They post, and drivel on about, their heroes.

The Iraqi forces are armed with AKs. The MSM doesn't know the difference!

Those aren't our guys with the AK's. Those are Iraqi Army troops.

The AK-47 is the weapon of the Iraqi Army.

They stay in their protected enclaves in Baghdad and they BUY these terrorists photos from Al Jazeera, etc.

They've been doing this all year. Please note Najaf has now been peaceful for at least 3 months, have we seen ANY pictures of this city recovering? The answer is of course NO.

ONLY violence in Iraq is of interest to the MSM, just imagine if we were greeted every morning with a wrap up of all the violence committed daily throughout the U.S. and nothing else. Media whores IMHO

The Iraqi National Guard - free liberated Iraq - uses AKs because they have so many left over from Saddam's era.

AK's??? More reliable, easier to get ammo, just pull it off a captured/killed insurgent, no resupply shortage there...

The MSM is rooting for the other side...
