This was taking in Saudi Arabia during war time with missiles falling, its doubtful they wanted to film out in the street, I wouldn't.
so an elaborate fabrication of a "live" story, complete with air raid sirens and gas masks, all the while being saturated with the theme of danger and risk, while broadcasted from the safety of a soundstage far away shouldn't be criticized?

i have posted it before, that's why i called it "classic footage". just because the video has been available in the past doesn't make it any less relevant to more recent faked news from the middle east like jessica lynch's staged rescue, the staged toppling of saddam statues, bin laden "murder", etc etc
