Did you look to see if it was a false proxy?

I can't read Arabic, but that site is jihadist propoganda.

But apparently they aren't very good at it.

[RasterMaster]

Even better than GI Joe...that's R. Lee Ermy (a.k.a. "Gunny")! "Now DROP AND GIVE ME 20, Dirtbag!"

[ChadGore]

Hmmm a Saudi Hmmm

[truthluva]

[But you know we may have had to borrow vests from some other country since we sent our men and women into battle unequipped, if you catch my drift. :)

You from Canada too?]

Vests and action figures sold separately.

But the Saudis are our friends ...

[BigSkyFreeper]

The true location is Eindhoven, Netherlands. There is a proxy server connected into the front end of the web server. The Lat/Lon of the proxy and the web server are identical, which tells me, they are in the same room.

I love this picture wc. I've loved this entire thread all day long but I have to go and make dinner so my husband thinks I was busy all day.

[BigSkyFreeper]

Trace route will tell you the exact location of the server. Whois just tells you who owns the domain.

[Colonel PK]

If they do this for real, let it be known that from now on all insurgents will be buried with pigs. They will never get to see the 77 virgins, nor come close to Allah.

[GoldwaterChick]

I'm glad I know what that means now! Be sure to check 399, 407 and 498 - priceless!

[BJungNan]

I need you all to look at this photo and tell me if you think the vest is what is being issued and worn in Iraq. Also does the M-16 shown look small?

Did this turn out to be a case of better fact checking on FR than in the MSM? Is this another FR MSM busting post right here?

[BJungNan]

Oh my gosh, what a find of that toy soldier!

[Jay777]

It made it on Britt's grapevine!

[BJungNan]

Could this be a "Buckhead" moment?

You got it!

[GoldwaterChick]

Ping!

[Billthedrill]

Ohdearohdearohdear...I've been at work sneaking a look at this all afternoon long and trying not to bust a gut laughing. Another epochal FR thread.

Now, the doll in the pic is one thing, but that gun will actually get a kid busted in many grade schools in the U.S. The 2 1/2-inch toy one, that is.

[wimpycat]

Make sure you put some flour on the end of your nose and get your spray bottle (that you use for your hair) and spray some water on your face. Then you'll look convincing.

[Buckhead]

Clearly, you are another one of Karl Rove's secret agents.

See you at the next meeting.
