Muqata and snapped shot saw a photo that didn’t look right to them so they went to the blog that can spot a phony a mile away. LGF. Charles Johnson is an unabashed supporter of Israel and an enemy of all things Jihad. He is also an honest man:
It’s always good to question and criticize photos such as this, because as we’ve learned, occasionally an outright fake will come through the wires.
But in this case the picture is indisputably genuine—because here’s the same explosion photographed from the opposite point of view at about the same time, with the same flying debris and at least one of the same buildings, by a different photographer: Nikola Solic for Reuters.
It speaks very well for Johnson that he won’t sell his honor, not even for a propaganda edge in war.
