Remember this guy?

You may remember "Green Helmet Guy" from the fighting in Lebanon this past summer. Actual video footage has proved that this guy was directing casualty recovery like he was on a Hollywood sound stage for maximum propaganda effect. Video shows him instructing rescuers to load a child on to a stretcher and into an ambulance only to have them repeat the act so the media could get more shots.

Well none of this has prevented the AP from creating a homage to the great propagandist of Lebanon in the form of a slide show at its own website. Right column towards the bottom. Tried a direct link, no luck.

Update: BizzyBlog sends a good link to the slide show.

RR: Wirro the liberal robot says: Lets see, I can believe the AP and Editor N Publisher or I can see with my own eyes his actions in the video linked to in this post.

Since I am a liberal I will not believe what my five senses tell me but will instead swollow the lefteist media love fest with those who wish to propagandize against the jooooooossss.

I am a liberal robot from the past sent here to believe whatever the liberal media says, yet I see the video and I see him directing the propaganda...but the AP says... but it is right there in the video...but...but...does not compute...does not compute...danger...danger...independant thought processes surfacing.....can't control....must believe the media....danger....danger...wwwhhhhhhhooooossssssssss.....reboot in progres....liberal command directives restored.....must spread word to others not to believe their own eyes.....kill all humans...must destroy joooooos....must believe media....

Since you just fraudulently created comments under my name, why I should take your word for anything?

What a lying fraud. Go ahead and ban me will ya? I won't waste any more time bothering to come here to read what you have to say, now that I know you change people's comments. But then you probably won't have the guts to tell people that you changed my comment and put it under my name.

Speak for your self coward.

RR: My mistake, I had put RR in front of it (as I always do when I reply in the original comment) and backspaced over it when I added the Wirro part. Will fix. Until then chill out. Nobody is going to read your nonsense anyway.

By the way, if you are going to call me a coward, fuck you, you snivelling pussy. whhaaa...whaaaaa..wwhhaaaaa...the bad man made fun of me whhhhaaaa....thats what has gone wrong in this country, our men are turning into pussy whiny little bitches like you...wwhhhaaaa...whhaaaa...fucking crybaby
