Green Helmut Guy, You're In the Army Now

2006-08-18T14:06:00.000-07:00

This picture were sent to Abu by a Pallywood-supporter in Germany. He swears that it appeared in the "Koln Expres" today and that the picture is not photoshoped or manipulated, just a pure scan. What is interesting: The article, Abu is told, deals with the Lebanese taking over Lebanon [sic!]. We see the lebanese army entering while the Zionists are pulling out. And who is on the army transporter? Green Helmet Guy!

Or is it just someone very similar? You be the judge. Has someone maybe seen this photo online on one of the newssites?

The Hamas ain't all bad

2006-08-13T00:57:00.000-07:00

The Hamas isn't a terrorist organisation (in the moment) - it even stopped shooting rockets at the Zionist Empire. So says the Zionist own paper, Haaretz.

The Article:

Sources: Hamas holding back Qassam fire from Gaza Strip
By Avi Issacharoff

Palestinian sources report that Hamas has stopped firing Qassam rockets from the Gaza Strip at Israel, in response to a request nearly two weeks ago by Palestinian Authority Prime Minister Ismail Haniyeh.

According to the sources, only Islamic Jihad and Al-Aqsa Martyrs' Brigade forces, the latter acting on Hamas directives, are continuing to fire Qassams.

The sources say that Hamas briefly renewed rocket fire during the recent Israel Defense Forces operation in Rafah, but suspended it once the IDF withdrew. Last week 11 Qassams were fired at Israel, a steep decrease from previous weeks. The week before, 33 rockets were fired, three weeks ago saw 42 Qassams and 65 rockets hit Israel four weeks ago. Over the weekend, three Qassams were fired from Gaza but fell within Palestinian territory.

Haniyeh demands
Palestinian military sources attribute the drop to several causes. The IDF's aggressive operations within Gaza led Haniyeh to demand an end to the rocket fire. The IDF's bombing of private homes in Gaza, after calling residents to warn them, also contributed to the decision. Another factor in the suspension of Qassam fire was the realization by Hamas leaders that international attention was focused on Lebanon, not Gaza. There was also some public pressure, such as threats made to the families of launcher operators in the northern Gaza Strip neighborhood of Al-Nada, to stop rocket firing from in between houses.

The Palestinian sources told Haaretz that most of the Hamas military leaders were badly injured in last month's assassination attempt in Gaza's Sheikh Radwan neighborhood. Mohammed Deif is in serious condition, a quadruple amputee, as a result of the incident.

Ahmed Al-Ghandour, the commander of Hamas' armed wing, Iz al-Din al-Qassam in northern Gaza, is in serious condition after a splenectomy. Marwan Issa, who suffered pelvic injuries, is also listed in serious condition.

Another senior leader, Raed Sayid, sustained relatively minor injuries.

Despite the judgment by Palestinian military officials that the abduction of IDF Corporal Gilad Shalit by Hamas has become a hindrance to the organization, there is still no progress pointing to his release. The head of the Hamas military wing, Ahmed al-Jabari, and his colleagues are rejecting Egypt's compromise formula, under which Shalit would be handed over to Egypt until Israel releases Palestinian prisoners it is holding.

On Thursday, significant progress was made in talks among Palestinian groupings. Hamas and Fatah agreed to suspend hostilities in the Khan Yunis area, the site of most of the armed confrontations between Hamas and the Preventative Security Forces.

London's Terror-Allegations are Muslim-Hater Propaganda!

2006-08-11T02:49:00.000-07:00

Even the Infidel-Media must confess that there is something fishy about the timing of the of the uncovering of the London Terror Plot.

Abu quotes one of his favourite Infidel Newspapers - the Guardian:

Fahad Ansari, of the Islamic Human Rights Commission, was more sceptical. "I think you will get cynicism from the community," he said. "Over the last few years we have seen many high-profile raids like this plastered over the press to terrify the public. We have seen it time and time again. It has been hit and miss on too many occasions. It is causing a lot of mass hysteria."

He suggested that the raids could even have been timed to distract attention from criticisms of the government's stance on the Lebanon crisis.

"There has been so much pressure on the government, it could be a way of diverting attention away from its policy on the Middle East."

Abu send kind greetings to the European Left! Abu likes you!

