I don't think we're talking about the same thing here. By staged I mean it was planned, and carefully as all good military operations are. I think you mean it was faked which of course it was not.

It wasn't Suppose to be a Military operation, it was portrayed as the Iraqi people taking down the statue of Sadam. Hence a staged photo opportunity. Papers all over the world carried the headline of the celebrating crowd and the falling statue of Saddam which is untrue and nothing more then a cheap propergander shot.
