Well, duh. It was another case of the MSM taking the word of a dictator and becoming propaganda outlets for the enemy. Happens time and time again.

Post Only, right?

Just like Freepers taking the word of Dana Millbank, Politico, CNN, NPR, the Nation, and The Atlantic. :)

12.58 This is a passport photo of Hana Gaddafi, the adopted daughter the autocrat claimed had been killed as an infant during a Nato bombing raid, uncovered by the Irish Times from the Gaddafi compound.

Ouch! She may have survived, but that NATO ugly bomb did a lot of damage.

[editor-surveyor]

She looks pretty dead to me :o)

[GeronL]

How many decades have liberals pounded Reagan with this lie? I guess they just say “oops” and be done with it?

[GeronL]

lol

[agere_contra]

I’m not being fair to Hana: after all, who looks good on a passport photo?

[Excuse_My_Bellicosity]

That is obvious. Saddam wasn’t the inventor of the destroyed “baby milk factory”. This tactic has been around as long as there’s been a news media.

"“Hana Muammar Gadafy” got an ‘A’ in an English language course."

I wouldn't be surprised. When daddy is the dictator deciding who lives or dies would anyone have a set big enough to give his little girl the D+ she deserves??

[Drill Thrawl]

She needs to shave.

[Mr. K]

I dont know... with the right makeup clothing and hairstyle she could be very not guilty

[trisham]

I guess it was five o’clock when that photo was taken.

[GeronL]

those “arched” eyebrows have to go.

[marktwain]

The lies that the MSM is responsible for propagating are legion.

[Mr. K]

I hope those are not the saved and tatooed on kind

if so they are terrible

I just gotta ask..... WHY are you watching ZeroBama's press events, anyway?

[Excuse_My_Bellicosity]

Oldest trick in the book. Any country that has a news media hostile to the sitting administration can count on this kind of garbage from the ragheads. It works so well because the people question nothing.

During GW Bush’s two terms, it didn’t bother anybody that Saddam with his thousands of tons of WMDs suddenly vanished in 2004 like a fart in the wind. The media constantly bounced between several lines of criticism and couldn’t decide which one to run with. Nearly nobody looked at the schizophrenia of the media and questioned it. Bush’s refusal to defend himself or his policies also helped the media naysayers immensely.

I have become so disgusted with the news media’s bias that I haven’t watched in maybe 20 years.

Just a couple of days ago, I made the mistake of tuning in to I think NBC because I wanted to see if Khadaffi was dead. They showed a brief segment on Ronald Reagan’s bombing of his compound. They mentioned the only result was Khadaffi’s 18 month old child was killed. They then showed an extremely ugly picture of Reagan. I honestly believe these people are worse than the old Communist regimes.

I immediately turned it off and will not make that mistake again.

I remember reading about the exploits of General Doolittle and the first bombing of Japan. The Japanese news were full of schools and hospitals being bombed completely ignoring the pictures of some refinery or factory that was hit.