Abu's Favourite Philosopher

2006-08-09T23:33:00.000-07:00

Abu has a new favourite philosopher: Jostein Gaarder.

Quote:

Israel is history. We no longer recognize the State of Israel. There is no way back. The State of Israel has raped the world's recognition and will get no peace until it lays down its weapons. The State of Israel in its current form is history, writes Jostein Gaarder.

No way back. It is time to learn a new refrain: We no longer recognize the State of Israel. We couldn't recognize the apartheid regime in South Africa, we didn't recognize the Taliban regime in Afghanistan. And there were many who didn't recognize Saddam Hussein's Iraq, or the Serb ethnic cleansing. So now we must get used to the thought: the State of Israel, in its current form, is history.

This feels so good! Abu is getting a itchy feeling - aaah. Go read here the rest of this wonderful document.

(What Abu wonders is this: I understand that the Left likes Abu and his Fighting Friends. But why are they licking Abu's balls? Are they gay? - Stupid infidels.)

In War even the Holy Book gets abused

2006-08-08T23:25:00.000-07:00

Abu likes propaganda when it shows the evil of the Amerizionists. Abu despises propaganda when it abuses the Holy Book.

Yesterday AP published this picture by Lefteris Pitarakis with the caption: "A Lebanese man pauses after he retrieved a Quran, Islam's holy book, under the debris of a destroyed building, attacked late Monday by Israeli forces, in the southern Beirut suburb of Chiah, Lebanon, Tuesday Aug. 8, 2006. The raid on the Muslim southern suburb next to a Christian neighborhood killed at least 16 people, police officials said, as Lebanese civil defense rescuers were still working on recovering the bodies of citizens believed to be trapped under debris and concrete late Tuesday."

Not surprisingly it wasn't hard to find a paper who would pick up this picture on its front page: Look to the left!

Abu thought: This is dangerous. Abu likes propaganda, as he said before. But Abu doesn't like when the Infidels´ Left Media try to stir things up among the muslim population. Implying that the Zionists are "bombing the Quran" (which maybe is even technically correct when there was a Holy Book in a bombed house) seems to Abu as a provocation of their muslim readers. In times of emotional stress (like this war, like any war) even the positioning of words can play a role. The second sentence begins with "The raid on the Muslim..." - no matter what the following words say, the beginning of this sentence is yet another stab into the Muslim heart. (At least the Guardian has the dignity to soften the sentence to: "Lebanese man retrieves a Qur'an from under the debris of a destroyed building.")

Abu feels reminded of the one picture where even Abu's great and admired friend Adnan Hajj went a couple of steps too far. On the left (pun intended) you see a picture by the now out-of-job Brother Adnan. (While Reuters has pulled this pic in the meantime, Abu got it via The Jawa Report.)

In Abu's opinion it is pretty clear that this picture was staged - no matter how soon Brother Adnan arrived at the scene, a paper book wouldn't be burning with one foot high flames any more. But the staging part is no problem to Abu.

Abu shivers at the thought that the most logical explanation to why the Holy Book was burning in the picture is: Brother Hajj set it on fire himself.

As horrible as this is, there is yet another problem: Here we have the Left Infidel Media (who otherwise are friends of Abu) desecrating the Holy Book by using it with the obvious intention to hurt the Muslims and maybe even provoke violent intentions. It reminds Abu of Newsweek reporting on Quran Desecration last year.

Abu believes that even in war propaganda there should be moral boundaries. There is propaganda that should or could lead to an end of the fighting by focussing on the suffering and moving the world's conscience. And there is propaganda that is intended to incite anger among those who already feel hurt and unheard.

Showing suffering children awakens emotions in every human being who deserves to be called by that title. But showing a burning Quran hurts almost exclusively the believers of Islam (if it hurts infidels, than only on a philantropic-humanitarian level, Abu supposes).

Abu would like to point out that the picture was taken - if one can conclude so from the name - by an infidel and is published by infidels in London, a city where every publisher must well know, that this kind of "reporting" is quite likely to provoke bitter muslim reactions. Abu hopes that the muslims of London are smarter than that. Don't fall into this trap of provocation! Shame on the Infidel Media!

