“They’ve taken control of all the main streets and other sections of Ramadi,” a Reuters correspondent reported. “I’ve seen about 400 armed men.”

First the US military said that this was staged.

Second the video had shown no more than twenty terrorists parading in a corner of a city street.

Third Ramadi is a city over 300,000 people spread into a large area of land, it is physically impossible for 400 terrorists control ALL the streets of the city. They can barely control 10% of a city of such size.

Fourth how did the Reuters reporter knew that? Did he personally go into every street of such a large city and proved that the terrorists have controlled it? The LIES of the liberal media are stunning beyond belief.
