Gaza Man Caught Faking Injuries to Create Anti-Israel Media Bias? Here’s the Video Evidence

ā€œPallywoodā€ is a phenomenon that Israel’s supporters often use to describe the media manipulation that Palestinians resort to in an effort to turn people against the Jewish state. IndividualsĀ fake injuries and ā€œactā€ as though they are hurt when they really are not — all in an attempt create a perception of Israeli aggression and mistreatment.

Take, for instance, video footage of a man who was allegedly injured and being carried by fellow Palestinians during Israeli airstrikes over the last two days. While the BBC showed video of him in apparent despair, he appears just moments later walking on his own and looking healthier-than-ever.

IsraelNationalNews.com provides more information on the latest alleged example of ā€œPallywoodā€:

Footage from theĀ BBCĀ captured by watchdog group Honest Reporting shows a heavy man lying on the ground and being carried away by residents, apparently after being injured by an Israeli attack.

Moments later, that same man again fills theĀ frame, except he is walking about and obviously unhurt.

The widespread staging of such victim situations is a favored tactic of Arabs fighting Israel and has come to be known as ā€œPallywood.ā€ Because Israel is stronger militarily, the Arabs cling to the underdogĀ imageĀ of poorĀ refugeesĀ under occupation and siege by evil Israelis, thus eliciting sympathy.

On a description under the video, Honest Reporting wrote, ā€œWhat happens when the cameras turn up at the scene of an airstrike in Gaza and there simply aren’t enough Palestinian dead and injured to produce dramatic footage that can be used against Israel in the international media?ā€

Watch the video, below:

Obviously, this isn’t the first time that reports of Palestinians faking injuries have run rampant. Another incident in 2002 purportedly shows a man faking his own funeral. IsraelInsider.com has more about the clip:

In a press briefing Thursday, IDF Intelligence Officer Colonel Miri Eisen screenedĀ video imageryĀ of a staged Palestinian funeral photographed by an Israeli drone flying over Jenin on Monday, April 28. Pallbearers repeatedly tried to carry a green blanket wrapped around a man who pretended to be dead, but kept falling out of the blanket. The funeral took place between the area that was destroyed in the Jenin refugee camp and the nearby cemetery.

The Palestinians, Col. Eisen said, sought ā€œto show as many casualties as possible were buried inside Jenin. They tried to falsify evidence in preparation for the committee by executing a fake [funeral] ceremony, carrying the ā€˜body’ and filming the entire process.ā€

The film was screened to foreign reporters and later shown on Israeli television, causing considerable amusement among the TV commentators and journalists, since the ā€œcorpseā€ kept tumbling out of the blanket. ā€œOne time he falls off the stretcher when he is already in a crowd,ā€ Col. Eisen narrated. ā€œWhen he came back to life in the middle of the crowd (at approximately 1:35 in the clip), the crowd breaks up because they didn’t know that it wasn’t really a corpse.ā€ Israel Radio reported that many reporters laughed at the point in the tape that the ā€œcorpseā€ seemed to ā€œrise from the dead,ā€ causing the people around him to flee in terror.

Watch that footage, apparently captured by an Israeli drone, below:

      I think we should create & donate a few thousand bacon bombs for Israel to drop on Gaza. It would be like a cluster bomb, but instead of dropping bomblets, it would fling out strips of raw bacon, all rollwed up into little balls.

      Also, since Obama feels that the crucifix of Christ suspended in urine is not insulting (The video insulted Muhammed per Obama, but he said nothing about the “art” exhibit of Jesus dipped in urin), I think we should buy a bunch of Qurans, soak them in pig piss, and drop them in Gaza as well. After all, if urine is good for Jesus, it should be good enough for Muhammad.

      Reminds me of the poor oppressed black people in america. Ok not all but most who seem to think so. I was driving up my neighborhood to the store yesterday when 3 black children walking started screaming at me. Two were about 10 years old, the youngest about 6 was yelling, im gonna kill you whitey, the older ones were just laughing egging him on. I was stunned. Really, what is wrong with you parents of black children, you create the hate and oppression for what mo money? Just like the Palestinians teaching hate and violence. Its all going to be right when Jesus comes. The sooner the better.

      It’s obvious that only Jews deserve the sympathy and support of the US tax payer.. Since they are chosen by God to rule the world we should give them all the American blood and treasure they need and we should just continue to subjugate and slaughter all those Palestinian women and children so as to make Jesus very proud of us..

      The libby’s like to paint “right-wingers” as Nazis…But what is a “Nazis”…National Socialist of course.

