Drudge: American Soldier Captured (?)I hope not; if this is true, of course, our prayers are with this man. But there are reasons for doubt. First of all, it's just a picture, not a video, which is more easily faked. Second: A statement posted with the picture suggested the group was holding other soldiers. I think if there were "other soldiers" (presumably US) we'd know about it by now. And that name-- "John Adam"? Why not "John Smith"? It's quite possible this is all true, and of course that's horrible. On the other hand, this may be a desperate hoax, trying to "divert attention" (as Josh Marshall might say) from the impressively-successful elections of Sunday. posted by Ace at 02:44 PM
CommentsIt's a hoax, I'm sure of it. I blew up the picture and you can clearly see manipulation. http://www.conservativefriends.com/viewtopic.php?t=1150 Someone over at Wizbang also found a GI Joe doll that looks exactly like the captured soldier. http://wizbangblog.com/archives/004955.php Posted by: Drew on February 1, 2005 02:47 PM
I question the timing. Posted by: senator philabuster on February 1, 2005 02:54 PM
Drew, your eyes are better than mine. The picture looked odd, I agree, but I don't have any expertise on photos, and I can't tell. What particular signs of manipulation should I be looking for? Posted by: Dianna on February 1, 2005 02:54 PM
I think Michele has the best explanation... Posted by: cadrys on February 1, 2005 03:02 PM
Dianna: If you look around the mouth area in the closeup of the photo, you'll see that the skin abruptly changes color in a roughly oblong area. This is a classic sign of photoshopping. The other two places that I mentioned are much harder to see and may not be manipulation, they just don't look right to me. However, with Fark, Wizbang and a number of others pointing to the GI Joe doll, it's pretty well a forgone conclusion. Posted by: Drew on February 1, 2005 03:10 PM
Mujahadeen brag of capture of 'GI Joe' Doll? compare the claim of a captured American soldier Posted by: Jim Oberg on February 1, 2005 03:14 PM
I'm claiming 'doubtful' on this. The first thing you do with a prisoner is to strip them of all weapons and gear. This POW shows a vest with smoke grenades and flashbangs attached. Even boneheaded terrorists take the time to remove potentially dangerous gear. I could be wrong but I doubt it. Posted by: Doc8404 on February 1, 2005 03:20 PM
Jim, Cadrys, Thanks so much for the tip! It's wonderful. Not only was no soldier captured, but these assholes have exposed themselves to a powerful weapon-- ridicule. Posted by: ace on February 1, 2005 04:36 PM
This serves to remind us that while combatting the threat of Islamic terrorism and Al Queda, we should not forget the true danger we face - Cobra! The fact that Cobra Commander is still at large and staging captures of brave GI Joe troops is a rebuke to this administration's triumphalism. Posted by: SparcVark on February 1, 2005 06:29 PM

ANOTHER LEFT WING ASSASSIN ATTEMPTS TO KILL TRUMP
If I understand this, the left-wing Democrat assassin attempted to get into the White House Correspondents Association dinner, and was stopped at the magnetometers, which detected his gun. I guess he pulled out the gun and was shot by Secret Service agents. Erika Kirk was present.

Important Message from Recent Convert to Christianity and Yet Super-Serious Christian Tuq'r Qarlson: Actually Muslims love Jesus, it's Trump and his neocons who hate him
Tucker Carlson Network Trump's trolling tweet was ill-advised, but Tucker is just lying when he claims the Christianity-hating President of Iran was "offended" by this. He's one step away from announcing his official conversion to Islam. He literally never stops praising Islam. Well, he suddenly became Christian two years ago, there's not much stopping him from converting again. You can track Tuq'r's official conversion to Islam with this Bingo card.
People say that the bearded man in the video of Fartwell molesting a hooker looks like Democrat Arizona Senator Rueben Gallego, said to be Swalwell's "best friend" and known to take vacations with him.
@KFILE 21m So the campaign is collapsing due to the truth of the sexual harassment allegations. That hissing sound you hear is the air going out of the Swalwell campaign. UPDATE: No it wasn't, it was just Swalwell one-cheek-sneaking out a fart on camera Eric Swalwell more like Eric Farewell amirite thanks to weft-cut loop.
