Freepers!...we're losing the image war. Photographs of the wounded at Fort Hood do not circulate among the major media. The wounded in Vietnam were commonly depicted in a way which maximized the public disgust with the war effort but the victims of jihadists are not shown in such an emotional way.
The blood of civil rights demonstrators and marchers were commonly shown in the '60s and the image of the murdered and mutilated Emmett Till is a common icon to this day.
But there is a lack of circulation of 9-11 pics (outside conservative media), mall shootings, Jihad victims, and nearly a complete absence of photographs and videos of the Fort Hood victims.
Did anyone see images of the casualties at the Little Rock Recruitment Center, Fort Hood, the Utah Mall, or any other recent jihad attack in/on Newsweek, Time, CNN, CBS, ABC, or other mainline media?
OUTSTANDING observation/post! Thanks. BUMP-TO-THE-TRUTH!
I refuse to believe this is an accident. These slime bags are probably on the same side as the terrorists. They certainly both have the same agenda, the destruction of America.
Do you happen to know if that is an unaltered pic? ...or has it been changed to show the decent of one jumper?

There is no truth in the Pravda Media. Lies by omission are lies as well.
The media labelled the Leftists protests of Boosh “antiwar” and “peace marches” but they were often decidedly PRO-Palestinian war and called for death and torture of our president and troops.
The links between the antiAMERICAN war movement and Communists was never articulated in the press although it was evident in the signs and literature at these events.
Vandalism of the homes, campaign offices, cars, and businesses of Bush-Cheney and McCain-Palin Republicans was never treated as a NATIONAL story, strictly isolated “local” events.
The firebombing and kidnapping plots at the 2008 RNC convention resulted in convictions but there never was a national news story on either domestic terrorist event courtesy of the violent Left in the US.
Thanks for posting that combo pic! Do you have a link to a higher resolution one or could you post a higher res one? I need it for a PowerPoint pres at Fort Benning.
Thanks,
Monty
