Oh, and what's this "Khaleej Times"? Link?
And what is going to prevent Iraqi's from shooting them as traitors to their cause for freedom?
Also, the journalists want to hang out with terrorists because the terrorists know when and where the news is going to happen. Isn't it amazing that the journalists are at most major bombings near the very beginning. We were suspicious when Al-Jezeera was there thinking they were in collusion w/the enemy and I don't know how we can think anything less of these journalists.
It’s too late to do that in Iraq, but not too late to impede the progress of propagandists. Killing them is not an option, but refusing to make special no-fire zones so they travel unimpeded is justified.
How about this for guidance?
Anyone accompanying "insurgents", by Geneva Convention definition, is an enemy combatant.
LOL. Need to keep the population of excess, disease-ridden Leftists down.
Michael Yon doesn't seem to have any problem getting good stories...
Absolutely.
And I suppose that if Reuters wanted to follow a Jeffrey Dahmer-style killer as he raped and murdered his victims, they think they would be entitled to do that. In my mind, they are accessories to murder.
Michael Yon is a real reporter and a real American, not a shill for terrorists waiting at the hotel bar for the insurgents the news agency hired yesterday to return with a 'story'.
I think that such things have happened. There have been times when a journalist could have intervened to stop a crime and didn't so they could have a good story.
