Originally posted by mixin visuals: wonder why baghdad bob has his butt posted in that same building. because thats where all the reporters are for his propaganda purposes, or because he feels safer there because they are there? so i wonder why in the world an honest working iraqi sniper would be there? yeah its real suspicious that a sniper would be there... get real |
Perhaps because if he would go back to Saddam every day it wouldn't take long for the allies to take them out? Maybe because it is his job to keep the reporters (dis)informed?
No one said that there where no snipers in the building. I said that the reporters at the scene didn't here any fire coming from the hotel. Not one reporter has said that they heard fire from there. The reports from the beginning where that the sniper where in the lobby. Then on the roof. Now they didn't shoot at either so what does that leave us with? There where though reporters in the lobby and on the roof. This probably, as I said before, just was an mistake. From 1.5km there is little difference between a man with an anti-tank weapon and a reporter with a big camera on his back. The question is why did they fire on a building they knew where full of reporters if they weren't 100% sure it was an Evildoer�?
