“Nothing makes racist Americans smile more than pictures of bombs killing kids.”

I don’t see any kids being killed. Who are you referring to?

[tioga]

did they leave the women and children behind?

Nothing makes racist Americans smile more than pictures of bombs killing kids.

Bloods, Crips and Latin Kings are kids too.

OneVike: Where did you get this authentic photo? From a reputable source? Or did you photoshop it yourself?

Best,

Nothing makes racist Americans Muslim fundamentalists smile more than pictures of bombs killing kids.

Looks fake. It would have to have extremely high shutter speed to capture the bomb dropping so clearly. I suspect if it were real, the bomb would just look like a smudge.

Fake

I found it on a blog, and later after posting realized it was photo shopped. But it is kind of cool for chat.

I’m not a professional photographer, but I don’t believe there’s any way does a camera that is optimized for photographing reasonably still subjects, captures a bomb falling through space at terminal velocity.

I found a REAL picture on the internet of a guy in a WINTER coat standing on the top of the twin towers with the terrorists flying the jet into the tower in the background. Somehow, lord only knows, the camera survived everything, and was found in a load of steel girders with the photographers hand still on the clicker....there is no way it isn’t a real picture....since I found it on the internet and all.........

Google "fauxtography".

This picture is number six or seven on the first page of the search results.

I agree. Kid in soccer shirt has no feet. Photoshop.

The feet are strange, like the Photoshopper did the difficult work of placing the running kids in the scene, when the easiest thing to do would be to put the bomb in the sky above running kids.

I also was wondering if it was supposed to be an American bomb killing Innocent civilians.

My vote: Fake.

Ping me again when you can get a REAL picture of a Trident II MIRV heading towards Mecca.

[Michael Barnes]

Total photoshop...Enlarge the image in PS or gIMP. You’ll see it.

[smokingfrog]

Maybe it's an errant Hezbolla rocket.
