I've seen shots where that selfsame woman (if, of course, we're talking of the same shot) tell that the tv-crew (I don't remember which) actually paid her and the others in the street to act out the festival scenes. They had (according to her) no idea what it was going to be used for and were very shocked to learn it.

The tv-crew in question will probably deny this, which would leave us with the unpleasant choice of whom to believe.

I at least find that a hard choice, but I tend to lean towards believing

the woman.

She made denials well *after* the fact and after it was revealed who she was. You make it sound like her denials were contemporaneous.

In fact she said she made the denials because she needed to cross into Israel to work and was afraid her public glee at the terrorist attack would affect her ability to travel freely. If you believe her you are pretty gullible.
