Snapped Shot

... the irreplaceable Cox and Forkum. Don't leave now, guys! If you quit cranking out your masterpieces, then the terrorists have already won!

I always love it when someone gives me an excuse to use Photoshop:

Despite the fact that even Reuters itself refers to all of the Palestinians who were allowed across Egypt's Rafah crossing with Gaza last night as "Militants," it is interesting to see that the photography desk decided to strike the term. One wonders how "extreme" a militant must be, before our intrepid Reuters photographers agree to call them as such.



The original caption read, "Palestinian militants arrive through the Rafah border crossing into Gaza September 30, 2007. Scores of Palestinian militants who had been stranded in Egypt since Hamas seized Gaza in June returned to the territory on Sunday, witnesses said, signalling possible new accommodation between Cairo and the Islamist group.

CNN affiliate IBN Live catches the Rage Boy fever!

Thanks to Weasel Zippers, via Hot Air, we get to see a live television interview of Shakheel Bhat, the world-famous Rage Boy. Watch carefully, by the way—IBN quotes Snapped Shot early in the report.



Don't forget to buy your Rage Boy swag here. It really makes him mad. And if you're coming here from IBN Live, feel free to share your thoughts. I always enjoy hearing from new readers!

Oh, and for the record, there hasn't been a new "Rage Boy Sighting" of Mr. Bhat in a very long time. I'm definitely starting to miss the li'l fellow, though his successors are certainly making a valiant effort.

Here's yet another photo of heartless Israeli oppression. Imagine the sheer audacity of this soldier, helpfully pointing an obviously belligerent woman in the direction of the queue—Oh, the outrage!



Someone remind me: Why do we bother employing photojournalists in the Middle East again? The ones already over there are so far in the bag for the "opposition" team that I really must wonder how any editor worth his salt would allow any of their material onto the news wires.

Being "impartial" is one thing, but this is ridiculous. Enough cheerleading for the terrorists already!

Here's yet another photojournalist, showing yet another way for Palestinian terrorists to sneak through the racist, apartheid wall into Israeli territory:



Oh, how I yearn for the days when treason was still taken seriously.

There's an old joke that goes something along the lines of the headline—one that is particularly applicable to this latest Iranian wonder:



Thanks for the laugh, Arash!

Looks like ol' Evo "Commie Pants" Morales is having some kind of stroke, doesn't it?



Beats me. I reckon this is some kind of Bolivian Commie Salute or something, but to me, it just looks ghey.

Update: This is what I'm talkin' about:

Lilliput this isn't: I "just happened" to run across a photo album of Rooster's recent travels around the world. Rooster, it looks like you've made a ton of new friends!





Of course, I wouldn't want to leave the rest of our readers out of the loop, so in the interest of "openness," here is a very special Cutout Rooster Doll™ for you to use in your own projects. Collect 'em, trade 'em, and see if you can figure out where he'll show up next!

(Might as well post this now, since I'd rather not let Rooster's little atrocity hog the front page. LOL, revenge will surely come your way, Roost—I've got a really special pic of yours that I've been saving up for just this occasion!)

Here's another example of yesterday's story, fresh off of the wires today. Are these photographers trying to outdo each other with "touching" pictures of these terrorist families?

Notice the two "blob-like" statues that this family has amongst their collection of artwork. As I've commented on previously, this is a map that includes what is currently the entire State of Israel—which means that this family is fighting for a Jew-free Palestine.

Apparently, their fight continues to be shared by the propagandists in our press.



Somehow, this point continues to elude the national disgraces that populate our State Department.

Picture this: In Glasgow, A declared Muslims-only toilet is installed in a facility that currently employs no Muslims.

Is this, as the Daily Express suspects, a case of political correctness gone mad?

Or is this yet more proof of the future plans of the United Kingdom's first Islamic king?

In related news, the Coming English Mufti also seems to be Islamicizing English history to boot.

No offence to my English readers, but news like this definitely makes me glad that my ancestors chose to break the ties that bound our Commonwealth to yours.

I think this bunch of pro-Israeli protesters have finally found a way to get the press to take them seriously:



Word has it that their competitors are somewhat unhappy with this new situation:



Feel free to peruse my Thug Conferences category for more examples of this phenomenon. And while you're doing so, try to imagine the press taking this group as seriously as they take these terrorist thugs.

Anyone want to take any bets on whether or not this photographer had "other" interests in mind when he went to cover this story?



I'm sure that whatever the final story is, it'll end up sounding remarkably familiar:
