Dodgy Photoshop vs. Reality

55 more die.

ISRAELI attacks killed at least 55 people in Lebanon today and a UN security council vote on a resolution to end the 27-day-old conflict was delayed after Arab nations objected to the draft.

An Israeli strike on a crowded area in Shiite-dominated south Beirut destroyed a building and killed at least 15 people, rescue workers said.

At least 30 were wounded. Rescuers dug through the rubble with a bulldozer and with their hands as fire engines doused burning ruins and the charred shells of cars.

Israeli air raids killed at least 40 people in southern Lebanon and the eastern Bekaa Valley.
