Or ... maybe the PT board has people who have spent significant time in the Middle East, know the tactics of certain groups in the region, and know a staged incident when they see one.

Sure ... the cops weren't in on it ... but, the kid was put in that position for a reason ... the reason being, so that him getting his assed whipped could easily be recorded ... and then use of the footage for exploitation.

so by staged you mean....that by him just being there he'd get his arse beat?

quote:
In March, Israeli forces shot and killed Yousef al-Shawamrah, 14, with live ammunition in the southern West Bank near his village of Deir al-Asal al-Fawqa. He was shot while looking for thistle in an area of land belonging to the village that now sits on the other side of Israel’s separation barrier. As he and two friends crossed through an open area, soldiers fired live ammunition toward the boys, hitting Yousef in the hip and back.

In December 2013, Wajih Wajdi al-Ramahi, 15, from Jalazoun refugee camp north of the West Bank city of Ramallah was fatally shot with live ammunition fired by an Israeli soldier. Documenting the killing, DCI-Palestine found that Wajih had been shot in the back from a distance of 150-200 meters (about 500 feet).
