CNN - Plays Into the Hands of the Enemy (Knowingly)-

This post is Rated R for language. I decided that this is one of the few cases since 2003 where it is entirely appropriate.

CNN has a video of snipers shooting at and killing American forces. Here is how they frame it:

Almost 2,800 Americans have been killed so far in Iraq and one of the most dangerous insurgent opponents is the sniper. CNN has obtained graphic video from the Islamic Army of Iraq, one of the most active insurgent organizations in Iraq, showing its sniper teams targeting U.S. troops. The Islamist Army says it wants talks with the United States and some Islamist Internet postings call for a P.R. campaign aimed at influencing the American public. The video is disturbing to watch but CNN believes the story, shocking as it is, needs to be told.

Yeah, I'm sure CNN agonized over the decision to post the video of terrorists killing American troops.

Bottom-line: CNN knowingly plays into the hands of the enemy.

Thank you for posting this; CNN has a storyline (Blog) on this. You can get to it from CNN's web site and then add a comment (I added mine a few hours ago, but it hasn't been posted). This action by CNN is beyond disgraceful, but oh-so-typical of the liberal media who are working hard to get our troops killed and support the terrorists. CNN loves to give aid and comfort to our enemy, and this story shows it in spades.

The Commie News Network is probably helping to fund these terrorists in Iraq. In a perfect world, CNN, SeeBS, the NySlimes and all of the other socialist, anti-American and anti-democracy media outlets would get exactly what the deserve to get. Unfortunately, this has never been a perfect world.

Let me get this straight. The American media won't show the jumpers from the WTC because of it's graphic nature. But they have no problem showing insurgents killing Americans in Iraq. CNN you suck!

I read CNN's response on that link. the basically say: "Hey, the moonbats dig seeing US soldiers being executed... they want more!"

CNN is complete GARBAGE!

"savage is going ballistic over this"

I heard him today too. It was very powerful radio. And here is the bitterest irony of all. During a commercial break the station I was listening to played an add for Clint Eastwood's new movie about the raising of the flag on Iwo Jima. The tagline for the ad was:

The photographed that changed the course of the war

The press, then and now. We are in very serious trouble.

I went to CNN's site and filled out their criticism form. I told them they just love to see American blood, didn't they? Further, I told them that I thought that they were sensationalizing the war with intentions in seeing American mortality numbers increase.

I wish I could send them this:

"Watch CNN - For the ghoul in you"