The Pallywood-Picture Of The Day: Boy taking his bombshell for a walk

2006-08-08T10:25:00.000-07:00

This is Abu's favourite Pallywood-Stage-Photo for today. It was shot by Ibraheem Abu Mustafa in Palestine.

The caption reads:

"A Palestinian boy holds an Israeli artillery shell as he walks next to the remains of a house after it was demolished by Israeli troops before they pulled out from Rafah camp in the southern Gaza strip August 8, 2006."

Abu is very glad that the Infidel Media finally reports on this tradional Arab habit. Especially in Palestine young men mean it literally when they say "I'll take my bombshell for a walk!" - it is very common and photographers get a chance to take a snapshot easily - especially if they work for Reuters. (See the pic at Yahoo.)

UN, Annan and Other Friends Of Pallywood

2006-08-07T23:15:00.000-07:00

My friends, there is no magic in Pallywood, although it may look like that at first sight. Have you ever wondered why Kofi Annan is joining Hamas, Hizbullah and Pallywood on bashing them Zionists?

There is a short answer to this: The UN is not big friends with the Zionists. What we claim that the Zionists have done, Brother Annan swallows it - and "strongly condemns" the Isrrrraelis. (Abu is not sure, what "strongly condemns" really means. Must be an infidel thing.)

The picture on the left comes from here. It is an article in the Canada National Post where an infidel writes on the brilliant work our anti-semantic warriors of words have been doing at the "United Nations".

There are even reports on very close cooperation between the Hizbullah and the Peace Forces. Both parties of freedom warriors have been sharing water and electricity resources. Basically what is happening that the infidels´ taxes are paying for infrastructure that our Holy Warriors may freely use... to kill infidels! Abu likes this very much and says: Hahaha - stupid infidels!

(Thanks to Michelle for pointing Abu at this.)

Pallywood likes Germany very much.

2006-08-07T12:01:00.000-07:00

Abu likes Germany very much, a lot of Arabs do, as you can see on this picture of a parade for the now deceased Great Leader Arafat. Something in the heart of Germany rings a tone with our Arab Heart.

This picture and the following one are screenshots of two very important German news websites. This first picture is from Spiegel Online. They are "left", which in Germany usually meens, they tend to critisize the Jews very much. When there is something to say about the Jews, you can usually expect that the Jews will look pretty bad in it. The Spiegel has its what the Germans call "Alibi-Jude" Henryk M. Broder who from time to time publishes some zionist stuff that Abu doesn't like at all, but apart from that, the Spiegel is Pallywood's willing helper. Abu likes Spiegel! In the article which is online at the top of the website in this very moment you read how the dirty Zionists make poor Siniora cry! Thank you Spiegel, for pointing this out! (Abu has always suggested crying as a way of manipulating the Infidel Media - if it is done right. See here!) There is a video of the event here - Abu would have advised the Arab leaders maybe not to applause after the Siniora-performance. That makes it look to much like a - well - performance.

At the same time the slightly more conservative Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung posted a headline on the same event. It reported that Siniora had admitted, that during an attack on Hula by the Zionists not 40 people but only one human died. This correction of course is nothing a left newspaper would tell you about in a big headline. (A friend in Germany tells Abu that it is a strange time when the Bild-Zeitung is the most sane newspaper.) - But Abu is not too scared of losing control over German Media. The same FAZ at the same time is reporting, that it is okay in Germany one more time to debate whether Israel has the right to exist. A friend in Germany told Abu, that if Olmert visited Germany there would be hundred times more protests against him than if ~~Ahme~~ ~~Ahmadini~~ ~~Ahmadija~~ the President of Iran came.

Abu, the faithful Pallywood Insider is very happy!

The Pallywood Dog-And-Pony-Show

2006-08-06T22:08:00.000-07:00

Israel-Hezbollah: "Pallywood"The Anderson Cooper Blog at C-Infidel-NN ist posting detailed instructions on how to make guided tours for the Infidel Media.

Quote:

"We again ask the Hezbollah guy (he won't give us his name) when we can talk to some residents, but he brushes us off and tells us maybe at our next stop. He's now on his cell phone and it's not hard to imagine he's making sure all the props are in place before we move on. I wish I spoke Arabic."

