But guess what? The photo, according to this Newsweek caption of the scene, is not of the Nov. 19 incident in Haditha involving our Marines, as the UK Times would have you believe.
Read the caption:
"Insurgents in Haditha executed 19 Shiite fishermen and National Guardsmen in a sports stadium."
Our Marines did not kill these people.
The terrorists did.

This looks like the Duranty Foolitzer Winner for the Year.
And not surprising that another Times lives up to its name once more.

Yep... they just throw so many TURDS agains the wall, in hopes that in the long run, a few will stick.
They figure we can only shoot down so much BS.
"They try and deny that the error was intentional. Then why was the photo cropped to remove images of bound victims?"
Answer: It was clearly deliberate.
The British media are beneath contempt.

I have come to realize what TRULY SICKENING CRIMINALS YOU PEOPLE ARE PUPLISHING THIS DISGUSTING NAZI PROPAGANDA FILTH...you call a newspaper.
Truly DISGUSTING... Be ashamed of yourself!
Might be on Fox, they're owned by the same person
whatever you guys did it worked as the photo has been removed from the story...
The Pajamadin strikes again. Lamestream media shows their yellow streak again.

I can see bound bodies in the Times photo. My impression is that it may actually be a second shot from the same reel rather than a cropped version of the same shot - the angles look slightly different to me. I don't know enough about what they can do with photos to be sure though.
Either way, lazy work from the guy who pulled the files pictures seems more likely than deliberate malevolence here, and it has been corrected now.
Someone needs to inform President Bush, and get him to shut up.
The British "press" outdoes itself trying for the title of the Vilest press of all.
Lots of competition out there for them, though.
As conservative as I am - and as much as I appreciate other conservatives taking prominent positions within the media - I cannot help but think in general Michelle Malkin is just a right-wing version of those hysterical left-wing journalists. As is Ann Coulter for that matter. I think both of them at times border on being racist
"I cannot help but think in general Michelle Malkin is just a right-wing version of those hysterical left-wing journalists. As is Ann Coulter for that matter. I think both of them at times border on being racist"
Is Michelle anti - white? And I think Ann hates all despots equally. Lots can be said against both but I don't follow your remarks.
