Sometimes the propaganda is so obvious it’s almost funny.

An elderly Iraqi woman shows two bullets which she says hit her house following an early coalition forces raid in the predominantly Shiite Baghdad suburb of Sadr City. At least 175 people were slaughtered on Tuesday and more than 200 wounded when four suicide truck bombs targeted people from an ancient religious sect in northern Iraq, officials said.

To make it even tastier, there’s another one from July 10, 2007, apparently featuring the same woman, holding another unfired round:

Yet many liberals will take this as proof we are killing civilians for the heck of it.

very pristine... anyone see Oswald?

[GovernmentShrinker]

Interesting. Don’t think I’ve ever seen or heard about those before.

Some Marines are in the brig due to lying Iraqis testifying.

I wouldn’t give a bucket of dog slobber for the whole of the population.

“Bullet Magnet Woman”

Wasn't that a song by Santana?

Gotta love AP’s credulous caption.

Does Baghdad Bob have a mother?

[Gondring]

I wonder if she’s related to green helmet guy from Lebanon or angry Muslim protester guy from Kashmir...then there was the real estate baroness in Lebanon last summer that lost multiple houses in bombing raids by the IAF...*rolls eyes*

Actually, that's NOT where the problem is. The problem is taking the word of an enemy, believing them...and putting our troops in a brig. The US Marine Corp needs to be protecting their own warriors...this isn't taking place in the other branches...now why would that be? Somethin' smells to high heaven on all of this. Goes much higher and I suspect it's murtha who is heading this agenda against our Marines [there are others involved here].

villans for the new batman movie?

We were also having a pretty good laugh about this one over here. Now, I've been looking at the second picture, which is older than the first. Quite a nugget she got there. It looks to be bigger than a .45 but not as long as a .50 BMG, maybe hardcast, polished, pristine, and unfired...which is a good thing because there's a little tip of a ballpoint pen sticking out the top. I'm thinking that's one of those special bullets that writes your death warrant before it zaps you.

“But what’s with the matching stripe running from just below the center of her lower lip to the bottom of her chin?”

Maybe she fell for that old “try and run this quarter down you face trick”

ROFLMAO DITTOS!!!

[MadMax, the Grinning Reaper]

No, Karl the Evil One Rove did it. He secretly flew into Iraq and threw the bullets at her because he has tattoo-envy.

Karl, you rogue!

Next they will be accusing you of Swiftboating John Kerry. Oh the horror of it all.

We have idiots here who move under the flight path near the airport, then complain about the noise.
