The left ‘magic bullet’ seems to be the M-193 cartridge (introduced in 1964 and no longer in use since the M-16A2 was introduced which uses the M855)

“Ace of Spades has some interesting thoughts on AFP’s deceptive, ham-fisted attempt to massage the copy accompanying the picture, which it did shortly after the Magic Bullet Lady fraud had been exposed:

CORRECTS BULLETS TO UNSPENT

An elderly Iraqi woman holds up two unspent bullets
at her house following an early coalition forces raid in the predominantly
Shiite Baghdad suburb of Sadr City, 14 August 2007.

Ace says: “Ummm... that’s not all that was corrected, AFP. The old caption said those bullets hit her house.

Now that you acknowledge they were never fired, of course you admit they could not have hit their house.
Funny how you just omitted that part without actually acknowledging your error there.

Why not just let that caption remain? The woman claimed these obviously-unfired cartridges hit her house. Why protect a liar from being exposed? Unless, of course, you have some interest in protecting a liar.”

Wow, the water from the Diyala River sure is clean. And isn’t it convenient how they have set up a system for you to extract water from the river via water hoses.

Check this out, from a new Fantastic Four comic book:



More thrown bullets. It's getting scary out there.
