    Italian television station Tg1 is running images of a car purported to be the one used by Giuliana Sgrena. If this is the car then it would contradict earlier reports that Sgrena’s rescuers had used a truck. If accurate, the…

    Riddled with 300 – 400 bullet holes?
    I’d still like to see an Ace of Spades HQ’s TOP TEN LIST of why 300-400 bullets didn’t turn Sgrena into a piece of Swiss cheese with an Italian accent. After all, no one quite makes top ten lists like Ace.

  6. Seeing is Believing
    Below are the AP pictures of Giuliana Sgrena’s car, the very same car that she claims was shot at “300 or 400 times.” Jeepers! Three or four hundred shots by the elite and expert 3rd Infantry Division, and you have…

    Actually, it turns out that Rusty Shackleford is lying, and the pictures were not of the car in which Sgrena was travelling on March 5, but one which was damaged on February 5, the day after she was kidnapped. These hoax photos only prove not only that the rightwing cannot tell the truth about anything anymore; its sole purpose is to defend the indefensible.
