Most people are familiar with the footage of bogus victims and staged suffering that emerges periodically from Gaza and the West Bank. Israeli “atrocities” are carefully faked for the cameras and then retailed to gullible (or complicit) Western media outlets, who tend to swallow them hook, line, and sinker. The most famous Pallywood production was the Mohammed al-Dura hoax, but there have been innumerable others.
Now Pallywood seems to have packed up operations and moved to Egypt. The following behind-the-scenes video shows a pretend demonstration of Muslim Brotherhood supporters, including grievously wounded victims being aided by their devoted comrades. At the beginning the action seems to be intended for video cameras, and then all the actors freeze their positions and pose for stills as cameramen wander among the participants:
I don’t have any information about this incident other than what is obvious from the footage. Readers who can read the Arabic text or understand the snippets of background speech on the sound track are invited to leave their observations in the comments.
Hat tip: Vlad Tepes.
Complicit – there is no other way to describe such obvious blind stupidity – even for French TV Correspondents or willing CBC dupes.
I did get the following email from M. Karsenty – who attempted to expose this charade but was betrayed by the French Justice System – as he is touring North America in August.

Intersting to see the bright colours & western clothing of most of the grievously wounded. Also interesting to see the big bearded boys off to the side out of shot. Appearance is everything…
Naturally it’ll be uncritically swallowed by the sharp thinking MSM. We’re in the very best of hands aren’t we? Sheesh…
Not much conversation in the background. Nothing to comment.
I will be a Devils advocate here and suggest that it could be the other side trying to implicat Brotherhood supporters in fubricating false evidence of their suffering.
Who knows?
