CNN Airs Terrorist Sniper Killing US Soldier Del Williams
October 19, 2006
CNN aired a terrorist sniper killing a US soldier. They blacked out the screen when the bullet hit, but that did not stop the sound or description that they went on to share.
According to CNN, The graphic video of 10 sniper attacks was obtained by CNN -- through intermediaries --from the Islamic Army of Iraq, one of the most active insurgent organizations in Iraq.
Are critics correct in their assessment that CNN is full of terrorist sympathizers? Well, after their report on In the Footsteps of Bin Laden, there might be a case.
Why did the terrorist feel confident in sending CNN the footage? They did not just receive one tape, but multiple; all confirmed in the validity of the actions that the sniper took.
One of CNNs analysts called the sniper attacks the most effective thing they have seen. The deadly tactic is one the U.S. military also uses to take out insurgents, according to CNN. They seem be telling them how good they are at using our strategies to kill our men.
Whether someone agrees with the war or not is immaterial. The point is that some people have the audacity to kill our men and send our news organizations the footage to show of it. That takes a lot of chutzpah for any enemy that America has. It takes even more for an American owned company to broadcast.
I know that there is freedom of the press, but has CNN ever heard of decency? Do they think because they are Friends with the enemy that that will stop them from kidnapping one of their journalists? Perhaps it was just a showing to beat the competition, but maybe the competition has enough class not to show an American being gunned down by a terrorist.
I agree with you 100%, but where are the elected-officals outrage ? We need there help too.
Well if CNN thinks it is OK to kill our solders then I think CNN and it's reporters need to leave the USA. Yank there license, jail thier reporters, sieze thier property strip Ted Turner of his usa citizenship and deport him.
just deliver the corpses to Mr. Wu's pigs.
Have ANY elected-officals said anything about this yet ???
Are they still M.I.A. ?
This is just one more reason , why I am not voting this year. If the Republicans want to win in a couple of weeks from today, they NEED TO ATTACK CNN for showing this.
Many of us have kids/sons over there, and SEEING THIS MAKES ME SICK !!!!!!!!!!! and *()&^%&%$#&@& !!!!

GROW UP!!!! You have a civic duty to vote. Not voting is nothing more than quitting and handing over power to the Dems.
The Republicans are far from perfect. However, letting the Dems take power is dangerous.
Excellent points....if we don't vote we are actually voting for a democrat.....and there is no fate worse than that!!!!
CNN is engaging in not only irresponsible reporting but also anti-American behavior by using the video of a murdered American to promote the newtork's belief that we should withdraw from Iraq. Or perhaps the airing is simply a desperate attempt to garner ratings. Either way, the decision is disgusting and CNN should be thoroughly condemned for its actions.
We should start a list of advertisers on CNN and the New York Times. It is time we stop helping enablers of treason.
Glad I'm not at CNN HQ right now...
Your scenario already happened. They tried to get a Marine tried for murder. He shot an insurgent that was wired with a explosive device. They called for his prosecution because the scumbag was in civilian clothes.
Ba$tards !!!!
Let us hope that freepers and every american with an ounce of patriotism left will call every advertiser cnn has left and tell them you will no longer buy their product if it is advertised on this treasonous network!!!
This is why we Vote, to make sure these terrorists are never in power.
Pray for W and Our Freedom Fighters
