An Israeli soldier hangs out of the turret of a tank that lies half buried in a crater. Another lies crumpled against the crater’s side. At least that is what the mannequins are intended to portray in this sound and light show that forms the climax of an exhibition presented by Lebanon’s “Hizbollah media” to mark last year’s war with Israel.

“There is nothing strange about this. Every country celebrates its victories with museums,” says Ali Ahmad, one of the organisers.
