Anyone?  ;)

They took it down in typical fashion  ???

Here it is on France24 -- seems to have come from AFP. Sometimes the extent the media will go to to promote defeat in Iraq is truly ridiculous.

(The photo in question is the second picture down, an old lady holding bullets, and its corresponding caption.)

Why would bullets still be in shells if they were shot?
Edit: or are they just weird looking bullets?

For some stupid reason, the images on that site seem to be randomized. Wtf?

[quote]An elderly Iraqi woman shows two bullets which she says hit her house following an early coalition forces raid in the predominantly Shiite Baghdad suburb of Sadr City. At least 175 people were slaughtered on Tuesday and more than 200 wounded when four suicide truck bombs targeted people from an ancient religious sect in northern Iraq, officials said.

Propoganda at it's finest.

Lol I guess someone just threw those bullets at her house then, cause they definately weren't fired from a gun.

It could be poor labeling and those were the type of bullets which were shot... I honestly don't know why they'd lie about something like that... it happens, why falsify it?

The actual bullet is still attached to its casing, not to mention the bullet has no dents or scratches on it at all.

Did you read what I wrote?

Is there something I missed? Those bullets weren't shot.

"...those bullets were the type of bullets...", as in they weren't the same bullets, but were the same type shot at her house, and someone sucks at English in the news industry (as is usual). That's my guess.

What crap. For that we should just nuke the entire region.
