The camera never lies, they say -- but what if the photos are sent out by the Reuters news agency?

Take out Reuters, substitute AFP, and voila, if the shoe fits.

Below, an AFP photo taken today with caption outside the Rami Levy supermarket in Sha'ar Binyamin. Take a moment and think about both what the picture and caption conveys about what has taken place at this location.

A Palestinian activist is arrested by Israelis as dozens of Palestinians block the entrance to branch of the Rami Levy supermarket opened in the Shaar Binyamin Jewish settlement close to the city of Ramallah in the Israeli occupied Palestinian West Bank on October 24, 2012, as the protesters called for a boycott of goods being produced in the settlement.

Now perhaps a slightly different scene then AFP's photo-op and caption may have wished to suggest
