Did we say you bombed a Lebanese funeral procession, Israel? Sorry–we meant to say that you bombed a town and a funeral happened to be going on at the same time nowhere near the spot you bombed. Our bad. –Reuters mgmt.

Speaking of staged photos, someone take a look at cnn.com and tell me if that’s possible.

Move along, nothing to see here but bias pure and simple.

Hey Allah,

With a little humor, this Reuters stuff could be your old stick.

Maybe Reuters used a Clone Stamp Tool to place the funeral procession in the same area as the bombing.

You wouldn’t think so, would you? Try this page, and scroll to the 3rd image. Tell me that isn’t staged.

Unbelievable.

Message to bloggers taking on Reuters:

“Hit ‘em again, hit ‘em again, harder, harder!”

Must be the funeral for the “victims” at Qana.

Someone grab the binky, we’re gonna need that
for the next staged photo-op.
