It's a rhetorical question. Why should we believe any picture provided by any side in a conflict has any purpose other than as propaganda for their side? Manipulated, staged, or just pointing the camera a few degrees to the right, and you can present the situation with your own bias.

I can't help but get the feeling you are just repeating some argument you had with someone else, because I never implied anything of the sort.

The things that are too hard to believe are that this particular photographer doctored the photo so poorly, that whoever did it thought it wouldn't be noticed, or that everyone with internet access and their fucking dog thinks they know EXACTLY what happened 6000 miles across the surface of the planet, when they don't know shit beyond the spin of their favorite news PRODUCT.
