Beirut, we have a problem...

By Brian C. Ledbetter · Wednesday, August 9. 2006 21:17

Here's a good example of the "destruction" caused to Beirut by those dastardly Israelis.

Looks normal, right? We've been seeing shots like this for the past week or so, right?

Wrong!

I came across this picture while browsing an archive of Associated Press wire photos. The date this photo went out? 18 July, 2006! So, when you're looking of pictures claiming to show fresh damage like the one below, just remember:âYou are not getting the full story from the news wires!

Then again, the Benighted Buffoons in the press would never lie to us... would they?

I'm going to file this under "time shifting." Keep posted, more updates are surely to come!

(My hat's off to Powerline Blog for breaking this story!)

Here is what a handful of random people think about this article. But first, the fine print:

The opinions expressed here, even where approved for display, do not necessarily reflect the opinions of this website, the management, or any other entity or organization, with the exception of the Vast Zionist Conspiracy. Those opinions we represent in style, yo. Please keep the language in these comments clean, as this is intended to be a family-friendly, work-friendly website. Comments not compliant with this policy will be edited for content where necessary. Abusive or otherwise illegal comments will be reported to the proper authorities, up to and including the aforementioned Vast Zionist Conspiracy. The Management cannot and will not be held responsible for commenters making a spectacle of themselves, even if The Management are the said commenters in question. In other words, don't take yourself so seriously, folks. We're all here to discuss the news, and more importantly, to have fun. Now go get yourself into some OCD treatment program—you obviously need it if you actually read all of this mess.

Let's have some fresh damage already. Where Nazi goes, rubble grows. The rubble must continue to grow else Hezbollah, (Nazi) will continue to cause it in Israel now, USA tomorrow, (already?).

Don't pull the punch. When the people of Lebanon and no one else decide they have had it with rubble, realize it's Hezbollah that's causing it and throws the Nazi bums out, peace will happen and the rubble can be removed. That's the only known fix for the Nazi problem.

http://www.hoax-buster.org says Nazi has been around a long time and always comes in the name of God. But which God is it? No! Not the devil!
