Good news….now we have a real live person, FINALLY, to question about the Burning Six story: The Interior Ministry acknowledged Thursday that an Iraqi police officer whose existence had been denied by the Iraqis and the U.S. military is in……

Question: What caused the damage to the ambulances?

Undisputed fact: Ambulance was not hit by a Hellfire or TOW missile. (It would have been blown to tiny bits if it had)

Most Obvious Answer: The damage was not caused by any sort of weapon.

HRW Answer: Super Secret Magical Kinetic Energy Micro Missiles

Point was: Zombie’s version seems to have zero out-and-out lies, and infinitely fewer distortions and mistakes than any other version.

Occam’s Razor: do not discount the most obvious answer so quickly.

Once again, well done! It seems to me that mere kudos are not enough, it’s time for another Paypal donation. So once again, where is the Paypal button on your site?

Once again the moonbats screw themselves.

maybe they just used their JEW BLOOD SUCKING POWERS

You mean they used the SCHWARTZ?

Spaceballs, the Conspiracy Theory!

If the guy had his leg severed by a munition impacting it while lying on the gurney, I would have expected a good deal more blood around the hole in the floor, and particularly soaked into the foam padding shown in Zombies rebuttal.

…particularly if the guy bled for an hour and 40 minutes as he/HRW claims.

The point that’s lost on HRW is that this incident wouldn’t be the first one with a cooked-up ambulance. These shysters have been creating and using props like this for years, Red Cross ambulances in particular. And why not – when have they ever really been nailed for it by the world press?

What is noteworthy about this is that the Hezbo’s clearly understand Israel intentionally firing on an ambulance carrying civilians would be looked upon as violations of international law/human rights/etc. They also understand how exercised useful idiots will become when the allegation is made.

Meanwhile, the Hezbo’s can carry out very clear and public violations of international law/human rights/etc., and there is not a peep from those same useful idiots.

As to the ambulance, the picture posted in Zombies report in the THE HOLES IN THE ROOF AND THE FLOOR section is a little better than others. I would say the two creases in the lower left shows what happens from small arms fire, fired almost level with the roof, from the lower left towards the upper right.

I still say the metal in the upper part of the hole was peeled back. A munition impact would likely leave a more rounded hole. Peel back metal, and it will curl straight back.

Perhaps if HRW were not so arrogant, they would have asked Zombie to assist in their “investigation”…they wouldn’t have looked like such damn fools then.

Sorry, AP; I have to disagree with you here. I think that the MSM is, at least partially, responsible for how bad things currently are in Iraq. The fact that they’ve played down every good thing that has happened (other than the election), and super-hyped every bad thing, real or imagined, has emboldened our enemies while slowly sapping the will of the American people.

I’ve said it before, I’ll say it again the MSM is the enemy from within and the most dangerous. They have our Constitution to protect them were as the Jihadi’s we can shoot. They, MSM, will be the downfall our our country.

I suggest that everyone read the article in full, very interesting. The holes in the pavement made me think of prepositioning of IED’s.

But that logic applies if the incident was staged, too. If the Lebanese paramedics or Hezbollah or whoever had made up their mind to fake an attack on the Red Cross at Qana, of all places, why not torch one or both of the ambulances and make it really spectacular? Hezbollah would have paid for a new one.

Three words: Standard Operating Procedure.

The point that’s lost on HRW is that this incident wouldn’t be the first one with a cooked-up ambulance. These shysters have been creating and using props like this for years, Red Cross ambulances in particular. And why not – when have they ever really been nailed for it by the world press? So there’s been no incentive to change SOP, and thus no change in SOP.

Good question nevertheless. We need to be asking more questions like this. The reasoning process generated by them provides clarity and overdetermination in the result if the result is just, and well-deserved problems if not.

The IDF also has a drone that is able to fire while cloaked

LOL. IDF cloaking technology is years behind ours. They don’t need cloaks anyway as they can use their Evil Jew Powers to cloud mens’ minds.

Aren’t these stories of Israel using secret weapons that cause grevious wounds getting a little old? Is this part of a larger pattern of Anti-Semitism?

The IDF also has a drone that is able to fire while cloaked, but that’s a whole other issue.

When does Iraq get it’s telethon. I mean we talk about how violent it is for whatever reason (one being that they have been in chaos under a violent leader for 35 years). We haven’t made them violent, but the world can help them along.

I remind people that 80% of Iraq voted and they shrug. Some say we need more troops…shouldn’t those troops be from Egypt or Jordan. I can’t get my mind around people regardless of political leanings who will not help these people.

Would anyone doubt the situation would be FAR better had we even vocally had more support throughout the world. Yet, we are left with leaders who won elections by campaigning against the war.

I can only think that these same people are the ones who wish to bring down Israel. In their own cowardice they are moving away from any reason at all. All the while, patting themselves on the back for it.

I wonder what would have happened if someone other than Bush took on this incredible undertaking. I would hate to think this is so much about him. I’m not glorifying war, but I know what wrong is.

I see your point, Allah, but I don’t agree with your “I know that you know…” presentation. I don’t think we all know — or beleive — what you think we know, but thanks for the flattery.

I would personally love to see Occam’s Razor applied more often to the analysis. There’s a lot of very tortured logic involved, especially it seems from those trying to support the original, and clearly false, reports. And I think the razor would reveal that if so many aspects of the media’s story can be easily shown to be untrue, we might not need to go much further.

CBS all over again; fake, but true, etc.

See previous.Zombie responds to Human Rights Watch report on ambulance hoax Allahpundit Good reading, especially on a slow news day. The crux of HRW’s argument is that certain types of low-yield missiles could have caused the damage seen in photos…

I bet if blogging had been around in 1963, we’d know exactly who shot JFK and why.

or at least who didn’t and why, which is a more scientific goalpost anyway.

the hrw “debunking” seems to be just a bunch of name-calling and credulity. those “craters” are so very questionable. i’m not saying they are what they look like, but they look like they were augered. why not even try to fish the ordinance out?

Let’s see, I think it was the JEWS, in QANA, with the drone launched DIME, no wait, it was the SPIKE, no no, it was with A PREVIOSULY UNKNOWN KINETIC ENERGY PROJECTILE WEAPON, or maybe they just used their JEW BLOOD SUCKING POWERS. OK, so maybe I don’t know what happend or how, but I am positive that it was the Jews that did it and that it was a violation of human rights.

I’m sorry, they should have brought Gil Grissom from CSI because Gus always figures out who is the murderer, where it happened, and most importantly, WHAT THE MURDER WEAPON WAS. That last part is still missing from HRWs report.

If the Lebanese paramedics or Hezbollah or whoever had made up their mind to fake an attack on the Red Cross at Qana, of all places, why not torch one or both of the ambulances and make it really spectacular? Hezbollah would have paid for a new one.

Because then the casual news consumer wouldn’t be able to tell it was an ambulance. Random torched boxy vehicles are a dime-a-dozen.
