I'm reminded of some video I saw from Iraq. Some embedded reporterette was asking a few servicemen about some gunshots she was hearing. "Are those ours or theirs?" she asked.

The servicemen listened for a few seconds, and agreed amongst themselves that the weapons being fired were AKs.

"So those are ours, then?"

With a look of just-how-stupid-are-you that had to have been seen to be believed on their faces, the servicemen politely explained that, no, those were not ours. I had to change the channel after that.

Well, from the MSM perspective, the AK-47s are "ours."

" This is the AK-47 assault rifle, the preferred weapon of your enemy. It makes a distinctive sound when fired at you. So remember it."
