Little Green Footballs is doing excellent work in identifying photographs actively doctored by Reuters to hide evidence that the so-called peace activists actually had bladed weapons and were attacking Israeli commandos.

Not once it seems, but at least twice.

In both cases, knives were removed from the insurgents’ hands, and in once case not only was Israeli blood removed from the photo, but another wounded Israeli commando was deleted.

Judge the photos for yourself (before and after), and wonder what Reuters is trying to hide. And as LGF reminds us, this is hardly the first time they have doctored photos to make the Israelis the bad guys.

Add Reuters to the Czar’s ever-growing list of news agencies that must not be used as a source.

The Czar of Muscovy

Божію Поспѣшествующею Милостію Мы, Дима Грозный Императоръ и Самодержецъ Всероссiйскiй, цѣсарь Московскiй. The Czar was born in the steppes of Russia in 1267, and was cheated out of total control of all Russia upon the death of Boris Mikhailovich, who replaced Alexander Yaroslav Nevsky in 1263. However, in 1283, our Czar was passed over due to a clerical error and the rule of all Russia went to his second cousin Daniil (Даниил Александрович), whom Czar still resents. As a half-hearted apology, the Czar was awarded control over Muscovy, inconveniently located 5,000 miles away just outside Chicago. He now spends his time seething about this and writing about other stuff that bothers him.
