CNN: Iranian Revolutionary Guard found among Hezbollah fighters.

[Fridays Child]

Blitzer calling his Reuters alert on the subject "official confirmation."

Is there any doubt, now, that this is a U.S. war against Iran?

[Kutjara]

1. I'm surprised it took the CIA...

...so long to run up the outfits in their Strategic Sewing Center. Maybe they wanted to be sure to get them just right.

[Fridays Child]

3. Strategic Sewing Center...

:rofl:

Yep, the Israelis stuffed some dead Hezbollah soldiers into Iranian Revolutionary Guard uniforms.

[The Stranger]

4. Overheard:

"Damnit, Paul Wolfowitz, take off that fake mustache!"

[Selatius]

2. We're going to need international corroboration instead of just CNN/Reuter

What does German and French intelligence say? What does MI6 say about this?

[Fridays Child]

6. Hey, Wolf Blitzer said it and he did so immediately after...

...his Armegeddon interview with God's own Pat Robertson. You need more than that?

By the way, for those keeping score, Wolf has now referred to Cynthia McKinney's statements (whatever they are) as bizarre.

Nope. No bias problems in the mainstream media. No siree, Bob.

/sarcasm

[Rex]

5. They need it or another 911, anything to distract.

He just said McKinney exhibits 'bizarre behavior'. Wolf, seriously, Wolfie, comeone, COME ON, you whore for PAT FUCKING ROBERTSON. No agenda there... :eyes:

[Fridays Child]

7. We're on the same wavelength...

[Cleita]

8. Since, no one tells the truth anymore. I would have to see

that tatooed on his ass before I believe any accusations made by our news media.

[raindrop]

9. right on schedule

Democrats are beginning to line up and speak with one voice about getting out of Iraq, DINOs are being kicked out of the Party, and lo and behold, within 24 hours we've got Iran back in the news again. Funny how that works, huh?

[Kagemusha]

10. Were they dressed in NVA, er, Iranian uniforms?

Just checking.

[malaise]

12. Funny that they put the so called Hezbollah captive on TV

and said they weren't violating the Geneva COnvention because they don't wear uniforms. Liars should have better memories. By the way aren't their Americans in the IDF?

[htuttle]

13. Polish uniforms, I think

Apparently they attacked a radio station in Germany.

Or I have my timelines confused again.

:shrug:

[Fridays Child]

15. You know, it's getting to where they don't even care if...

...their propaganda is believable.

[Swamp Rat]

11. SRN: Mexican Immigrants found among American fighters.

[KoKo]

14. Blitzer was having an erection and foam was coming out of his mouth

reporting this "BREAKING NEWS" from an "Israeli TV STATION!" :rofl:

Go ...BLITZER! This was just after Blitzer's interview with his former Boss Pat Robertson about how Robertson was in Jerusalem meeting with Olmert about how the Armageddon is Progressing! OMG! GIVE ME A BREAK.

PROPAGANDA!!!!

16. For what it's worth, the Reuters story

Iranians among Hizbollah combat dead: TV

Members of Iran's Revolutionary Guard have been found among Hizbollah guerrillas slain by Israeli forces in southern Lebanon, Israel's Channel 10 television reported on Wednesday citing diplomatic sources.

It said the Iranians were identified by documents found on their bodies, but gave no further details on how many were discovered or when. Neither the Israeli military nor Hizbollah representatives in Beirut had immediate comment on the report.

http://today.reuters.com/news/articlenews.aspx?type=newsOne&storyID=2006-08-09T215039Z_01_L09100220_RTRUKOC_0_US-MIDEAST-LEBANON-IRANIANS.xml&WTmodLoc=Home-C1-TopStories-newsOne-2

So it's "diplomatic sources", not the Israeli military (and it doesn't even say it's Israeli diplomats). Does CIA psyops (who are allowed to plant stories in non-American media) count as "diplomatic sources"?

[KoKo]

17. Reuters the "land of the Doctored Photograph!" Yeah....let me read it!

:rofl:

[Little Star]

19. To bad that everyone is such a bunch of liars. Who knows

what to believe. People have learned a lot from the shrubs administration. Ya just never know.

[Greeby]

18. And so it begins.....

:scared:

[Fridays Child]

20. Now, CNN reports that Israel has "approved" a wider war.

They have no intention of stopping until they destroy Lebanon and the Palestinians. And, if they have to do Bush's bidding to keep the ordnance supply stream steady, so be it.

[drfresh]

27. I think it began in 2002 -nt

[flpoljunkie]

21. Funny, CBS said they were possibly Iranian. No mention of their being IRG.

[Fridays Child]

22. A more tempered report but only by a little bit.

I'm not even willing to believe that they were Iranian. The first casualty of war is always truth.

[everythingsxen]

23. So Iran lied about sending volunteers to fight against Israel?

http://seattlepi.nwsource.com/national/1107AP_Mideast_Fighting_Iran_Volunteers.html

(If the Seattle PI isn't credible enough for you, http://news.google.com/news?hl=en&q=Iranian%20volunteers%20%2BLebanon&sa=N&tab=wn )

[Fridays Child]

24. American media are never fed disinformation nor do they pass it on.

Do I have that right? :eyes:

In any case, Israeli TV reported to Reuters that the dead Iranians were IRG. I remain skeptical.

[everythingsxen]

25. There is a difference you must admit..

between remaining skeptical and "refusing to believe they are Iranian" as you said previously. The former implies that it is possible that they are in fact dead Iranians. The latter implies that no matter what, you will never believe they are Iranian.

Given that the IRG fought with Hezbollah during the first war in Lebanon and that Iran publicly announced that volunteers were headed for Lebanon, I don't think this is some amazing, sinister plot.

[wiggs]

26. These are people who contemplated painting a fighter with UN colors

in order to hasten a conflagration with Saddam. They are not to be trusted.

When will MSM start reporting in the context of all the proven lies from this administration? When we hear a government report, the first thing we should all be doing is doubting its reliability....and the "news" outfits should be the first to put a report in proper context by reminding us of 6 years of deception and error. DU has a dozen threads on the shocking history of fake news and fake reports coming from the WH (no need to repeat)...yet CNN gobbles up any official announcement and hands it right to us.

This scares the hell out of me....true or not.