But you don't! And you didn't bring the story we wanted you to bring. Well, you won't get a second chance. Pallywood doesn't need you. Pallywood has Allah´s Press (AP) and Reuters on our side, so go eat camel-poopoo!

Abu would like to thank Donald for pointing at Anderson Cooper on his blog Israel-Hezbollah

Abu the Pallywood-Insider proves: Infidels can't think

2006-08-06T13:28:00.000-07:00

This is a quote from this Yahoo News entitled "News agencies stand by Lebanon photos":

Do you really think these people would risk their lives under Israeli shelling to set up a digging ceremony for dead Lebanese kids?" asked Patrick Baz, Mideast photo director for AFP. "I'm totally stunned by first the question, and I can't imagine that somebody would think something like that would have happened."

Now let Faithful Abu show you how this doesn't makes sense!

So, Abu says this:

Baz says that the situation was dangerous.
How do we know that the situation was dangerous?
Because the photographers prove it.
How do we know that the photographers are trustworthy?
Because they took the picture in a dangerous situation.

Now that is circular reasoning my friends. But the Infidel Media buys that! Hahaha - stupid infidels! (Abu is too lazy to go into the other thinking-errors in the article, but Abu is bored by infidel stupidity. Do it yourself, trust Abu, there is at least one more!)

And yes, Abu must link to Michelle Malkin, where you can find screenshots of the Reuters message withdrawing the smoke-pic by Adnan Hajj that Abu told you about sooner.

Revisiting: If you have infiltrated the Infidel News - stay undercover!

2006-08-06T13:01:00.000-07:00

(Actually this news is from May `06, but you might want to revisit it considering current events.) Your faithful Pallywood reporter is a little angry. Our brother Bunglawala who works at Reuters (and also writes for the british Guardian) had written an email to the blog owner of Little Green Football, calling him a Zionist Pig. Unfortunately his email was traceable to his Reuters office account. He got fired. But luckily there are plenty of infidel news agencies more! Read about it here.

Pallywood Today: Pimp My War Pic! (with Adnan Hajj) - Update!

2006-08-06T10:30:00.000-07:00

Update: The Zionisst "paper" Jpost reports that Reuters admitted that this picture was doctored. And they even say our brother was fired - shame on the infidels! Your faithful Pallywood-reporter Abu will post the official news release as soon as (and in case that) he finds it on the infidelnet! (this update via the infidel blog Yen/Yang)

This is a fine piece of Photoshop Art by Brother Adnan Hajj. He is a very talented infiltrator of the dirty infidel's media. Just do a search for his name and "Qana" on Google - he is our photo-warrior who did most of the photos of the Qana-Massacre (hahaha - they bought it! The pig-meat must be stuck in their brains!). He did a quite good job - okay, some bloggers wouldn't be fooled. Anybody with a half brain and some honesty could see that we were doing a little bit of Pallywood. Whatever, good enough for Annan, Human Rights Watch and the Arab street.

But I am getting sidetracked. Today's lesson comes again from Brother Hajj. This time he has taken a picture of Beirut's suburbs. (How did he take it, anyway - was he flying? Brother Hajj is magic.) The picture had a little smoke in it. But Brother Nasrallah promised to bomb Tel Aviv if the Zionistigers bomb Beirut. (They actually are doing it all the time, but whatever.) So Brother Hajj had to, as the infidels say, "pimp the pic" a little bit. He started his Photoshop (he surely has a special version where the jewish names are taken out of the credits) and put the stamp tool into action. Now it looks like way more smoke. Way to go, Brother Hajj!

Pallywood Lesson #728: Crying is good, but make it look natural.

2006-08-06T10:24:00.000-07:00

I am very sorry to post yet another example on how not to do our glorious work for the good of the muslim fighters. Of course it is appropriate to cry when a camera is pointed at you. The Infidel Media loves that! Yet, dear friends of the Holy War, please make it look natural. Do not do it like the goodwilling brother in the mosque did it on this video:

Pallywood still has to catch up with the master of very lucky war photography, Robert Capa

2006-08-06T10:11:00.000-07:00

Dear faithful friends, there is still some things we have to learn on "very lucky" war photography. Therefore I am posting two links. One is on how to do it right (yes, we have to learn from the infidels, sometimes), and the other link is on how absolutely not to do it. This is for educational purposes only, I kindly ask any infidel dog to refrain from watching the film, as it is a little bit embarrassing.

