Original Note:
This still of 8 year old Muhammad al-Durrah comes from a video shown on France 2, in 2000, during the Second Intifada. It is now known the video was edited, the accusations are blood libel & French media monitors state "Everyone in France knows the footage is a hoax". https://jcpa.org/article/the-muhammad-al-dura-blood-libel-a-case-analysis/ https://www.jpost.com/opinion/a-look-back-at-the-muhammad-al-dura-affair-20-years-later-644066 https://www.jpost.com/middle-east/muhammad-al-dura-the-boy-who-was-not-really-killed-312930 https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/middle-east/the-killing-of-12yearold-mohammed-aldurrah-in-gaza-became-the-defining-image-of-the-second-intifada-only-israel-claims-it-was-all-a-fake-8624311.html
