79. A previous post of the OP's that turned out to be erroneous got a lot of attention before...

… being shut down by the OP. Many people believed on their say-so that MSNBC had fired their Muslim reporters/anchors, and got very angry. Many people also debunked the claim thoroughly, but every new respondent to the thread saw only the OP and joined the anger at the presumptive injustice. 138 replies ain’t chicken feed.

Note to Jury: This is readily available DU public record. I participated in that thread, having seen Ali Velshi reporting from the war zone many times in the previous days, obviously still in the employ of MSNBC.

My point is that once again the OP is being requested to verify their sources, and to examine said sources carefully. Once again, every person responding is having their emotions whipsawed. One of the more rational has pointed out that “the making and release of execution videos is an established terrorist tactic, but out of character for the IDF.” I think that’s well worth considering.

Second note to Jury: I think the issue of legitimate sourcing is also well worth considering. It’s in our TOS, after all.
