The injured boy in Aleppo that's gone viral

Postby FAH1223 » Fri Aug 19, 2016 10:18 am

Guys, is it a staged photo?

I've looked at the video and compared it to others and it seems like it isn't real. Boy on left is in Western Aleppo, government territory. Boy on the right making international news is in East Aleppo, rebel/AlNusra/Ahrar Al Sham territory

Not fake but it is being used as propaganda

The problem with the disciples of Russia Today is they can't see the suffering of the civilian population in Aleppo, imposed by the Russia, the powers that be, and their beloved Rafida. These disciples lost their common sense. The only thing they trust is what they hear from Russia Today.

They're questioning because they're taking a joy at the suffering of Aleppo's Sunni Muslim population.

What about all the Somali boys who have been and still are injured?

I dont get this Somali Syria obsession. Your concern and goodwill is sorely needed by your own people.

Were those Somali boys being used for propaganda purposes in the 1990s so that the USA could invade and do a nation building project

is this the child in q?

Something about the whole thing looks staged. Took him out of the building (actually a man pass the boy over a wall..mmmm) place him inside an ambulance and not on a stretcher, but on a sit facing directly the door to be filmed and photographed. I mean seriously? You save a child, throw him in the back of an ambulance and walk away? Not even a quick Check up?

The fact that those rebels have staged so many fake incidents, it only natural for people to be sceptical.

God knows the truth, but it seem highly fishy to say the least.

But note: the cleanliness of the ambulance, the perfect state of the road where some heavy bombing supposedly took place (can anyone spot a piece of rubble? a stone a pebble? a a pothole?) the shiny sandals of the rescue worker supposedly working over debris, and the older man that is walking with a white face (and a “blood stain” that only dripped until the chin…), supposedly covered in dust, but with clean neck and chest. wouldn't head wounds would have you dripping on blood all the way to your shoes, blood would not stop making straight lines on your cheeks?

I wonder what a paramedic thinks when he/she sees something like this

Also, Apparently the photographer of that “iconic picture that couldn´t hold his tears when seeing that injured child”, likes to hang out with the same group that beheaded a Palestinian child weeks earlier, note the shirt:
