Sad child, victim of Israeli fascism. Mother comforting family with the Koran.

Israeli warplanes battered Lebanon on Tuesday, killing 31 people, and more Hizbollah rockets hit northern Israel, killing one, with no sign that diplomacy would halt the week-old conflict any time soon.

Wait, the same family. Two Korans. I wonder where their husbands are? That's a toughie.

Best photo? Mother. Child. Koran. Victory.
