The Confederate Yankee's Watchful Eye

Posted By Blackfive

Bob Owens of Confederate Yankee is keeping a watchful eye on certain anti-USA media outlets that tend to either exagerate or outright fabricate civilian deaths and atrocities.

...I'd remind readers that this operation, just underway, will no doubt result in an attempt by al Qaeda propagandists and journalists with questionable sources to allege war crimes, as similar debunked charges were brought up during and after the battle of Fallujah...

And in the next post finds what could be described as an attempt:

...People's Voice post attempts to re-raise the specter of the "illegal" use of Mark 77 firebombs and white phosphorus ordnance that they and other questionable media outlets claimed were used against civilians in the 2004 assault on Fallujah and in the initial invasion of Iraq in 2003. The article features three graphic pictures of victims that the site intones were killed with firebombs and white phosphorus.

There's a funny thing about at least two of those three pictures, however...

Check it out (be sure to read the end for Bob's rip into the People's Voice) and be on the lookout for recycled photos and rehashed claims.
