Pulitzer Prize In Terrorism

AP photographer Bilal Hussein was on the radar screen of US forces prior to his being detained in a chance encounter April 12, 2006. He was a stringer working in Fallujah who filed numerous reports and photos that seemed to need a high degree of cooperation from the terrorists. He has been in custody for 19 months and will soon face trial by the Iraqi government on charges related to his activities with Sunni insurgents in Fallujah and Ramadi. Evidence against him is expected to be given to the Iraqi government this week.

Geoff Morrell, Pentagon Press Secretary had this to say: “We believe Bilal Hussein was a terrorist media operative who infiltrated the AP. MNF-I [Multi-National Force Itaq] possesses convincing and irrefutable evidence that Bilal Hussein is a threat to security and stability as a link to insurgent activity.”

They noted ongoing reports coming out of Fallujah that did not match the reality they were aware of. Stories of children and civilians being killed would come out, but in areas where the Marines had not conducted operations.

Bilal Hussein had free reign to be anywhere and was often taking pictures in the company of insurgents and terrorists. He and the other stringers who made up AP’s Pulitzer Prize winning photo team managed to capture assassinations as they happened. They were on site at bombings within seconds to capture the carnage almost as it happened.

This access and the number of false reports of civilian deaths led the information operations staff to take note.

This team was comprised of US Public Affairs and Intelligence personnel as well as a Special Ops unit to exploit any actionable intelligence gathered. It was an extraordinary measure and only the fact that Hussein and several others were acting as terror press agents prompted it.

Gads does this make the blood boil. The Enemedia inside the gates.

The AP are not supporting terrorists, they ARE terrorists.

You got that right.

ROFL!! Can I steal that?

I do hope everyone is familiar with why the word "stringer" in relation to this guy is a big deal?

From the Christian Science Monitor last January 

The Vietnam history you haven't heard

Before judging the Iraq war, get the facts on what really happened in the critical early years of the Vietnam War.

He did NOT “infiltrate” the AP. They knowingly recruited this terrorist operative. In a Washington Post apologia laced with anti-American invective, AP terror-supporter boss Curley actually defended this terrorist last weekend. No wonder real Americans hate the media. Here's a link to Godwin's reference. http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1930195/posts?page=11

"We believe Bilal Hussein was a terrorist media operative who infiltrated the AP..."

"...but we're not sure it's all that hard to do"

Glad you like it, Girlene. Hope to see you over there in the comments.

They will all be exposed for the traitors that they are.

And having been exposed will parley their notoriety into lucrative political careers. Hell, some of them will run for President.

The Powers That Be are much more tolerant of treason than of vigilantism, thus the scarcity of Mussolini moments.

Even a half-witted bureau chief should have spotted this...
