An image claimed by the CNN journalists Hala Gorani to be of a Syrian child discovered alone near the Jordanian borders while his leg was cut and bandaged with plastic bags, was found to be a part of different image where the family of the kid are seen walking ahead of him and his leg is fine.
Four-year-old Marwan, walking slowly, alone in the vast expanse of desert that forms the Syrian border with Jordan, his small fists clutching a plastic bag of his possession.
When Hala Gorani, the CNN news anchor, tweeted the photograph, with the caption “crossing the desert alone after being separated from family fleeing Syria” the story went viral.
Ms Gorani’s message was retweeted thousands of times, and within hours the story of little Marwan was picked up by news channels worldwide.
Jared Kohler, a UNHCR photographer, took a wide shot of the same scene. It shows several hundred refugees, streaming over the border from Syria to Jordan. And, in that crowd, Marwan is seen stumbling over the desert ground, just a few meters off to the side.
The photograph tweeted by Ms Gorani showed staff from the UNHCR refugee agency coming to help Marwan. Andrew Harper, the UNHCR representative to Jordan, who took the picture, had originally tweeted it with the more sober caption: “Here 4 year old Marwan, who was temporarily separated from his family, is assisted by UNHCR staff to cross.”
Mr Harper then posted a message on his twitter feed saying: “Just to let you know that Marwan was safely reunited with his mother soon after being carried across the Jordan border.”

The U.S., the major agent in Syria’s destruction and Syrians displacement, resorts to any false and inhumane measures to give Bashar Assad a bad name.

This is an example of a BIG problem with a simple solution.
The willingness of CNN to repeatedly and continually create news which are, in fact, contrived by them on matters of this much importance—is exactly and precisely why I never watch it in the first place. These actions are unforgivable. Not many things are, but this is one of them.
When trust is gone, everything associated with liars go with it. See ya…

Strange that hala individual gave up her right to think!
Had it not been for US/UK/EU TERRORISM & INSANE BARBARITY in Suriya- Marwan would safe & sound at home with his family/friends/community
Do not let the US/UK/EU think for you! it is their ministry of propaganda and DEATH that is responsible for Marwan’s situation and 10,000 4 year old like him across the globe
Do not let Lie News 24 think for you
