Fair request. I share the assessement offered here (caution, graphic 
images amongst those that I, along with the author, consider fake):

'The pictures above all look astonishingly similar: rubble, dust or 
rather haze from a smoke grenade in the background, dusted/greasepaint 
bloody kids who have no visible trauma, the rescuer with the kid moving 
towards the camera. Dramatic, high quality scenes which do get 
distributed by news agencies and published again and again by major 
"western" media.

Isn't it an amazing fortune that so many kids get rescued alive by the 
"White Helmets", without any serious wounds visible, just moments after 
bomb impacts? This week after week? With all the same attributes in each 
picture?

No photo editor at any of the big media ever wondered about that?

Some of these photos may show real scenes. But most are definitely 
staged. These staged photos are part of the war propaganda against the 
Syrian people and their government.'

This seems rather obviously fake:

As does the video footage from the rescue of little Omran:

I have already provided a link to the White Helmets' "mannequin 
challenge" video and to the video report in "The Independent" on the 
people arrested in Egypt while shooting photographs of "wounded" and 
presumably also "tortured" children (the paper bag is a nice touch...) 
in "eastern Aleppo" for the Western propaganda mill.

But of course, your mileage may vary and you will have to trust your own 
eyes and your own judgement...


In any case, there can be no doubt that the "fiercely independent" White 
Helmets -- who have been created and trained by former British Military 
Intelligence officer James Le Mesurier and have received at least 100 
million dollars from Western governments -- as well as the French 
government funded Aleppo Media Center are propaganda outlets of the 
rebels. As everybody knows or should know, the term "rebels" includes 
Al-Qaeda aka Al-Nusra aka whatever their current name is and the 
US-sponsored child beheaders from Al-Zenki (now there is an authentic 
video!).
