And those reporters paid the price for their ignorance.
What unbelievable knuckleheads the left and the MSM are.
Making the rounds over the last few days is this video in which Wikileaks says there were unarmed civilian reporters who were killed for no other reason than they had cameras.
Complete and utter bulls&%t.
[VIDEO AT SITE]
This was 2007 people. There was still a war going on. And it sucks that the reporters deemed it necessary to embed themselves with the enemy, but they knew full well what the results might be.
Rusty at The Jawa Report has screen shots of the video clearly showing that the men they were milling about with were armed, that there was in fact RPG's amongst them and that they appeared about to engage American troops. If you're a civilian and you stick around with that crowd you will pay the price, and that's what happened here.
On top of this the lefties and the media are up in arms about the van that came to pick up the wounded.
But you drive your van into an active military engagement? What the hell were you thinking?

Not just the van...It was also “take your kids to work day” for the terrorists.
2 reuters terrorists errr... journalists killed? Sounds like a good start.
If they didn’t want to be killed maybe they shouldn’t have had names like “Saeed Chmagh” and “Namir Noor-Eldeen”
I wonder how many encounters he had to drive those kids to before he "got lucky" and scored a propaganda win by getting them shot. When I'm going into combat (thankfully in the past, I hope), I leave my children and all other children behind, but I'm a Christian, and I love life.
