Did you even bother to look at his photos? Not one of them seems anti-war to me. They are pictures of prisoners. Clearly this guy is being used by this site.

Go to his blog. He seems pretty supportive of the troops. And, he seems pretty objective. It's not his fault the marine shot the guy in front of his camera.

I think the marines should eliminate any percieved threat at their discretion. Sites just caught that on tape. No problem to me. It's the MSM that is using this for nefarious purposes.

Raybbr, maybe you didn't read this page of his blog where he names soldiers by name, rank, State of origin and then gives explicit details on their mission, and he quotes them.

Maybe it's permissible to name names of all the soldiers, wounded and otherwise in the company, along with detailed photos of the day's action, street names and what appear to be identifiable landmarks and descriptions, but it doesn't ring right with me.

Sites is a TOTAL anti-war IDIOT !!! He gets NO excuses from me !!! . I've watched his "reporting" for WAY too long now to give him ANY credit for objectivity,(standing near the mosque "rubble" and blaming the soldiers for indiscriminately "blowing up a muslem religious site, which is not winning the hearts and minds of the Iraqui people"...


...and I'll bet ya it was Lil' Kevey that gave THAT footage to Al-Jazerra ALSO !!!!!


Don't EVEN believe for a minute that Sites is objective. I watched for about 4 days in a row as Imus kept blowing smoke up his ass with each new more slanted anti- war report, until Kevin finally DID THIS ONE !!!!

Sites is out for HIMSELF !!!!

I would REALLY like to "meet" him someday.

It WILL be on CNN if I do.......

"Friends, photographers and artists ... were invited to give their visual statement against war."

Yes, I looked at the photos. The pictures he posted are meant to provoke a response, against war. He is covering a war between America and terrorists. He chooses to post pictures of terrorists taken captive by Americans. He posts NO pictures of wounded or dead Americans. He posts NO pictures of Iraqi children injured, maimed or killed by by terrorist bombs. He chooses to post disturbing pictures of terrorists who are in the custody of Americans. One feels that the person in custody is somehow the "victim" of the Americans.

As far as Sites being "used" by the website, I was under the impression that he was invited to submit photos that he felt represented his anti-war opinion. Again, he choose photos which evoke American domination and aggression. As far as reading his blog, ask yourself. You are in a war zone, following Marines into battle. You don't have a gun. Your life depends on the Marines. Is this the best time for you to be posting your anti-war musings?
