LOL!, here, and wanted to make sure all y’all saw this. Apologies if you’re already in the thread.

Only slightly more blatant propaganda, than AFP’s usual fare.

Hey!

Aren’t those AK rounds as well? 762.39 short and fat..

Just sauce for the Goose if they are...

They are also shiny and new..

If they are, arrest that old Bag and Hang her if she does not tell where she got them.

I don’t think the 6.8spc is widely enough used to make that a really good guess. i could be wrong tho.

She lives in freaking Sadr city, she probably has to wade through empty casings to get to the bakery. Does the woman never look down????

The photo is still up on the Yahoo site, linked to AFP. They haven’t pulled down their Jihadi Agit-Prop yet!

Are they even US rounds?

Nope; 7.62x39mm AK rounds. Far too big for our 5.56 mm M16/M4 rounds...

They look like UN-spent (brand-new, unfired) .223 rounds (NATO 5.56 mm).

If so, they are US Military.

I’d like to know how she stole them.

wasn't there a photo of a house that had been shelled about a year ago? Once again, the rounds were still in their casing. Maybe we are dealing with special Russian Nesting Doll munitions.

Depends on your definition of 'winsome,' your definition may not be the same as mine... ;^)

It explains the Burkas - it keeps their fantasies from being crushed by reality. It also might explain the frustrated anger guys in those regions tend to have bottled up, ready to explode - literally.

Thanks for the ping. There's a logical explanation - the bullets hit her house, bounced back down the barrel and into the brass before it was ejected. Twice.

Could happen to anyone.
