I wonder if they covered the suicide bombings in Israel with as much enthusiasm, and if the reporters on the scene there received some ghoulish $500 prize...

Somehow, I think I know the answer to that already...

The man is likely where he is because it's in the shade... I can attest to seeking the shade whenever possible, over here (Iraq, and before that Afghanistan.) I'm NOT speaking about any staged aspects of the image, just the practical one. ;0)

"....as it's none of our business to be involved in a war that is not in our best interests."

First, I see you have bought the whole Qana thing, hook, line and sinker, replete with the gruesome, glossy, pre-positioned stills. Conscience notwithstanding, you must endure over a whoring media dancing to the Islamofacists' flames.

Secondly, it is our damn business. Have you fogotten the terrorist group responsible for the Marine barracks bombing? Anything else come to mind? As well, it is in our best interests to see these monkeys killed and/or caged. Damn your sensibilities!

With all due respect - Hezbollah is a client of Iran, which is the chief player in the war on terror.

This is NOT a separate war - it is a different front, in the same war.

A Tree and Its Fruit

15"Watch out for false prophets. They come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ferocious wolves. 16By their fruit you will recognize them. Do people pick grapes from thornbushes, or figs from thistles? 17Likewise every good tree bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit. 18A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, and a bad tree cannot bear good fruit. 19Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. 20Thus, by their fruit you will recognize them.

Not surprised at all. Dhimmi Western Media is happy to play to the tune of Jihadists. And they wonder why they are loosing the audience.

Some Freeper will undoubtedly come up with a nice "GIF" for the $500 Blood Money prize awarded these "journalists." I wish I knew how to do it myself!

Last night, I asked Charles how he can be certain that this is an actual email that was sent out to AP staff and not some hoax engineered to entrap bloggers. I have enough trust of Charles to know that he can track the origin of this email to the AP server, but how do we know it actually circulated internally?

"If it seems too good to be true, it probably is."

FRmail me to be added or removed from this Judaic/pro-Israel/Russian Jewry ping list.

Warning! This is a high-volume ping list.

I noticed that there was no signature on the posted letter addressed to "AP Staffers." Nor was there any signature on the version that appeared on "Little Green Footballs."

Does anyone know who wrote and signed this infamous letter? Would it be the AP's Chairman of the Board? If so, who is he (or she)?

MSM hardly ever corrects a story. They never corrected the story about the Balkan concentration camps.

"Beirut-based photographer Hussein Malla immediately called AP photographers Nasser Nasser, Lefteris Pitarakis and stringer Mohammed Zaatari and advised them to rush to the scene."

It's SATIRE folks. Look at these names - they're made up. Obviously written by some right-winger trying to make it look like the AP is just another arm of the terrorists. LEFTeris? Give me a break! /s

Kind of like the whole Qana thing was made up.

sniff, sniff...I think I smell another "pulitzer prize" for the AP photogs. After all, they won for the picture of a terrorist killing an Iraqi election worker in the street so why not a win for using dead children as props...
