More video has aired, allegedly showing Iraqi snipers targeting American troops.
The video shows at least three soldiers falling to the ground after apparently being shot by snipers in separate attacks. It's unclear when or where the attacks took place. The footage was stamped with the emblem of the Islamic Army in Iraq, a major Sunni Arab insurgent group.
CNN aired sniper video last week. The network has defended that as part of an effort to show what it calls the "unvarnished truth" about the war.
California Congressman Brian Bilbray has criticized CNN for airing what he terms "a terrorist snuff film."

Here's a curious item, why doesn't CNNs "truth" ever support our country let alone the administration?
CNN truth = propaganda
Al Jazeera probably got their footage from CNN.
The "unvarnished truth" would be to show something positive going on over there. CNN didn't even bother covering the first ever democratic election.
Bet a coke that CNN airs this, too.
Gotta' be some of that stuff around. Might as well start running it.
He argued that CNN not only had a right but a duty to air this piece of filth.
And...let me get this right, we're not supposed to question these people's patriotism???
Hey cnn, howzabout showing your terrorist brothers committing a human sacrifice by sawing the head off of a hancuffed civilian while chanting "allahu akbhar" to satan? Maybe the unvarnished truth of a homicide bomber blowing up muslim children getting candy and toys from Infidel Crusader Soldiers? No? Might tarnish the image of the one's your plugging for?
If President Bush's poll numbers are actually dropping among Republicans it's because he's not prosecuting these traitors, the ny times and others for treason and giving aid and comfort to the enemy.
And .. Duncan Hunter, Chairman of the Armed Services Committee has written a letter to Rumsfeld asking that CNN's embedded reporters be removed from Iraq.
I'm not holding my breath, but I sure wish Rumsfeld would do it.
Rep.Duncan Hunter asked Rummy to pull CNN`s ticket in Iraq for this sickening footage. Got to wonder if it was staged just for the Clinton News Network. Please call your Congress Critter and ask them to support Congressman Hunter.
What's truly pathetic is communist news network's grandstanding about getting this "exclusive" footage from their contacts in the insurgency, as if they are some self important "respectable" journalists. What a load of B.S.
The cnn staff most likely got this video straight off the internet, like youtube which has been posting these sorts of videos for years now.
I saw Kalb....but he is a newsman...they stick together.
Have you ever watched Newswatch?? The only people they get mad at are Bush and Rush.
I think it should be investigated how they got that video.
I know there were some questions, when the first part of the war was going ....that CNN's reporter Nic Robertson seemed to have a lot of footage that seemed to be "right place at right time" type. hmmmmmm??
When the Union failed to utterly destroy the Southern slave-owning class and its army, it was then necessary for the nation to have to put up with their nonsense for another century.
It's going to be the same in Iraq. We either run the Sunni Arabs out of Iraq, or let the Shia slaughter them, else there will be no end to the so-called "insurgency".
I wonder if Kalb thinks that CNN also has a "duty" to air the WTC jumper films that are out there. He's nothing but a leftist hypocrite. Many leftist hypocrites are showing up on FOX News Channel these days. I took Limbaugh's advice and completely stopped watching any news. Especially FOX. They've thrown in the towel and gone over to the dark side, IMHO. I get all my news here now.
