Hezbollah Caught Staging Dolls

Remember all those photos of new children's toys and dolls set amongst the ruins in Lebanon? Pretty much every one called shenanigans. Here is some pretty conclusive proof that the dolls were staged. Pics of a man taking doll out of a suitcase, and then the same man carrying them around the rubble.

I don't know if we've run these pics before or not---frankly, at some point there were so many staged photos coming out of Lebanon that I just lost track--but if it's an oldie, it certainly is a goodie.

Thanks to Fred Fry for keeping on top of this.

UPDATE: Allah says this can be viewed either way. Guy planting toys or guy salvaging toys. True enough. But, as he notes, pretty clean toys if they are being salvaged. So, not a slam dunk case, but a case nonetheless.
