First off, hat tip to Chris Albon for all of these links on his twitter feed and to Zen Pundit for the video on his blog.

Here is some first-rate disinformation by al-Jazeera English. Hopefully they include the Israeli Defense Forces in the credits because this windfall is courtesy of the IDF.

Not that it matters, but here is what really happened, below.

And here is another angle.

Someone with a sharp eye notices the al-Jazeera “journalist” in the middle of the action at 0:37.

Another notices a good still shot of an IDF Soldier brandishing a non-lethal weapon amidst the melee. Bonus points to him for amazing restraint.

Here is what the IDF found on board (again, not that the truth will matter).

The most decisive battles can be won in the media.
