TV Fakery in Egypt: Al Jazeera crisis actor caught out on camera pretending to be wounded

'Watch this video as a crisis actor pretends to be an injured Egyptian Brotherhood fighter, before being caught out on camera sporting his fake wounds live on Al Jazeera.

But there’s more…

Brendan Hunt.com says: “In this footage, we can clearly see Egyptian supporters of ousted President Morsi faking injuries/deaths and using “crisis actors” to stage an attack. This type of false flag tactic is not unique to Egypt, and similar techniques may have been employed in the United States…”

Notice the signs all done in English. So this was staged for an American and European media audience. It’s difficult to know who staged this one, but one thing is clear: propaganda and counter-propaganda are a reality in our wired up world today.

All we’re missing now is Anderson Cooper on location being chased by angry mobs, and it’s a wrap:
