On the night of July 23, 2006, an Israeli aircraft intentionally fired missiles at and struck two Lebanese Red Cross ambulances performing rescue operations, causing huge explosions that injured everyone inside the vehicles. Or so says the global media, including Time magazine, the BBC, the New York Times, the Los Angeles Times and thousands of other outlets around the world. If true, the incident would have been an egregious and indefensible violation of the Geneva Convention, and would constitute a war crime committed by the state of Israel.
But there's one problem: It never happened.
Read the whole article. It takes apart another blatant piece of Arab propaganda which was perpetrated by an easily duped western press who know no shame. I wonder how many of them will publish corrections.

Again try to deny the Israel creulty ? What about killing of chidrens in the town of canaa? Yes, they attemted to deny that massacre incident whereby some 40 - 50 children died of Israeli bombing, news spread all over the world, still the UN failed to show us the proper punishment taken on Israel. Why? they are all the same shit but different faces.
We are living in the sickning world with leaders beating around the BUSH .
I agree, we live in a sick world. A world where religious radicals hide among children and bring destruction to the innocent.
We live in a world where religious radicals (Islamists) have brutally murdered thousands and thousands of people in the past five years alone. From Bali to Morocco, From the Phillipines to Beslan, Islamists are responsible for the death and destruction. It is a fact that Muslims are killing more Muslims anyone else. Think about that.
Until the Muslim world overcomes it's irrational hatred of Israel and looks in a mirror, the madness will continue.
Ya know, Pejabat - you're correct! I'm sick of beating around the "BUSH".
We need a new President that won't hesitate when it's time to annihilate TERRORIST MUSLIM NATIONS!
Now, go hide behind a child - OK!
Human Rights Watch puts Qana death toll at 28
NEW YORK (Reuters) - The U.S.-based rights watchdog Human Rights Watch on Wednesday put the death toll from an Israeli air strike at the Lebanese village of Qana at 28 and 13 missing, below the official Lebanese figure of 54 dead.
The incident on July 30 was one of the deadliest strikes in the 22-day-old war between Israel and the Lebanese-based Hizbollah guerrillas and jolted international efforts to resolve the conflict.
"The initial estimate of 54 persons killed was based on a register of 63 persons who had sought shelter in the basement of the building that was struck, and rescue teams having located nine survivors," Human Rights Watch said in a statement on Wednesday.
"It now appears that at least 22 people escaped the basement, and 28 are confirmed dead, according to records from the Lebanese Red Cross and the government hospital in Tyre," Human Right Watch said in a statement. It gave the names and ages of those killed.
The other 13 people were missing and presumed by some Qana residents to be buried in the rubble.
Of the 28 dead, 16 were children, Human Rights Watch said.

ON A day in which thousands of Shiite militia took to the streets of Baghdad demanding an end to sectarian violence, at least 12 people were killed and 14 wounded, most of them children, when two bombs exploded near a soccer field.
The blasts occurred in a Shiite area of western Baghdad. Two unidentified men hid the explosives in sports bags near children watching a match between neighbourhood teams. At half-time the bombs exploded simultaneously.
Late on Wednesday night gunmen attacked a police checkpoint 30 kilometres south of Baghdad, killing 14 people, including six policemen.
Police in Kut also reported finding 18 bodies in the Tigris River showing signs of torture, and said had all been shot.
It's a sick world.