First, the link on how not to do. It is a video, taken by an unmanned Zionistdevil drone. We see a staged funeral procession, where the "dead" falls to the ground a couple of times, stands up and climbs back up. See it here.

And then, some instructions on faking death in a professional way (or: how to see if someone is really dead) - hint: It's all about the details.

Remember: It's always toys in Pallywood

2006-08-06T02:07:00.000-07:00

The caption to this picture on CNN reads: "A Lebanese man retrieves some toys from the rubble of bombed building in the suburbs of Beirut, Lebanon. Israeli warplanes repeatedly bombed the area overnight."

This is an important rule of filmmaking: Nobody is ever looting in Lebanon. It is always fathers looking for toys for their kids from the houses repeatedly bombed by the ISRRRRRRRAELIS. (What kind of toy is this pink box anyway?)

A good Pallywood-photographer is very often very lucky!

2006-08-06T02:01:00.001-07:00

The photographers are very lucky in Lebanon these days! What are the chances... this woman just happened to raise her hands in despair (or was she fixing her headscarf?) as the photographer came by - exactly in front of her! If he had been standing a few meters to the right, or the left (if that is even possible) he would have only shot some bored bystanders. Now is that lucky or what?

The 10 Pallywood Rules of Successful Filmmaking by Adnan Hajj

2006-08-06T00:05:00.000-07:00

Our Middle East correspondent A.H. (which stand for Adnan Hajj, not what you thought) has put together the 10 essential rules of Arab Filmmaking.

Pallywood Rule #1: Give them reasons to hate the Jews.
The infidels hate the Jews just as we do. But it is not politically correct to do so in their country. So they need reasons to hate the Jews, no matter how thin this reasons are. Some time ago they believed that the Jews were using child-blood for baking the Passover-bread (and a lot of Arabs still do believe that). Today they believe that the Jews would deliberately bomb a house full of children, just for fun.

Pallywood Rule #2: Never mind if you get caught.
If it is later discovered that your photos were staged - never mind! The Infidel Media will just go on as if nothing happened. They would never say "Yesterday's headliner was all wrong - Israel are the good guys after all". (Remember Rule #1!) If you once make it into the evening news, that's it - no matter what is discovered later.

Pallywood Rule #3: Dead (or at least suffering) children prove everything.
No matter how what your cause is, the infidel's rationality switches off when there are children involved. If you even touch a child, you are the bad guy. So make the Jews touch and hurt our children. The infidels don't give a damn why the Jews are doing that. Even if the children had been throwing rocks before, it makes no difference to the infidels! (See Rule #1) Click here for proof.

Pallywood Rule #4: Trust the infidels´ motherly instincts.
You are free to say whatever you want. You can scream as loud as you want that it is your plan to kill them all. You can show that it says so in your Holy Book and that we have started doing this job on a daily basis. The infidels' media will still treat us like a beloved child that is going through a difficult phase. Yes, we have begun taking them out one by one - and the infidels think that it is because of our poverty and discrimination. We kill them and they have a bad conscience! (hahaha - stupid infidels!)

Pallywood Rule #5: Look stupid and aggressive.
You may look like an oriental version of the Ku Klux Klan licking too many toads, that's okay. The infidels will label it as diversity. It is quite advisable to hold a machine gun into the air and give it to your baby too! - the infidel will believe it to be sign of our suffering and desparation.

Pallywood Rule #6: Be one of them.
Our Brother Adnan Hajj is working for Reuters and in this position manipulates the Infidel Media (and they still believe it is the Jews controlling the media - hahaha, stupid infidels!) and even the UN. The glorious Ambassador of the Holy Taliban, Sayed Rahmatullah Hashemi got admitted to Yale University. Learn from these Holy Warriors! Be there, get accustomed with their ways and one day you can hijack their planes. They don't mind and in their view it would be politically incorrect to lock you out.

Pallywood Rule #7: It's only local.
Whatever bad happens within the Arab world, the infidels are eager to believe that is is only local and has nothing to do with arab culture at large. It is against the infidels´ world view to realize facts that something could be wrong with a culture per se. Believe it or not - you can even go to jail in the infidels´ countries for stating such a possibility (at least when it comes to cultures in the now, it is okay to say that about cultures that have vanished).

