Seriously? Just how dumb does the main stream media think we are? This is not the 1980s. They can't just publish something and expect no alternative analysis. The photo taken by Adnan Haji published by al-Reuters showing amazingly symetrical smoke coming from a bombed Beruit was just the first...there appear to be more cases of doctored photos coming to light.
My Pet Jawa reports on another one that is funny if it weren't so serious. My first thought when I saw it was...well, duh...how can a plane fire a rocket behind itself? My favorite comment by a guest there is this:
"Bombs drop steeply away from the plane, rockets fire forward of the plane, otherwise the plane will shoot itself down." PeterUK
Great minds think alike Peter.
Sites like Little Green Footballs and Michelle Malkin are why I don't watch the news any longer. I can get all the important details from them and talk radio. If I need to know what's going on locally I'll just ask my mom. And even then I can only rely so much on her and have to check out sites like Sound Politics. She still seems to place some credibility with the local rag, Newsweek, and Channel 5.
