So he admitted doing it:

A civil defense worker who has drawn controversy for holding up the bodies of children killed in Lebanon said Tuesday he was lightly injured fighting a weekend fire sparked by an Israeli bomb.

The 20-year veteran civil defense worker said he shows dead children to photographers to make clear that Israeli airstrikes killed young Lebanese during the monthlong conflict. Some Internet bloggers have accused him of setting up photos and of treating the dead insensitively.

Go watch the video for yourself and see if he treats “the dead insensitively.” (Hint: he holds the little boys head up so that the camera man can take the video.) And BTW, bloggers aren’t the only ones making this accusation the video is from German TV.
