CNN (and probably the others) are really playing up a picture some troops took of a picture on a wall from a building captured in Iraq. The painting features 2 airplanes plowing into the 2 trade tower buildings.

Now, this I would expect from FOX (Fair and Balanced my ass!), but CNN suprises me a bit. I feel like this is one of those "emotional tugs" on our hearts to round up support for the war.

Of course some Moslems and especially Iraqis hate us and will paint pictures like this. But wtf...is this supposed to be the "smoking gun" linking Iraq and the terrorists?