      Key word Socialist. The Socialists (liberals) here and in Europe blame Israel for the faults of the Middle East…Yet clearly the Arab states against them (and us) do more to suppress the so-called “human rights” that liberals claim to stand against!

      Confused yet? That’s the mind of the insane liberal.

Are they caught up in the propaganda? Why is the Blaze TV and Breitbart the only ones who caught this? I already sent CNN an email with a link to this phony video last night and they are STILL airing the fake injury video; I suggest everyone else on here do the same. The link is below to CNN.

      @UPEOPLE I can’t out hate you. That is the one category you are far superior at. Someday hopefully you’ll surround yourself with people who bring light into the world & not darkness & then the blinders will come off and you’ll finally be able to see good & evil for what they are. You see, if leaders in Palestine, Iran and elsewhere laid their arms down tomorrow they would live their lives with zero threat from Israel. If Israel laid down their arms tomorrow there would be a jewish genocide. In Israel I have witnessed 1st hand the love & respect the Jewish people have for peaceful Arab people. On the flip side, I’ve watch the school videos in Arab nations teaching their children to hate jews & pledge a life of hatred and murder against them. Let me leave you with this: Psychological projection is a psychological defense mechanism where a person (you) subconsciously denies his own attributes, thoughts, and emotions, which are then ascribed to the outside world, usually to other people. Projection involves imagining or projecting the belief that others originate those feelings.It reduces anxiety by allowing the expression of the unwanted unconscious impulses or desires without letting the conscious mind recognize them. An example of this behavior might be blaming another for self failure. Redirecting libidinal satisfaction by attaching, or “projecting,” those same faults onto onto another person. http://youtu.be/zEY6xPmQq1Y (do you have a ponytail too?)

You praise Jerk, but I’ve been telling Blazers about the “chosen people” for a couple of years now spreading their leftist, Marxist propaganda since the early 20th century when they started buying the media, Hollywood, and other entertainment outlets. Why don’t you give me some credit? I’m well aware of their plot to control the masses. Glenn Beck speaks of “antisemitism” like it’s a bad thing. I like to call it “being awake” instead of “antisemitism.”

      On Glenn’s show last night he also showed how the left-wing sites and middle east media were showing pictures of Hamas carrying “children” that were apparently being injured by “zionists.” Only problem was the pictures were from SYRIA! Yep, they just screen grabbed pictures from Syria and posted them on sites and tv saying it was caused by Israel. Unbelievable! We live in an age when millions can now be manipulated by phony pictures and videos.

      BTW – don’t think the propaganda is simply happening in the middle east. See the video below of Christians being stoned by Muslims in MICHIGAN! Yet NOT ONE major media network decided to carry this except for the Blaze TV. (note: there’s a lot of bad language in the video -warning)

    What else is new, warfare is now carried out:

    Media fronts – propaganda and sympathy on the regional and international level. Seek to gain the moral high ground.

    Political fronts – divide the enemy as much as possible using pressure from within and without by other sympathetic nations and NGO’s such as the Useless Nations.

    Domestic fronts – stage ‘atrocities’ to galvanize your people and make the enemy appear as less than human and only worthy of extermination. Use it to drive the message home, this is victory or death in the war, no quarter and no surrender.

    Economic front – against Israel force her to mobilize as many troops as possible, causing an extensive economic disruption; seek to have her embargoed and sanctioned by friendly nations and the UN. Claim any efforts by Israel against her enemies is ‘genocidal.’

    This war in Gaza may easily come out as the one against Hamas did in Southern Lebanon a few years back: neither side won in the end.

Not saying I wish/desire to see blood and bandages etc for proof.

      Yup, but the BBC needs new footage. They’ve used old stock footage so often that the brain dead Brits are starting to catch on. They need the heartfelt peace loving super fluffy teddy bear Palestinians to fake some more stuff that they can use for the next few months.

      There’s a few people on here that should be called “Gaza Man.”

      With Obamacare, the dead can’t even afford to stay dead.

      GONZO, LOL. You must mean like that funeral procession that was filmed from a helicopter. Where the guy fell out of his casket, then got up and climbed back in. That was a hoot.

      Actually, there’s another instance where a Palestinian man played dead inside a casket. But his ‘undertakers’ accidentally spilled his coffin, but he got right back in before more noticed.

      He was trying to be a supposed victim of Israel. These frauds seem so common now…

    Once again……

    All the world’s a stage.

    It’s no wonder actors love the progressive movement.
