Reuters does it again. A classic propaganda Kodak moment courtesy of Reverend Jesse Jackson (and son):

U.S civil rights leader Jesse Jackson (R) inspects buildings in Beirut's southern suburbs that were damaged by the recent conflict between Israel and Lebanon's Hizbollah, August 29, 2006. REUTERS/Mohamed Azakir.

And to think some say Reuters "stages" their photos.

Notice the conspicuous lack of dust on the Reverend's clothes.

(And of course the sign.)

[Sam Hill]

An agit-prop ping.

[shankbear]

What a news whore.

[dead]

Guess who just happened to be shopping in that store before it was blown up!

The sign yes. Wonder how many retakes they had for that picture.

[Eric in the Ozarks]

Follow the money, Jesse.

That sign is better made than the scribbled ones we saw before. I bet the *Reverend* brought it with him.

We make some odd bombs in the USA.

They easily reduce reinforced concrete to a dusty pile of chunks threaded with twisted rebar, but soft objects like fabric signs and dolls remain intact and clean and on top of the rubble. Those clearly are advanced weapons, to be that selective.

[MAD-AS-HELL]

haha! Great picture.

"That sign is better made than the scribbled ones we saw before. I bet the *Reverend* brought it with him."

I was thinking the same thing.

Why would anyone in Lebanon have such a big sign in English? And what are the odds of it surviving in tact such a devastating blow?

[pinz-n-needlez]

Are you kidding, he had his minions bring it. He doesn't actually *carry* things!

[Publius6961]

I wonder if Jesse Jackass ever examined the rubble and bodies resulting from decades-long mindless terrorism in "hymieland" (Israel)? .

Wow. We can all rest now. Nothing is official, or gets done in this world untill super duper uber-official Jesse Jackson inspects it.

I'm actually quite proud to see my tax dollars at work.

[Publius6961]

... and he brought his family with him!

Cool!

[lowbridge]

Jesse: "Hey, you're right! There's LOTS of loose change to be found around these bombed out buildings!"

[Livin_large]

I think this says a lot for American ingenuity and workmanship! An American sign made of fabric can withstand more than brick and mortar built by islamo-fascist!

Buy American!

Gimme some of that Heinie Looterdude.
