Reuters has withdrawn a second photograph and admitted that the image was doctored, following the emergence of new suspicions against images provided by the news organization.

Re: Reuters: Is this not a THIRD?
The ?third-doctored picture was by the same notorious "photographer"
and has the same distinctive smoke pattern. Does it not?

Methinks you are jesting.
Isn't that the perp (Adnan Hajj) in the photo himself?

Rusty Shackleford, owner of the My Pet Jawa web log , noted that the warplane in the picture is actually firing defensive flares aimed at dealing with anti-aircraft missiles.Rusty Shackleford? Isn't that Dale Gribble's alias on King of the Hill?

Why don't these guys just hire Pixar or someone like that and they can make up all the phony crap they want. They can have images of Mohammed striking Israeli jet out of the sky, they can have thousands of dead babies, they can show IDF forces popping our womens' eyeballs. Man, they have the money. Why not go for it! Who needs some Muslim fumbduck with Photoshop??

Looks viable to me, i.e. not doctored.
The "cloning" in the first withdrawn photo is friggin' obvious to anyone who has actually doctored a photo that way. This photo's smoke looks properly natural.
(Could be wrong; that's just from a glance at a shrunk image.)
