Filkins clearly had empathy for men at war that Kevin Sites didn&#8217;t. Reading Filkins&#8217; account of the Marines being shot by fascist jihadis (this site is now an &#8216;insurgents&#8217;-free zone) masquerading in the uniforms of the Iraqi Army makes it clear what a cheap propaganda artist Sites is. These Marines were moving through a killing field in which their adversaries were busy beheading people in blood-filled execution rooms. How are the Marines supposed to act? If that particular wounded jihadi had been being playing possum, faking like those &#8220;uniformed&#8221; Iraqi Army soldiers, Sites and his buddy from NBC, not to mention everyone else in the room, would have been blown to smithereens.]]>Sun, 21 Nov 2004 06:52:22 -0500<![CDATA[Roger L.
