Apparently the ones printed in the Boston Globe, were.

and about eleven thousand other sites. Just do a Google search for Boston
Globe fake photos.

You *really* need to get out more, Andy. There *are* unbiased news sources in
the world, you just have to look for them a bit.

Apparently, you're still mislead. BAD started the post by talking about
pictures in the Mirror, which were faked pics of British troops. Doug is
referring to pictures from the Boston Globe which are faked pics of US
troops raping Iraqi women. But I like the part where you blame your error
on Doug. That was brilliant. Now, if you'd actually read the sites from
the links Doug and I posted, you'd know what BAD posted and what Doug was
referring to were two different things. That's rich coming from someone who
just chided someone else for not reading a report.

Your original comment in this thread implied that other photos, aside from
the ones BAD started the post on, had been faked. Sorry to have been
mislead by your tautological post.

I like your snide tone, though -- very admirable!
