What is it with Palestinians and toys?

I was so taken by this photo in the SMH that I took a photo of it (I was in a cafe at the time, and the paper is from last weekend). The caption reads, "Khalid Abed Rabbo sitting in his family's ruined home, clutching his children's toys".


I searched for this photo online, and could only find this one in The Age:


It's been cropped, and the caption is different - but it's the same photo.

I think we have seen this sort of heart-string tugging propaganda before....

Although the house is rubble, the toys look like they are spotlessly clean. Hmm....
