Free tutorial: How to discredit a political opponent.
Step 1:
Find a picture of a scary armed Lebanese man from an online news source:

Step 2:
Grab a picture of a demonstration in Lebanon:

Step 3:
Get your opponent’s logo:

Step 4:
Open Photoshop, Slap the logo on the scary man’s shoulder, mask his picture out, play with the colors and saturation and carefully position it on the Lebanon demo pic:

Step 5:
Let your leader hold the picture on TV. (PS: Since the Photoshop job is so lousy, make sure you give him a black-and-white version lest he embarrasses himself)

Job done. Your opponents are now officially tarnished…
It’s sad. The FPM has a history with this kind of image doctoring. Remember the sprayed “FPM car” incident? It was when Canada’s FPM faction showed us a vandalized BMW picture, messed up by orange paint. The FPM said back then that it was a vandalism act by the hatred-driven LF and their -the keyword cometh- ‘militia’ ways:

It turned out that the picture was taken from a website, and that the car was sprayed by a ‘cheated wife’ to spite her husband (Thx blondy for the valuable links).
Here’s a plea to the FPM’s Photoshop artist: You’re welcome to express your talents here in The Beirut Spring. Forgery is serious matter in the real-world.
