There's obviously a lot of emotional investment been placed in agreeing with the initial lie that the Lebanese (inluding the poor guy who lost one of his limbs) made up a story, coz y'know, like, Arabs, they make up lots of lies and are always trying to make Israel look evil and nasty. And now faced with facts and the bleeding obvious megafact that unlike them, HRW actually went there and investigated it themselves, it's probably best just to imply that HRW aren't credible or believable (apart from when they're criticising Palestinian groups or talking about Jenin and then they're an authority above all others!!), and do the armchair military expert routine and talk about weapons as though they're an authority on them... ;)
