Oh, come on 'Democracy Now'?
You will notice that even in this deceptive article, there were NO 'West Bank bombardments' as you claimed. You also left out the 7 Gaza children killed by the Islamic Jihad missile landing on their own people.

At this point I'm having trouble telling the difference between what you're doing here and what Alex Jones does. Well, I guess you have a smaller audience.

If you think those two pictures, by the same photographer, aren't almost exactly alike, then you have greater problems than imagining Alex Jones

You’re welcome to question my ability to read a photo but I got a four year degree in this.
All you have is empty claims.
It’s super shitty to post pics of people suffering and call them fake.

They must have dropped 'spotting propaganda' from the curriculum.
To give you a more prominent example, the photos glorifying and making the case for minor Ukrainian victories are an obvious attempt to rally public opinion to their side.
I am 100% behind the Ukraine and 100% against the Russians, but the stories and photos are definitely written to make for sympathy and good feelings towards the Ukrainian side. That's feel good war propaganda.
But for you never to question why Reuters will run multiple pictures of sobbing women and children and only represent the Israeli side by showing Iron Dome rockets being launched and Israeli soldiers (bad Jews). And those sobbing women pix don't tell you that the person killed on the West Bank was shooting at Israelis at the time.
There are lots of things I don't agree with Israelis on, but that has nothing to do with calling out obvious staged propaganda photos.
(Notice how Hamas is not allowing any pictures of women and kids mourning Islamic Jihad members killed last week?). You might also ask yourself why Hamas didn't lift a finger to aid their 'Anti-Zionist' comrades. (ps-it's because they control the 'news' and photos coming out of Gaza...which you lap up.)

Posting two pics does not make a statement about the larger work of a particular news outlet.
Your initial statement was not about the context of the images. It was about the images themselves and you’ve still failed to support your claim.

That's why I used the word 'staged'. That falsity takes it out of whatever context you may desire.
