Welcome! This briefing will be looking hard at the dark places the mainstream media sometimes seem determined to look away from, to better understand our declared enemies on their own terms and without illusions. Our……

The wingnuts are furiously circle-jerking their way around a second lap of Reuters, having revealed that not one, but two photographs by Beirut-based freelance photographer Adnan Hajj had been altered. The picture that kicked this off is a staggering s…

Mentre i mainstream media italiani ignorano completamente “la notizia dell’estate”, il ReutersGate sbarca sui giornali di tutto il mondo. E la valanga non sembra destinata a fermarsi. The Jawa Report ha scoperto una seconda foto taroccata (sempre de…

Lucianne posted the picture above with the following caption: “Reuters responds to criticism over doctored photo of Lebanon attack with a replacement”. Update: Kim linked earlier to Allah Pundit’s post that included a mention of the film, “Shatter…

This is one I’ll leave for readers and especially photo experts to decide on their own, but reader Michelle wonders if the man known as “White T-Shirt” (yeah, “Green Helmet’s Qana pal), is actually the same man as a Hizbollah……

I was turned on to yet another Hajj scandal by reader Michelle, and have dug a little deeper to add to it. Obviously Hajj is officially discredited so the piling on isn’t necessary, but the point still remains that Reuters……

There is one thing that has been bothering me about the first faked photo, the one with the smoke plumes. Why did he do that? Why manipulate the smoke that way? At first I thought it was to make it look as if two bombs had hit instead of one, but then when I heard Charles from LGF say that the photographer had “cloned” buildings as well and I noticed that in the doctored photo it gives the impression that the bombs hit in different places than it actually did.

So…was he maybe trying to make it seem that a bomb hit a certain spot that actually wasn’t hit? And if so why? There has to be a reason for his cloning! It is driving me crazy. I think it is important to know. Can’t your fancy brain figure it out? Because my slow one cannot.

Seems that our old Lebanese chap over at Reuters may have doctored a few more photographs. It’s pretty funny to see all the zillions of “Spoof Hajj” work. Allah presents this: Here is another photo that Reuters is saying is……

*****UPDATE***** Reuters pulls all Hajj photos. Congratulations conservative blogosphere, you’ve done it again. SCROLL to the bottom of this post for full details and more updates… ****SCROLL FOR UPDATES**** AFP labels one photo with two opposing ca…

Thank goodness for bloggers or I am afraid that this stuff would never be caught…..

Allah points me toward this Rick Moran post highlighting how some of the rest of the blogosphere is reacting to the Reuters story. The post title tells you most of what you need know, but hell -- let's pile on a bit After reviewing a litan…

Original photo debunking story here. The nail in the coffin (via YNet). Kudos, Rusty! Update: Fox News video of the story is under “Latest News Headlines” Michelle Malkin: All of Hajj’s photos have been pulled by MargaReuterVille. Update too:……

The “blood” paint job is pretty bad which is probably why they tried to add some unblooded skin patches to the face. They used a skin color that wasn’t quite right but the smoking gun is the added skin drops below the dark eyebrow and you can still see the dark eyebrow underneath the added skin layer.

Someone might want to bring this one to the attention of LGF and others who are documenting the photo fraud. I would but I’m not registered at these other blogs.

The lizardoids at LGF have triumphed – they indisputably proved that Adnan Hajj doctored his now-infamous photo of Beirut.

My Pet Jawa discovered another altered photo, done by Hajj, and now all 920 of his photographs are under suspicion.

While t…

Just how many lies are out there that sparked international demonstrations over Qana?Now The Jawa Report exposes another fake photo from Reuters….

What clowns…

What losers….

What is amazing and sad is that the Masses are handed their thoughts and ideas.

This is no different than domestic brainwashing – i.e. global warming and regulation, WOT, Bush, Wal-Mart, etc.

My relative once bashed Wal-Mart. After pointing out that she probably had retirement stock in Wal-Mart and after about 10 minutes on the Internet to deny/confirm — What do you know?

Wal-mart stock was owned…

The Masses (and everyone else) are losing big time.

*****************

I have never thought it was a stretch to say that we have always been in a cultural battle of thoughts and ideas.

Just because we have at times, what seems like, a relative calm, …

Who will win this cultural war of thoughts and ideas?

Are the photos fake but accurate?

What do you mean by accurate?

While they have “pulled” all 920 of Adnan Hajj’s photos and added a note to the “worst photoshop ever,” Reuters has yet to add anything to the second faked photo….

I was thinking maybe there was an attempt to airbrush part of it away to make it look like dirt. Especially above the rifle barrel where some arabic writing would have been it looks like some faded cloning ( three dots ).

Probably nothing there but I can’t help suspecting everything this Hajj guy does.

This story keeps growing.  The Reuters photographer has been dropped an all his photos have been withdrawn as a second photo has been found……