Pallywood Rule #8: It has nothing to do with Islam.
Whatever bad happens in the name of Islam, you can always claim it not to be the "real" Islam. Look: The Holy Quran both orders protection of the Jew and slaughtering of the Jew. Quote what is appropriate to win the discussion - the infidels are very, very eager to believe that Islam is a religion of Peace and the Prophet was not a warlord.

Pallywood Rule #9: Blood, lotsa blood.
A lot of infidels "can´t see blood". If you talk into the camera with a face full of blood your words will always ring true in their ears - no matter if you deserved that beating or it is only because your 5-o´clock-prayer was a tad too ferocious.

Pallywood Rule #10: Move On!
The Infidel Media has a attention span shorter than a ADD-child at Nascar. Give the Infidel Media new pictures every day. It is a big mistake to just try to get a job done right. If you give the Infidel Media the same stuff every day they will start to analyze you, and you don't want that! The hate to think! They even hate their own armies! (hahaha - stupid infidels!) Be smarter: Blow someone up here, put your own kids in the line of fire there, in short: do something different every day - and the Infidel Media will love you!

Casual Friday at Hezbollah

2006-08-05T13:19:00.000-07:00

It is never good to give the world an impression, like you were a little bit too tense. So, while the infidel's troopers dress in camouflage, it can be convenient for yourself to wear civil clothing. (And you better fit in with the civilians surrounding you while you attack the Zionist Satan.) And there are even more advantages to this: In the pretty likely event of getting shot yourself, already while you are enjoying the first of your 72 virgins, your corpse still looks pretty civilian and can be used to show the world, how the evil Zionistas are killing innocent civilians.

Show Victory Signs, No Matter What!

2006-08-05T12:34:00.000-07:00

As it is a war of pictures we are fighting, don't forget to declare victory and show the appropriate finger sign no matter what. In this case a couple of Arab farmers were bombed by the Hizbullah. (source) So what! Show the infidels's that we don't care!

9 things gone bad in Qana

2006-08-05T08:04:00.000-07:00

Nicolas from Canada sums up the mistakes our friends from the Hizbollah Movie Crew made in Qana. In order to educate the filmmakers of Pallywood the list is posted here so you can learn for the next film.

(The following text comes from here.)

1. There was a missile launcher on the building.

2. Disabled children and a few caretakers, were placed into the building.

3. Only 28 bodies were found, and not the over fifty as suggested by the terrorists to the media.

4. Israel sent missiles to the missile launchers between 12 and 1pm.

5. The building exploded 7-8 hours later.

6. All the photos were taken, while the sun was still rising. This is noticeable by the level of the shadows on the faces of the rescue workers.

7. The resue workers possed the victims, for the media. The posses were not natural, and repeated.

8. There was little or no respect for the dead. Unlike other people, who prefer that the dead are not filmed, or exploited, these people deliberately exploited the situation.

9. There were very few, if any Hisbollah dead. This shows they left the women and the children, in the building, while knowing full well, they were killing them.

The Wikipedia Definition of "Pallywood"

2006-08-05T08:03:00.000-07:00

Pallywood is the name of a short 2005 documentary/video, produced by American historian and "pro-Israel leftist" Richard Landes, that asserts that Palestinian video journalists stage events in order to put Israel's policies in an unfavorable light.

The term Pallywood has since gained relative currency. It refers to the general allegation that many events are staged by Palestinian cameramen and video teams, sometimes using equipment from Western news agencies, and that the resulting footage is sent on to those agencies for international consumption.

These allegations reflect the importance for both sides in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict of winning the "media war" by providing journalists with imagery that presents only their side of the story in the conflict.

Examples include:

* allegations that riots and unrest did not start until the press arrived
* alleged falsification of the death of Muhammad al-Durrah in September, 2000
* allegedly staged photographs following the battle of Jenin in 2002
* allegedly staged funeral processions and casualties

Landes believes that this type of propaganda dates back to at least the war in Lebanon in 1982.

The extent and impact of such alleged manipulation is highly controversial and is part of a broader debate about media manipulation on both sides of the conflict.
