You Won't BELIEVE This!!
From Michelle Malkin, we get this:
" An elderly Iraqi woman shows two bullets which she says hit her
house [emphasis added] following an early coalition forces raid in the
predominantly Shiite Baghdad suburb of Sadr City."
The only way those bullets hit her house was if someone threw them at her house.
You see, they've never been fired. For those of you unfamiliar with firearms, only the little copper-looking tip is the actual bullet. The larger, cylindrical casing below it holds the primer and the gunpowder that propels the bullet out of the firearm.
Nice going, AFP! Proof again, that members of the MSM are often dupes for terrorist propagandists, and know very little about things military.
Look at it like this: That picture had to have passed through at least several news people, including AFP's editors, before it was posted. An AFP editor chose that picture as representative of the printed story. And none of the people in that chain knew anything about guns, or if any of them did, they got so excited about posting another picture in the antiwar, anti-US genre of photojournalism, -- pictures depicting these types of scenes: Crying mother holding a dead baby killed by Americans, old woman crying because of the Americans, old man carrying a dead baby, killed by Americans, American-injured child, American-bloodied child, etc. (and they post such pictures even when the story is about the "price of tomatoes" in Baghdad) -- that they "missed" an in-your-face obvious bit of propaganda, courtesy of the Mahdi Army.
Now, for all you latte-sippin', gun-fearing, military-hating, anti-US, lefty journalists, below are two pictures that will help you determine whether a bullet held up by a fellow propagandist has, or has not, been fired:
Bullets that have been fired and have hit something.
Bullets that have not been fired and have not hit anything unless they were thrown, not fired, at something.
And mealy-mouthed liberals accuse Fox News of lying! If someone is stoopid enough to believe this garbage, he is not qualified to make ANY news judgment. In fact, he is not qualified to feed himself.

I laughed before I even finished the sentence. For pete's sake, you don't even have to watch much TV to know those are unfired bullets. I'm going to break out in giggles to myself all day today over that one!
I routinely experience stuff like this. Journalists are not only totally ignorant, but switch off their brains when the subjects are the military and religion.
One of my editors was once awestruck when I told him that I had never smoked -- not even once. In his mind, I was in the military, military people all smoke, therefore, I must have smoked.
They don't even look like 5.56 MM(used in the M-16 and SAW). They look closer to the 7.62 MM (AK-47).
I guess We found out what Marla Mapes new job is.
It is unbelievable that as much as we know about the "mainstream" media, their agenda, their distortion and misinformation, they still continue to amaze us!
Unbelievable...
This would be too funny if it wasn't so pathetic....
Ditto for me as to Trader Rick's comment. . but I did shoot a little 7-Up out of my nose when I first saw the photo.
